is security check different from background check?Yes. One is looking for Criminality (theft, murder, etc). The other is looking for Security (subversion of governments, terrorism, crimes against humanity, etc).

Log into ECAS with the Sponsor's details, and tell me what the status of both is...Thanks! I called CIC and they said the background check is completed but eligibility check is pending.
we are Feb 2017 applicants but I was curious to know if security check is different than background check. they are probably waiting on the security check, hence the delay.
Sponsor: in ProcessLog into ECAS with the Sponsor's details, and tell me what the status of both is...
You haven't seen Sponsor approval yet. So, they likely have not started Security.Sponsor: in Process
Applicant: App received.
really?.. So does it mean 3-6 months more...You haven't seen Sponsor approval yet. So, they likely have not started Security.
Not necessarily. When did you apply?really?.. So does it mean 3-6 months more...
I have also reached out to my MP as well to see what the hold up is. not too many updates from them so far.
we applied on Jan 26 2017 and got AOR Feb 23 2017. Med done in July 17. no updates so far through MyCIC or ECAS after medical pass.Not necessarily. When did you apply?
I wouldn't really call that a hold upwe applied on Jan 26 2017 and got AOR Feb 23 2017. Med done in July 17. no updates so far through MyCIC or ECAS after medical pass.
I got a feeling it may come up very soon. I sponsor my wife inland and applied in Sept 2016 and we got the approval and PR on Feb 13, 2018. So I think you may receive the letter probably early 2019.we applied on Jan 26 2017 and got AOR Feb 23 2017. Med done in July 17. no updates so far through MyCIC or ECAS after medical pass.
It is also interesting that I look at this forum some of the applicant applied like 2015 or so but did not receive any feedback. I am wonder if CIC do review each case before pick it up and process it.I think it will be sooner than 2019. I'm thinking April-May time frame.
I agree and I hope they review our application soon. It has become so stressful as the days pass without any updates. I know it could be nothing but this uncertainty is a real pain in the neck!Hi, cic received my application last nov.28,2016. Im inland applicant. After my medical last oct.4,2017 no update yet.when i called cic the operator said they're proccessing my background check. It's been 15months already. But luckily they issued me 2yrs open work permit which expires on march 2019.
Hope we could receive positive updates soon.
