Stuck in IP2 since October 30th, is this common?

No it used to work earlier- unfortunately, doesn't work now

indeed... "not available for express entry applications anymore (Mar 24, 2016)"

Do you know if I could more details on my application using that eCAS thing? https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/security.do?lang=en

I tried but I get : "We were not able to identify you using the information you provided."

Maybe eCAS doesn't work with the Express Entry online applications?

I might be wrong but I heard that was the old platform to check the status of your application. Now we can access the same updates in MyCIC account.

You're on IP2 anyway, which is supposed to be the last check before PPR. If I were you I'll go with ordering the notes first.

I think I'll order the notes after all... Do you know what happens precisely between IP2 and PPR? (i.e. what do they check further?)

I think one of the sticky threads details the entire process, you might find more info there. In my understanding, IP2 is the LVO double-checking your documents and confirming the Officer's decision or not. Some applicants are also randomly chosen for security screening, which takes longer. But your AOR is till recent, I wouldn't worry about that yet.

What gets me a bit worried is all these people waiting long times in IP2: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/fsw-outland-june-july-2017-aor-lets-connect-here.501372/page-171#post-6581008

I know what you feel, but chill, you're almost at the end of the process.

Thanks, really appreciate it

I'm stuck in IP2 since August 2...

Anyway, there are many cases of IP2 days from 2 to 90 days. Once you go beyond 90 days (like I did) it becomes uncommon.

Wow, ok... could you please let me know when you get your PPR?

 

[mr_j936]

Follow my profile, I will do my best to let the universe know but it seems once you pass 90 days in IP2 it can go up to a year... easily, because it means they are sending you to deep security screening.

Will do, thanks. I hope they won't do that long and deep security screening !

Below is how my account looks like at the moment, it has not changed since October 30th; is this normal?

I am actually in the same situation maybe even worst cause I am in IP2 since Nov 2016 and I got accepted 9th of July 2016! and mine showing exactly the same and when I call they said its behind security background check. Pls update me if you got it cause no one seems knows anything about this not even CIC that when we are gonna receive it!

About my case that is similar to yours, they didn't say its under security screening it wanst even in any notes showing that I am in security screening and even when I called they said its just security background check! So if I were you would request the information and you will receive it within a month and then you can see whats happening with your case.

Sorry for not updating my post, but I got my copr one month ago.

I wish I could say more, but I have no idea what works exactly behind the scenes, all I can do is empathize with your stress, and hope for the best, if I recall correctly, there is a way to call them to ask them about the case. This is what I had in mind after requesting my GCMS notes.
