I received my notes. I am in security check. So, if it takes about a year for this dark tunnel to end, I should hope to get PR only after Sep 2018. I just applied for BOWP; sad.

What’s the maximum processing time we are looking at for the final verdict on that application ? It has been more than 7 months . I want to start couple of things so I want to avoid both things happening at same time.

Same situation is at my side. Very confused on taking steps that must be taken by now.

From my call to them, the maximum time is one year from the date you received ITA. I was told my application is still under background check meanwhile my gcms note showed that EE, MED, Criminality were PASSED since three months ago.

When I trace my account activity in the notes, at some point it shows that "security" is being changed from an "old value" of "not started" to just blank. After that, all the information is visibly removed from the notes due to legal reasons. If you can't see such things in your notes, then it probably means that you are not in security check.

Same here, My status is NA2 from six months. It's highly frustrating for me but still the hopes are alive ;)
Hello my AOR is 27th July and I'm on NA2 since 9th Aug. I emailed london visa office 2 weeks back and they replied that my case is waiting for the final review ( VCM). Now i have almost crossed the 7th months timeline. My question is do they cross 8 months timeline if u r not in security screening ???

Exact same scenario. Ever since they received the RPRF fees they didn't touch the files and that's back in the first wee of september. I thought i'd be under security screening but guess what it says in the notes: NOT STARTED!

some posts on GCMS said that "not Started" means the security check is in progress

Hey! How did you manage to call them and get in touch. I've been trying for so long at +1-613-944-4000 and the line always disconnects after automated voice says they cannot connect me to an agent because all lines are busy. Please help!!
