Congratulations guys!!

For my case, my AOR is august 10 but so far I have not received any GUs on my profile. I am not sure what it means. Although I called the IRCC number last week and they said my eligibility is passed in the month of november but not sure how much time still it will take

Do you remember the time when your call got connected. I have tried 10-15 time today and got the standard "We are experiencing high volume today" message.

Ok, My last ghost update was on 9th or 10th, I think it was 3rd ghost update.

1st Update immediately after MEP 7th December
2nd Update 9th January
3rd Update 10th February

I hope I get something in the next two weeks.

Have you stayed in any country apart from your COR for more than 6 months? Just trying to figure out if my application is complex and if it would need more days.

Honestly, my excitement for canada is not at the same level, like it was 2 years back. and I am not sure why.

Yes, I have lived in the UK for a while.

I managed to connect to an agent today. She said all the steps have passed and I should expect Ready for Visa mail very soon. I couldn't understand the name of the VO becuase of the agent's accent. Also her volume was really low.

I think it was totally random, I followed these steps to save time and called atleast 30 times between 9 30 PM - 10 PM IST and twice after 11 30 PM. My second call went through.

Hi. You can call +1 888-242-2100 from TextNow app and follow this:
DIAL IRCC Number
0:20 PRESS 1
Enter your UCI Number
0:30 PRESS 1
Wait for the voice to start and PRESS 3220 rapidly
You will hear the call being connected to an agent and wait time estimate.

If you hear that you are good to go! Good luck!

I am not sure how this happened but I got a ready for visa email and I missed it. I searched "IRCC" on Gmail and saw an unread email today.

I got it on 9th Feb, I remember checking my inbox multiple times that day because I saw a ghost update. Not sure how I missed it. I was searching IRCC in inbox today to find an old email and found this unread "Ready for VISA" email. I can't beleive this happened to me. :|

No it wasn't in SPAM, I missed it somehow. The express entry portal still says we are processing your application.

Yes, that's right. There was no message in IRCC for me either. I wasn't too surprised, because I read that somewhere in these forums that it does not get updated until they issue the COPR or something. Even I am in the process of submitting it.
