Hello All , I have a question for you , my application was submitted in October the AOR received on December and till this date I am still background check in progress is that normal, is there anyone else still stuck in background check ?
Same status for me, AOR received on Jan 25, since then no update , all fields are in progress.
Only update I have is they completed my security checks and criminal checks are pending from RCMP.
As per IRCC helpdesk, I can expect test invite sooner than Criminal checks completion as they are saying everything is good and nothing is pending.
So hoping for the best

Okay, I don't see FHA as well. I have added "FHA" to the spreadsheet.

Next time on, please clearly mention at the top of the post that the update is for "FHA".

Please post an update once she receives the test email and once she has taken the test.
