I filled my PR January 2020 and it already go through AOR, Medical, FBI certificate, RCMP certification. Then 5 months ago I got an email saying that my file has been transferred to Edmonton Alberta and there no action to be taken so I have been waiting and I haven't get any other updates from them.
Hi ,
How many days took to get RCMP certificate and when background started and updated in system?

Thank you for your reply
It’s means after submitting fingerprints to update on IRCC website background completed it took 40 days?
No that's not what I meant, I said that it took 40 days from the day I did my fingerprints for RCMP to actually send it. For IRCC I haven't got any updates from them. When I try linking it nothing shows that they received it.
 

just do it later

Sorry to hear that am also facing the same problem I just try not to think about it because matter what we say or do the truth is that we can't change anything and the immigration them self can't even explain why they take some of the decisions they took.
From what I have red either they transferred the file to finalize it or the the case officer transferred to higher officer for further clarification. I have contacted my MP and IRCC replied “ JUST WAIT “ .

JUST WAIT is not an answer in this broken immigration system!

Is having lawyer on pr file making the process slower? Because all of my friends who applied later than me and got their permanent residency before me did not apply with lawyer, they applied themselves. I have lawyer and I still did not get anything. So I deleted my lawyer and linked my application myself. By the way they all received invitation to pre arrival services letter after they linked their account. But I don’t have such letter or message on my cic account. I have nothing in my cic account while one of them has approval letter and other friend has eligibility passed letter and medical passed letter. What is going on here? Did I make a mistake by applying with my lawyer? I am sure I will do my citizenship application myself.

You are good, don't worry it doesn't matter whether you are applied through lawyer or your self, I also applied with lawyer, and today only I removed him and linked my application with my account
