We sent on June 24th and it was delivered on June 27th. Application was sent back because we had sent our children's PR cards as their IDs. We sent it back and then we received AOR on July 27th.
What's your location as I have seen some location(for e.g. Toronto) application gets processed faster than others. As you have received your AOR, you can sit back and relax :) as you might already know the official processing time is 26 months.

When did your ECAS update changed to in Progress? Also, did you receive any email for latest updates?

2. When did you re-submit package?
3. When did the re-submitted package get delivered?
4. What is your physical presence days?

Nopes, No test invite as of yet. on ECAS it says " We started processing your application on September 14, 2022." i dont know what this means and then the BG was completed on Sep 16th.
I was reviewing the trend, between June and July and I noticed many people received test invite between 5 to 30 days after BG was completed.
