AOR Nov 14, called for second time today, getting close to 7 months… Criminality in progress, Security has’t started yet. VO is Edmonton. Info sharing completed, does that mean they have all the info gathered and just reviewing it? The person over the phone said they don’t know what does info sharing completed mean

Info sharing means that your fingerprints and info has been shared with the Five Eyes (USA, UK, AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND). If there were no criminal activities reported in those countries the info sharing results comes as NRT : No Reportable Trace.
so far so good.
 
I submitted all my ADR almost a week now. No updates. Still waiting and hopeful. AOR NOV 17.
 
Another waiting game. 6 months officially since AOR.
All finally completed in tracker on 28th May, exactly 6 months since AOR, no update since. I wonder what it's like to have the luck where things get done back to back [-_-]

Congrats with all checks completion. Just a little bit left!

Please advise if you had such message in a tracker:
Activity status updated: Background verification
Background verification
Background verification status has been updated to In progress

Please advise if you had such message in a tracker:


In tracker throughout it just said in-progress and the day it change to completed it same "Background verification status has been updated to Completed"
In GCKEY initially it said in-progress then N/A and once tracker showed completed it said some along the lines that we are progressing your background check in GCKEY.

My GCKey did the same…months ago. Background check: N/A > In progress > We are processing then back > N/A. In the tracker, it just says In progress. I wonder what’s going on behind the scenes -_-
 
Some quick tips when answering to a PFL (and probably also when you write explanatory letters)
Font: ARIAL 14
Short sentences and quick to the point.
do not hesitate to cite case law (if you can find any related to your case)
do not hesitate to mention that you try explain stuff in order to avoid an "UNREASONNABLE" decision.
Number your attachements: 1.. 2.. 3.. etc...

and finally, always hope for the best :D

Oh yeah, have in mind that agents have around 5 to 7 min to process documents and files. So try to be concise, and quick to your goal.
