Why these three are different:criminality, security and information-sharing sub-statuses appear only inside an applicant's own IRCC status tracker login - no public dataset contains them. They are logged manually, so their percentages use the 45 cohort members who report sub-stages, not all 71.

How this page is built
Methodology & limitations
What these numbers are - and are not
- Who is counted
- Applicants who created a timeline in the GetNorthPath PR Tracker with an AOR date in May 2026 and the inland stream. Each applicant counts once.
- How milestones are recorded
- Applicants log each stage manually after seeing it in their own IRCC account or PR portal. Nothing is read from IRCC systems; we have no access to any application file.
- Sub-check denominators
- Criminality, security and information-sharing rows use the 45 members who report sub-stages, because those statuses are only visible inside an individual's IRCC status tracker login.
- Refresh cadence
- Aggregates rebuild weekly. This page was last refreshed on July 29, 2026.
- Publication threshold
- Cohorts below 25 tracked applicants are not published to search engines, because small samples produce misleading percentages.
- Known limitations
- Self-selection (people who track tend to be actively engaged), reporting lag (a milestone may be reached days before it is logged), and uneven program mix mean these figures describe this community, not all IRCC applicants.
Common questions
About the May 2026 inland cohort
Where is the May 2026 inland cohort right now?+
As of July 29, 2026, 56% of the 71 tracked applicants have logged the start of a background check, 63% have passed medicals and 6% have a final decision. The cohort is 67 days past AOR. These figures are community-reported and refresh weekly.
Am I behind if my cohort is ahead of me?+
Not necessarily. Spreads of several weeks per milestone are normal even within one AOR month, because visa office, document completeness and background-check depth all differ. A useful rule: if you are more than one full milestone behind the cohort majority and past the typical day for that stage, check your IRCC account and consider a follow-up.
What are the self-reported sub-checks?+
Criminality, security and information sharing are visible only inside each applicant's own IRCC status tracker login, so members log them by hand. Percentages for those three rows use the 45 members of this cohort who report sub-stages, not all 71.
How do I join the May 2026 inland cohort?+
