@French 2014 As far as I know physical presence check is the first step in the application process to ensure that you meet the requirements and only then your application is forwarded to your local processing office. I'm not sure why the agent would point out "physical presence". Did you ask for further clarification as to why it's done at this point in time? Frankly, there's not much we could do except waiting for further correspondence.
Thanks buddy,no I did not ask for further clarification. Isn't the physical presence check border checking!!??

Can I ask how long ago you got CIT0250?
Is nationality related to obtain this?
It depends what they are looking for. In my case they asked about US Entry Exit Report and Itineraries. One year has been passed for me and my application is still in process after Test and Interview. So i would recommend to take it easy and wait

Got oath invite 3 days after taking the test. Just want to share my timeline again to people who are still waiting. I believe my case is non-routine? I was asked for A LOT of additional docs earlier this year. Documents like travel records to my home country (which was really difficult to get. I had to ask my family over there to get it for me since it's not possible to have it done at the consulate here), us entry exits, fingerprinting, police clearance from my home country(because I totaled 6 months there during the eligibility period), health records from BC and ON, colored copy of every passport page, etc. Not sure if it was an RQ or PPQ-QAE. Some peace of mind for now.

I would send a web form, it is probably a glitch in the system, specially if you can see your status updated on ECAS with same time and date as oath. I am suggesting to send an inquiry through web form just in case.
