What's the status of your background check? Mine is Not applicable.
"Background check - We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information."

Basically it's sat at the same thing for months. :(

Update from me: Got our AOR2 April 12th and it turns out the app will be at the Ottawa VO (that surprised me). ECAS updated on April 22nd. We booked a flight and plan to declare dual intent in late June. [Background info: Outland, spousal. New forms. Meds done upfront. Schedule A and PCCs sent when requested. App received: Feb 8th. SA March 20th.]

Hi Priya,

I was going to ask the same. I was requested my passport and it reached them yesterday. Anyone here has any idea how fast they process things and return your passport.

We got a request for a letter stating that my partner's son was excluded from our application. We already submitted it 6 months ago, but have done it again. Hopefully this is the last thing CIC wants before we get a visa.

Hello Angelengel,

I started CSQ application in February 2011 and got nomination after several documents request letters and higher french language result, in October 2015.

I filed visa application in March 2016 and was called for interview in Sydney in May, but couldn't attend May interview. I attended interview in August 2016 and got medical request the following day after interview.

I did medical in September 2016 and got PPR in May 2017.

What a journey!!!
