My wife is in Kingston Jamaica and the visa office is KVO.
My online tracker and GCkey has not updated in weeks. It still says eligibility & background verification not started on both. I am obviously past that stage! So the trackers is defiantly not Realtime.

Very true, it is often out of date for many applications. That is why it is important to use the information in the portal, GCKey, emails received, and the ghost activity frequency as an indicator of progress and stage.

Don't rely on the new tracker. Ours has not update since Dec 6 and still says background and eligibility not started. My wife's application is finished. See my signature for the timeline.
