If receiving the pre-arrival email means that eligibility has passed. What exactly does that mean? Does it mean that the agent believes the marriage is legitimate and that there should not be a possibility of an interview relating to the relationship, unless something comes up during security/background checks? If an interview is required then it might be more related to something that raised a flag relating to the PA and not necessarily a question relating to the marriage.

The reason I'm asking is my husband received the pre-arrival on 21 August and nothing since. Status is still in progress. As far as I can see there isn't a reason for the security or background check to be taking this long as he's never travelled outside India nor has he worked in any of the red flagged jobs, such as government, military or police (he works in hospitality). I have asked my Member of Parliament to check as I'm worried that perhaps the agent who is working on my file and a few others who are also in the same situation, was pulled to work on other files and simply forgot to finish ours.

It is kind of frustrating to see that the normal pattern for NDVO (at least from what I`ve observed in the various What`s App groups) has been pre-arrival and often decision made the same day or next followed by PPR a day or two after that is being followed for most of the October applicants that have received updates and about 4 (probably more) who received the pre-arrival on 21 August not getting any further updates.

Still showing in process. Is there any other way to check status who can’t connect to gckey.
I`m in the same situation as you, my husband received the pre-arrival on 21 August and nothing since. There really isn`t anything in GC Key that will give you a status update. Decision Made is only in ECAS and from what I`ve read on here GC KEY isn`t updated with the decision until after the passport has been returned. Also if I understand it correct PPR is sent via email and is not send through GC KEY. Basically, again from my understanding once you receive the pre arrival email which is sent via GC KEY then there really isn`t anything to check there other than when they return your passport (I believe a field is added when the passport is received by NDVO and updated when it is returned). However as my husband hasn`t received PPR I cannot confirm if that is true or not.

For me nothing has changed in GC KEY since my husband got his pre-arrival email.

Anybody from November here?

Our app was received on Nov 10th.
And I'm just curious if anyone else is around the same timeline and can tell me if your BGC started?
Our online account is still saying additional documents required and BGC hasn't started yet. Its been like this since end of Feb when it was transferred to NdVo. Anybody else?
