My understanding is that this is pretty normal. The security and background checks may be in process even though it says not started (just the way they work).
No-one can say how long, though, it might take.

Depends on country. It must be a legally-valid wedding in the country where performed, at minimum. (Some additional complications for certain countries.)
In a lot of countries, a religious marriage would have to be registered with civil authorities, and that would be part of documentation. But check the country-specific requirements.
Thank you. I truly hope this is the case.
Is anyone still waiting for PPR who submitted in March 2020?
What is your timeline?
I'm sure you'll be notified for a MR soon. There's a Dec (24) applicant who received MR this week, Jun 7. Keeping my fingers crossed for you! Keep us posted!
Wow there was MR this week. I only hope there is someone to explain how the team works. Is this Dec applicant you referring to also using the AVO. I have received the Pre Arrival Services but no MR yet. And a June 2020 applicant. Please anyone to shed light on this. I was even thinking they were not sending MR this month. But surely the MR was sent on 7 June?
Yes please, I have linked the page below for reference.
