Usually yes. Unfortunately these days, comprehensive security screening is taking a long time. probably 14-15 months after the start of the security check. was about 10-12 months for most cases couple of months ago.After sending them a webform, I've got this reply:
"Also, we verified the information on file and can confirm that:
- The security background verification is in process.
- The criminal background verification is currently valid."
is security background the last stage before the final decision?
