Ya, most MPs won't do anything unless the application has gone beyond the estimated processing time on IRCC's website (which is 17 months as of today)

Send an email to CIT-SCARBOROUGH@cic.gc.ca explaining how you haven't received any update...also call and send a webform.
Thank you. I will write to them. I have tried calling so many times as early as 8 AM but never seem to get across to the agent. I
Keep trying until you get through, sometimes it takes 6-7 tries
Try calling this way

I called them 17 times before they connected me hahahaha, but I kind of automated the process. You can program your calls and my "code" was like the following 18882422100,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,1,<YOUR UCI NUMBER HERE WITHOUT THE SIGNS, JUST NUMBERS>#,1,1,1,4,,,1,1. This "code" basically waited and clicked buttons for me. I don't know if you can do it on an iphone but for android you can save this as a contact and it should work.
I just realized that in my notes email, they said the following:
What does the part in bold mean? My security clearance was redacted and I understand it but I think it is related with 21 The detection, prevention or suppression of subversive or hostile activities but not with 22(1)(b) law enforcement and investigation. So, does that mean there's some sort of investigation about me, or is this also related to the security clearance redaction? Did any of you guys email include such a thing?
Been there, done that...
Yup that is another way of calling too

It seems like they couldn't figure it out as well hahaha. The thing is, the redacted part in my notes is marked as s.21 which according to some other posts, means under section 21 that part was redacted, but there's no mention of s.22. So, I don't know what is going on. I don't even have a single parking ticket. I don't know what is wrong.
Hmm I see. thank you. Yeah, it looks like s21 is common but 22 is a bit weird. We'll see I guess hahaha.
S.15,16,21,22 are all different ATIP clauses under security to not disclose the info by redaction, which are also included in GCMS notes either by IRCC or CBSA. I wouldn't bother much about that.
When SS is in process, CSIS issues only single page letter and "Security Assessment/Advice" paragraph first line states clearly that "Your Security Screening case is still in
progress...." - while for the rest, bother not.
When SS is completed, it contains cover letter (containing that same paragraph also clearly states "your security screening assessment is completed....", plus it contains additional page(s), mostly redacted info, again bother not - as its completed anyways. Don't mind the hush hush security clauses.
In a nutshell, what matters is the line, indicating whether its still in process or completed. The rest is irrelevant for us, in all the random lottery system. Where one gets strands in singularity of black hole while others gets at breeze, name it whatever that every case is diff and blah blah. Take note on 2023 applicants where for around 95 percentile, SS didn't triggered (no threat), and for 2021/22, SS was triggered for like most of applicants in every month (all threat). Flawed biased lottery system - obviously many may disagree. Even the timeline of SS is unclear, yes make it sound logical, bcoz every case is different, you know eh!
Hmm I see. I mean my security clearance looks like Passed when I match "Status: Passed" from another section. So, I guess I'm waiting for the officer to pick up my file.
