@legalfalcon Thanks for sharing the links. I have an officer review of A11.2 Assessment R75/76 Eligibility. I believe that would mean passed?

Is there any way to know whether security is passed? Does it reflect in the notes? There was a month’s gap between me applying for the notes and calling IRCC who confirmed that it’s pending final decision.
If your Security is blank/redacted on page 2 of Gcms Notes Assessment section then it's underway. Many people on the forum are reporting that security screening has not started even after Eligibility is passed or is taking lon.
@legalfalcon

Thank you for your reply on my post and for all the help u guidance to us applicants. Just one quick question, based on the statements below,

"Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

We verified the information on file and can confirm that:

  • The background verifications are currently valid.
  • The security background verification is currently valid.
  • The criminal background verification is currently valid.
Does it mean the our eligibility check is still in process? because some has the statement like "The eligibility verification is currently valid".
Are the verifications, final or it can still change?

Thanks again!
VALID means "For a document—legal, not expired, and accepted by IRCC." Source
While it does not mean Passed, it usually can be interpreted so. Given your Security is valid it means Eligibility verification is passed.

Hi everyone i joiin this group a few weeks ago,and i am happy i did... i am outland my husband is a canadian we have a laywer who is doing the paperworks for us but i have'nt received any update since febuary is that normal
Hi, it's not out of the ordinary these days where delays are common. Since you have a qualified lawyer, he/she should be providing you with a progress update and can (should) request your Gcms Notes for free. Even your husband in Canada can make this request for Gcms Notes on your behalf.

Thanks. Yes after that I had contacted IRCC and they mentioned that everything is done and the application is just pending a final decision.

The webform are ambitious. However, the criminality happens early in the process and should be passed, unless you are inland applicant or have not yet given the biometrics.

As regards, eligibility, if it does not conclusively say that you have passed or met the eligibility requirements for the program, then your eligibility may have been recommended passed and awaiting a final determination from an officer.

To read on stages of eligibility see my previous post at #2,521

When IRCC refers to something as valid, “valid” here indicates, that the documents required for the specific stage are “legal, not expired, and accepted by IRCC

To read on webform responses see https://bit.ly/3nRRT8V

However, the GCMS notes will give you a very clear picture. If you are contemplating requesting GCMS notes, fo by what they say.

Thanks a lot. BTW I am in Group 1 named CPCO COVID RFV. I am assuming it's a group of people whose application is at 'Ready for Visa' stage but due to COVID it's delayed.
