Average right now is 8 months.... No clue where you got 1 to 3 months.

Were talking about SS not regular background check
Maybe I misunderstood or I have posted in the wrong group.
From what I have seen, for EE CEC Inland applicants, PR process is completed under 6 months in 80% cases. Don’t know why 8 months is average. I am talking about Background Check it seems, Eligibility, Criminality and Security comes under Background Check for Express Entry.

Your in the wrong group. This is for family sponsor not ee. Either way, ss process time is same for both And it's up to a year with an average of 8.

Hi. today i recieved my answer from IRCC.

The file is being processed at the Canadian visa office in New Delhi.


· The medical examination results have expired for the dependents and valid until March 23, 2019 for the principal applicant Anwar . If new medical examinations are required, a correspondence will be sent to the applicants in due course.

· The criminality verifications are currently valid until December 2, 2019.

· The security verifications are in process for All family member.

Now we are around 10 months in SS and i don't know how long we should wait :(
they started our SS in July 2018 still we are waiting :(

Hello,

What is your status of criminality or security? I am in long wait same as you, but for me i only know that my crimality is in process since July. Not sure if that would be SS as the "security" have not been initiated.

OP applied through PNP and is posting to the wrong section of the forum. These processing times are pretty normal for PNP.
