First, please remain calm..... deep breath..... don't panicHey @Bryanna
OK so my wife contact her MP again and this is what we got from the MP office.
I'm super stressed and worried now coz Feb 2018 is like only 2 months from the delivery date. In case they refuse my application I would not have enough time to re-apply.... Bryanna please help me what should I do now. Do you reckon a immigration or Human Rights lawyer... I can't afford to miss this it's my first baby
MP (email)
we have received a response from IRCC regarding the status of """" TRV application, please see below.
IRCC has advised security verifications are still in process. if you do not recieve any correspondence from IRCC by
February 1st 2018, Please let us know.
Good day Elisabeth,
Thank you for contacting the information centre of memebers of parliment and senators.
We have verified the information you provided on behalf of you consitituent.
Since your last inquiry dating from 31 aug 2017, there is no new information available at this time. The security verifications
are still in progress.
There are no specific delays for the comletion of background verifications. Rest assured that the responsible office will contact your
contituents directly if anything is required or when a decision has been rendered.
First, please remain calm..... deep breath..... don't panic
Honestly, there is no reason to panic or to think the worst. It is Status Quo even at this moment. No changes. No new background checks. Nothing. The situation is still the same as before.
It is the MP who has mentioned the date of February next year. Not IRCC. There's a big difference in this.
Please do NOT.... I repeat do NOT..... complicate your situation by hiring a Human Rights lawyer. There are no human rights violations in your case. It could affect your future PR application. To be issued a visa is a privilege, and not a right. If IRCC needs XX months to clear your file then you cannot request an express service.
Is there some information/details which you have not shared on this forum that could explain why there are detailed/prolonged security checks??
Have you traveled to or lived in a high-risk country (not Pakistan or Australia)?
Is your name a common one? Could someone else have the same identity/name as you?
Did you apply for PR or asylum in another country?
Have you ordered GCMS Notes?
Maybe your answers are negative to these questions. But I was just wondering why there's a delay in completing the background checks.
Regardless, again, don't worry. Remember that after you're cleared for the TRV, your PR application could possibly be cleared quickly too
Just maybe it's your stay in Saudi Arabia that's causing a delay. Maybe.Thanks for the cheer up bryanna
Well I don't think I lived in high risk country (Saudi Arabia, pakistan and Austrialia)
I'm not sure if my name is common or not but I don't think so.
Nope
And yes I did order GCMS notes last week.
Thanks once again for the advice
Just maybe it's your stay in Saudi Arabia that's causing a delay. Maybe.
I had come across at least one similar case.... Pakistani applicant (he was a senior), but the background checks took longer because he had worked in Saudi for some years and later, he had a history of visiting Saudi quite often

Dear @BryannaNo, IRCC does not need any additional documents.
Processing was/is/continues to be at the Background Check stage i.e. security checks (probably doing fingerprint and name checks with FBI, Interpol, RCMP, UK Police, etc). That's why it is probably taking so long

RCMP = Royal Canadian Mounted Police
Maybe IRCC realized it was a mistake and corrected the update@Bryanna
Yes that I know but if you remember I told you I never upload any additional documents but the status was changed on 17 oct
"Review of additional documents The additional documents you provided have been uploaded."
and noe back to no additional documents needed.
Maybe IRCC realized it was a mistake and corrected the update
