I don't think it's something to be worried about. What you need to monitor is your bear tracks. If it's says application complete, then you are fine. The spot for CV is showing pending for me because I changed my uploaded CV before the deadline. I also updated my address which didn't reflect on the portal. I sent a mail about it and I was told the most important info to follow is the one on the bear tracks and to make sure I updated my address on it.
My bear track shows Priority 1, application complete but decision pending. I submitted Oct 29 but my last reference didn't get to them until 2-3 weeks before the deadline.
PS: I applied to U of A health promotion stream (distance learning)
