Ok, so I’m the rarer case of an IP2 account holder maybe! But let me tell you my experience. I moved to IP2 on 26th Oct. I mailed Ralph Goodale (MP) last week and his office told me that my Criminalty was passed on 26th Oct (same day as the update hit my account) but my eligibility is still in process and security isn’t started...

Not that rare, I’m in the same ark elegibility in process, criminality passed on Oct 16th (same day as IP2) and security not started as per a week ago or so.
Well, I'd rather not be the rare case that gets rejected in IP2 thank you But yeah, jokes apart, it IS irritating to be in IP2 for a month, after being in IP1 for 4 months, and having read EVERYWHERE that a long IP1 means a short IP2

Ours will arrive... eventually... although I feel I’m better off waiting for when my 6 months are due than having false hopes, we are almost there anyway, and I find hard to believe that the other 20% that exceeds the 6 months timeline are all here in the forum
Hey @B. B. and @lavanya31 some hope for folks like us! Managed to get through to a super helpful agent, indeed a veritable angel called Aria. Try IRCC today, seems a good day to get through. Called 4 times, and managed to sneak in past the mean voice that says 'All our agents are busy. Please check your status online or call another time' after 25 minutes of wait time on my fourth attempt.
Nothing new to add on the application progress though! She said it all looks good and the eligibility is almost passed. As soon as it is passed formally by the VO, the background check will resume she said. I pressed her to confirm if that means security will start, and she was a bit wary, but finally said yes, background check resuming SHOULD lead to security starting. Whew! Feels reassuring to hear these words from someone sitting in Canada. Also, looks like application is still in Ottawa and not transferred out elsewhere. Dunno whether that's a good or bad thing though...some say Ottawa is a faster office wrt processing applications, while others (like us stuck there) are not so sure eh...
