its been 5 months since I passed medical, CEC inland candidate, called yesterday to CIC, still same status, criminality check in progress, eligibility under review, security not yet started, agent said like you may not get result in 6 months window, many candidates are passing 6 months window, also mentioned that sometimes delay happens because of delay in getting response from third parties.
Not sure what happens in criminality check? it has been in progress for me since last 3 months? do not have much travel history as well, not sure exactly what they check in criminality check.
