Hi. Any update sa application? October applicant here. Background check on process
 
Depends on where your application is processed, your timelines would vary. As well, we would need to know if background checks have started etc. So I guess we do not have a good answer. If you are with CPC-M then you are in good hands as they are faster. If you are transferred to a LVO, depending on which VO you are, things go well or poorly (London and New Delhi are notorious for their processing speed).

From your perspective, i think this is all you need to do (unless the processing centre asks you for more information). As for the time frame on decision, we would need more details on your application timeline to give a meaningful answer.
Here is my timeline

I also received my medical request from London VO on April,16
Medical examination done on April,17 and results were uploaded the same day by the clinic
On ECAS I got "medical results have been received" on April, 20, that means I passed my medicals, it took 3-4 days.
Did you have the same on ECAS ? If yes, then you also passed your medicals. On IRCC site they say it MIGHT take up to 3 months, but not usually the case.
