    2022 PR application timeline

    Our timeline is similar to Ramino2022. Inland spousal sponsorshp, and PR applied for Aug. 2022 (paper); docs uploaded on web Oct. 2022. One background/security check has been an outstanding issue for at least a year which I find to be ludicrous. Really can't do anything else except wait...

    2022 PR application timeline

    Well this is the latest from my MP, so essentially nothing more we can do except wait on this BS, other than Mandamus I suppose. " IRCC Update: - office responded to the message sent by the IRCC agent and I: "this application is still undergoing additional verification; this verification is...

    2022 PR application timeline

    Our file is an inland spousal sponsorship. Have had no issues whatsoever with my wife's work permit, recently renewed and good until Nov. 2026 now. But getting PR status that's a whole different issue, will see how this plays out. She already missed a family wedding in early Jan. (worried...

    2022 PR application timeline

    Subsequent to my previous reply, I received an email from my MP which stated that my wife's security check has been outstnad Your idea is certainly plausible. Interestingly enough, yesterday I also received an email from my MP's office mentioning that my wife's background/security check has...

    2022 PR application timeline

    IRCC received our application by mail Aug. 2022, uploaded to website Oct. 22. There is one item still outstanding, which is a background check on one individual that has been holding up our application for months. I've written to several ministers, ordered GCMS notes from the CBSA, enlisted the...

    NON-ROUTINE APPLICANTS

    Apologies for my post being placed in the wrong forum. Having said that, no one is able to tell me why it is taking 10 months plus to process the last remaining issue on our file, one background check. Regardless of who is conducting this I find it to be an unacceptable timeline. Pretty...

    NON-ROUTINE APPLICANTS

    Ah yes, the "non-routine" claim, allows the IRCC to take their sweet time in actually dealing with an application. In our case almost 2.5 years now and still no final decision on our inland spousal sponsorship plus PR application; absolutely pathetic in my view that it has taken 10 months plus...

    GCMS shows 'Security Screening' and waiting... - let's gather here!

    This is essentially the same reply I received from my MP's office, they do not even know who is conducting the security check. Our application has been labelled as non-routine which means the IRCC can take their sweet f*****g time processing it. I've reached out to several ministers in...

    PR confirmation portal timelines

    Originally applied Aug. 5, 2022 by mail, docs online Oct. 2022, latest update I've seen is April 2024, and one background check that has been outstanding for ten months holding up our application. Checked again this morning, same old BS saying its in progress. Seems to be zero accountability...

    CSIS and CBSA notes for Background Check

    Shocked to see the Work Permit finally arrive yesterday, postmarked Nov. 19,2024. Mailed from Edmonton office to BC. Hopefully we finally get some good news on the PR soon.

    work permit not received

    The IRCC supposedly sent a work permit that was renewed a few days before the Canada Post strike. Filled out a webform after six weeks had elapsed and told them we have not received it. It is now Jan. 14th, 2025 and still hasn't arrived. Are they sending this by Pony Express? I suppose...

    CSIS and CBSA notes for Background Check

    This week I received a letter back from CSIS in response to my query why is it taking so long to complete these background checks, original sent to then Minister in charge Dominic LeBlanc. The very last sentence in the letter states the following: "CSIS is unable to answer questions related to...

    Anyone stuck in Spousal PR security check over 1 year (not criminality but security background check) Please join here

    Interesting, I may follow up on the demand letter, although my last two webforms sent to the IRCC I am still waiting for a response back, so not sure if this will finally get their attention. GCMS notes from the CBSA really didn't tell much of anything to be honest, provides a basic timeline...

    NON-ROUTINE APPLICANTS

    Still no final decision on our file as one background/security check is still outstanding and has been for months. Requested and received GCMS notes from the CBSA but it didn't really shed much light on this situation. Oddly, was able to renew a WP for my wife recently in half the time...

    Anyone stuck in Spousal PR security check over 1 year (not criminality but security background check) Please join here

    Just received GCMS notes requested from the CBSA. Like many others, this perpetual background check issue makes no sense. By looking at the notes I can see this issue existed in Feb 2024, and today is still the only outstanding issue holding up our application. Have sent an email back to...
