if the status is in IP2, how will you come to know your VO?
If you are at IP2. The file is waiting for a senior officer's review. IRCC will re-calculate whether you meet the eligibility for the program based on the submitted documents. Passing the eligibility criteria is the most important thing. Your criminality must be passed based on the submitted PCCs. They will start with Security Check as part of the final step. Basically, the Canadian government will try and determine if you have any negative security history. Generally, the trend is once you reach IP2, chances of rejection are less but you never know. I hope this helps! If you have not ordered GCMS notes, you should consider doing it now.
All the best
Thank you for the IP2 significance
So, the October folks are slowly trickling into the 180 days region as per immitracker. About 10 applicants with October 1 AORs have hit the 180 days milestone today
As per my progress bar I have 6 days left

(April 5) but will hit the 180 day mark on April 3rd...sigh
if the status is in IP2, how will you come to know your VO?
You can raise a case enquiry form, call IRCC, or check the primary office in your GCMS notes.
Does the country you’re applying from also affect the processsing time?
From the trends, the is definitely some significance.
This is so frustrating.
ITA: Aug 14th
Submission: Oct 7th
Fees paid: Oct 7th
Meds passed: Nov 21st
VO: Ottawa
Then nothing since that!
Already asked for the GCMS notes right after the Meds passed, but nothing really substantional on it. I requested a second one, but it would take around 30 days to be sent - so I'm still waiting for it to arrive. Could anyone share the number they tried calling CIC?
Deadline is April 7th and I'm still on IP1.
Same timeline Aor 7th Oct, same VO and im also in IP1 till now! Called CIC and they gave me exact same status thats..nothing has started yet.

Really informative thanks a ton
How do we order GCMS? Also there are 2 options, one is eGCMS and other being GCMS+. Which one should be opted?
You can raise a case enquiry form, call IRCC, or check the primary office in your GCMS notes.
What is the difference between raising a case enquiry form and ordering gcms
i think my AOR 13 IS JUST JINXED..unlucky number...can't believe i have been in ip2 since 12th march and the agent is saying to me that eligibility is still under review...what the heck! couldnt even sleep last night after calling
this is the only community where i feel like family...at least i cant rant here and vent out a bit
Another week passed and no ghost update!!

Guys does anyone has any idea of how to deal with the below situation?
Aor-24th Oct
Ip1 & Meds- 23rd Nov
called agent on Feb 19th- Eligibility Met, Criminality & BG Check : not started.
i see on immitracker that some of the files after 27th have started to progress. i am really afraid if my file is just parked somewhere for no reason coz as per my calls with cic agents, they kept saying there are no files required and everything looks good w.r.t documents.
any help from anyone here could be of great help to me.
VO please ? I was at the same stage too for sometime then later things got done in a few days and I received PPR.
Another week passed and no ghost update!!
Sterile week... they have a huge delay in the applications processing... from my analysis on myimmitracker, just 39% of October AOR (FSWO Stream) got their PPR and just 68% for september
