All you have to do is to chill and relax. It has nothing to do in your end.

thanks

You have to do nothing. Canada shares info with parents nations and federal departments.

See https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/mandate/policies-operational-instructions-agreements/agreements.html

This is a system error, or nothing came back.

You do not have to do anything at your end.

thanks

Does anybody know about the meaning of "Security Checking in processing"? does it mean security screening or just the normal check? how long does the normal check take? thank you very much!

I have checked with RICC via webform last week and got their reply:

eligibility: still in processing
criminality: passed
security: not initiated - which is weird since I called last time the agent told me it was on processing.

I am wondering why the eligibility is till under review as most of the candidates are recommend pass/passed.

really anxious about the progress here.....

Try to order GCMS but it'll take a while for you to get it but its a way to get a peace of mind on you eligibility. Don't worry too much on security - for as long as you arent a terrorist or a public/security threat.

Thanks for those who finally signed up and posted their timelines.

I'm also encouraging others to do the same.

This simply means that they will prioritize those who are close or beyond the normal processing time. We'll probably get our in june + delays.

I believe it's a standard message when the application reaches halfway stage, i.e. 50%

It automatically changes to that after you passed 50% on your status bar. It does not mean anything. I'm at 70% and no GU/sign of PPR any time soon. Don't expect too much in this period of time.

Wonder if this will affect existing applications as well?

Canada hits pause button on immigration during pandemicBY BRIAN LILLEY

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED: MAR 28, 2020

Immigration is on hold in Canada, for the time being, due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

A federal government official confirms the immigration program is suspended while travel restrictions remain in place, but some wonder whether we might need to keep the program on pause a little longer.

The Trudeau government had set targets of 341,000 permanent residents in 2020 followed by increases to 351,000 in 2021 and 361,000 in 2022.

“Currently, only Canadian citizens, permanent residents and their immediate family are allowed to board flights to Canada or to enter through the Canada-US border,” said Kevin Lemkay, press secretary for Immigration Minister Marco Mendicino.

“Despite the current travel restrictions, IRCC continues to accept and process applications,” Lemkay said.

During the period where travel is restricted the department says that no application in progress will be closed or refused due to a lack of documentation. Those applications will remain open even if normal timelines for submitting biometrics or a medical exam are not met.

The question now is how quickly immigration will resume after travel restrictions are lifted.

Conservative Immigration Critic Peter Kent, himself a naturalized Canadian, supports the government’s current move but wonders if immigration should be kept on pause if unemployment levels rise as high as expected.

In the last two weeks more than one million Canadians have applied for employment insurance and the government expects as many as 4 million people to apply for emergency benefits in coming weeks. A report from the Parliamentary Budget Officer estimates unemployment could hit 15% this year, triple what it was before the crisis.

“We don’t know what we will be able to do to redirect the unemployed coming out of the crisis,” Kent said.

Kent emphasized that he fully supports immigration as an economic benefit for Canada but said we will be dealing with a crippled economy and much higher than normal unemployment for some time after the crisis.

“We need a lot more people but right now, we need to pause,” Kent said.

True, thanks dear

I cant find any article on IRCC website which says that they placed the EE application processing on hold. Some were getting GUs and very few got PPR. They for sure placed tourist applications on hold because it falls undeR non-essential travel. And besides they still issue ITAs.
