Dear experienced fellows,
I am from Karachi Pakistan and have been requested to appear for a medical examination. My query is that I submitted my passport with CIC and now the IOM karachi wants a copy of passport for verification, which I do not have. kindly guide me regarding this matter.

Hey everyone,

Our family application for TRV says Background check: in process from day 1.even before submitting biometrics.
I haven’t found anyone on the forum that had the same case , I’ve noticed mostly people get not applicable.
This is bumming us out since Background checks take forever.
Anyone got background checks in process and changed a couple of days later?

From where did you applied ? BGC can take 15-150 days, generally done in cases of Military or police job personnel. For Pakistan national its common.

It depends on the passport you hold. If you hold a passport issued by Pakistan, Bangladesh, Iran, etc. then background checks are possible. Most Indian passport holders do not have background checks unless s/he has worked in a critical work area

Well .. Im Egyptian and I’m not sure how that would be different than any other nationality you’ve mentioned.
An update on our application in the eligibility: went from in process to reviewing your eligibility.

Background checks could be because of your nationality and/or the countries you have traveled to or lived in
Do you know if it’s possible to apply for a work permit while our TRVs are processing?? Or should we withdrawal our application?
