Hello,
Wanted to share the below

May 6 Webform response:
  • The background verifications are currently valid.
  • The security background verification is in process.
  • The criminal background verification is currently valid.
May 11 Webform response:

If anyone could help please, is there a difference between valid or pass? I've noticed ppl had passes and others valid. What's the difference? Thanks

Verifications are valid means that they have been passed and are valid, i.e. have not yet expired. Based on your responses, all your stages are passed and security is ongoing.

Hello Senior Members,

Can I please know what it means for my eligibility?

@legalfalcon @vggr can I please get your opinion on this?

You will find below useful information that we hope will help understand the process and current status of your application for permanent residence:

The responsible office is not currently verifying if your application meets the eligibility requirements under the immigration program for which you have applied,
you may be contacted via your account if additional information is needed.
· The security background verification has not been initiated.

· The criminal background verification is in process.

The medical examination results on file are expired

Hello Senior members,

I got below reply through the webform.

  • The responsible office reviewed the eligibility requirements under the class for which you have applied. You can expect to be contacted if additional information is necessary.
· The security background verification has not been initiated.

  • The criminal background verification is currently valid.
Any help in interpretation would be highly appreciated!! Does valid means pass ? Thanks in advance for your feedback.

The responsible office reviewed the eligibility requirements under the class for which you have applied. You can expect to be contacted if additional information is necessary. ---> no interpretation needed. doesnt say valid nor passed. it means you just have to wait for the recommendation or result of the eligibility review.
 
got this response from web form:

  • We verified the information on file and can confirm that:
    • The eligibility is currently valid.
    • The security background verification is currently valid.
    • The criminal background verification is currently valid.
    • Your file is currently located at the Case Processing Centre in Ottawa, Ontario.
  • While the processing times may vary with each case, we will make all the necessary efforts to finalize the/your application as soon as possible.

    Rest assured that you will be informed as soon as a decision is reached or if additional information is needed.

What does this "valid" mean/imply ? what would be the next steps?

Also I see some people get message like below:

  • The background verifications are currently valid.
  • The security background verification is currently valid.
What is the difference between the" security background verifications are currently valid." and "background verifications are currently valid."?

Its all so confusing.

I think the fact an Officer touched your file is a big step, and more than that:
Final: Approved

So I guess for you it's done. Just have to wait until they start issuing CoPR again.

same situation here, everything was valid on April 9th and no update since, guess they will start giving COPRs after 2nd June when the lockdown is over
 
I just got a webform response and they didn't tell me any detail updates, only said 'We verified the information you provided and can confirm that your application is still in process. ' How can you you get the detailed information, like eligibility , security background , criminal background ?
