Hi,

I am in a similar situaton as you too. MEP was on Oct 20 and the same day I also received the refund letter for biometric fee (since I have provided already last year for my study permit application). However, my biometric status is still showing "we don't need..." and has not changed to "completed". But my biometric information in the upper right side (under my UCI, application number etc.. part) has been updated.

Is it the same for you?

Thanks.

I am in the same situation. Don't know what this means.

Hi @legalfalcon! Is it possible to receive BIL before MED? The panel physician secretary called me since IRCC is asking for a few more tests. Thanks!

YEs, it is very much possible. If you medicals are outstanding and your R10 is passed, you will get BIL before the medicals are passed.

You are too early in the process. Have patience. It takes 8-10 months to an application to process. The eligibility status will show this until the decision is made and the BGC will change 2-3 times.

The general processing times for all programs have increased. As per the 2019 annual report the average time now is 8-9 months, and this was pre-covid.

<https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...nuals/express-entry-year-end-report-2019.html>

How long did it take to process an Express Entry application?
Table 35 displays the time, in months, that IRCC took to process 80% of applications under each program. In 2019, IRCC did not meet the processing standard of finalizing 80% of all applications sourced via Express Entry within six months. The processing time for Express Entry, overall, was eight months. As an alternative measure of processing times, 60% of applications finalized in the 12-month period ending on December 31, 2019, were completed within the six-month service standard.

Table 35: Processing Times for Express Entry applications finalized by year and immigration category, in months

Program	2017	2018	2019
Canadian Experience Class	4	5	7
Federal Skilled Worker	4	6	9
Provincial/Territorial Nominee	6	6	9
Federal Skilled Trades	6	7	12
All Programs	5	5	8

Subsequent to this, IRCC also published the evaluation of Express Entry upon the completion of 5 years of express entry in May 2020. A lot of recommendation have been made in it.

Around a week or so. And thats not true, they do say that we need to wait 6 months,but you can still raise a webform just like you can call them and ask them. They may also give a generic reply sometimes. You can go ahead and try.
But do specify your questions like this:

Is my eligibility passed?
Is my criminality passed?
......

Good luck!
