Such delays are quite common and somewhat normal in RFI processing method. I'd suggest to apply for GCMS notes to get to know about the status is your Eligibility, Criminality and Security checks.
Thanks MNAhmad. I received GCMS in November in which nothing was started. and received awaiting review reply but this time backgrounds checks on going reply. But thanks for your reply. Pray for all for a successful and smooth process at least. because with RFI no one can say speedy process.
