Happy Friday everyone

Hi Alurra when did you submit your application? will these cause a delay on our application?

My application was in around middle of October I guess. I don't know if it will delay it or not. Request was sent rather quickly and I've completed it quickly as well so we'll see. I read that it only takes about 72 hours to clear your prints provided you don't have criminal history that needs to be investigated further. I anticipate mine will be cleared quickly since I have zero police history in any country.
