During the processing of an application, you will receive 4-5 GUs. Some applicants do not receive any. A ghost update is merely a movement in your file. To know what exactly they are, you need to refer to your GCMS notes and also remember the date you had them to match them. However, the ghost update can be a mundane movement from initiating your BGC or a major one, as getting final approval.Can a GU indicate eligibility passed? & is it the Background check start that triggers changes to BGC in the profile?
The BGC refers to criminality and security. This is why the BGC status changes twice during the processing of the application. Since your AoR is Oct, it may be very likely that criminality, info sharing is done and eligibility is in progress. Once Eligibility is passed, the BGC will be in progress again and will indicate that security has been initiated.
