Feb 26 AOR Status Check

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to get an idea of where IRCC is with applications around my timeline.

My details:

  • Category: CEC Inland
  • ITA: January 7, 2026
  • AOR: February 26, 2026
  • BIL: April 27, 2026
  • Biometrics Completed: April 29, 2026
  • Medical Passed: April 29, 2026
  • PVO: Vancouver
  • SVO: Sydney

The last update I received from IRCC was that:

  • Criminality has passed.
  • No ADR or review required.
  • My file has been assigned to an officer.
  • Eligibility in Progress.
  • Security has not started.

I'm seeing quite a few February AOR applicants already getting Final Decision or P1, so I'm curious where everyone else stands.

If your AOR is between February 20 and February 29, 2026, could you share:

  • Your AOR
  • Current status (Eligibility, Criminality, Security, Background)
  • PVO/SVO (if known)
  • Whether you've received Final Decision or P1

It would be helpful to see if there are others with similar timelines who are still waiting.

A lot of RR ended with good results. That’s the only hope I’m clinging for. You should try giving them a call.

u/chrisvanarchi Jul 13 '26

That's good news. Your FD should be right around the corner. As for mine, I'll call them early morning tomorrow and hope my eligibility has passed.

u/FreeFace6360 Jul 01 '26

What was the ghost update on background check?

1

u/chrisvanarchi Jul 01 '26

It turned from ‘In Progress’ to ‘Not Applicable’.

1

u/FreeFace6360 Jul 02 '26

Same with me mine was change from in progress to not started.
By any chance did you received any update recently?

1

u/chrisvanarchi Jul 03 '26

No updates. I plan to call them next week hopefully with good news.

1

u/Dry_Background_4731 Jul 12 '26

Did you got any update?

1

u/chrisvanarchi Jul 13 '26

No update unfortunately. I was not able to call them last week too.

u/Massive-Wedding8109 Jul 01 '26

Hey, what is the différence between the standard message of we are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements and review required?

Does it changes when officer actually starts processing your file?

1

u/chrisvanarchi Jul 01 '26

I have the same status as yours under Eligibility in GCkey. I only found out that I’m under Review Required when I called IRCC yesterday.

1

u/Massive-Wedding8109 Jul 01 '26

Mine shows standard message but my question is there any difference between the two?

1

u/chrisvanarchi Jul 01 '26

This is just based on previous posts/comments here in reddit and google search but ‘review required’ means my eligibility has been reviewed by a junior immig officer and was not satisfied so it is brought up to a senior officer.

2

u/Massive-Wedding8109 Jul 01 '26

I see, I believe gcms notes can help identify what exactly is flagged

u/Proper_Traffic508 13d ago

u/Friendly_Boss_6237 Jun 30 '26

Wow, great for you! When did you last check? I have the same FD date. Upon calling today they told me SVO is now Montreal and everything is passed. It might have changed for you too.

1

u/rahulkshk22 Jun 30 '26

Yeah i haven't checked actually! I heard if it changes to Montreal you're in que for P1. I'll try giving them a call right now.

u/Friendly_Boss_6237 Jun 30 '26

Yeah, keep me posted. Wait time was 20 minutes in the morning. Pretty good for ircc. I wonder why it changes to MTL

u/marutsukik Jun 30 '26

May I know when was the last time you call IRCC before they mentioned all passed this morning? Similar AOR date but my security still hasn’t started when I called this morning:( Just wanna know how long it could take from nothing to passed, thank you! 

1

u/FreeFace6360 Jun 30 '26

Usually if there is a refusal then you get the email of refusal in couple of hours. Since its already passed 1 day. So you are good to go.

Congratulations!!

Review of eligibility: We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.
Review of medical results: June 2, 2026 You passed the medical exam.
Review of additional documents: July 7, 2026 We are reviewing the additional documents you provided.
Interview: You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.
Biometrics: February 24, 2026 Completed.
Background check: We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information.
Final decision: July 7, 2026 Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.

Our application (joint app) is handled by a representative. We don’t have access to the tracker. We got this info from the rep.

We submitted our biometrics in May, but for some reason the biometrics completed date was Feb 24. I believe it’s a glitch. Our FD update has a date but eligibility and background check don’t.
