    Two years ago Holthe was charging $3000 CAD for court filing. Apparently business is booming and demand is high

    IRCC/CBSA/CSIS sometimes forget about your ATIP request. You need to send another one. If this doesn't work, submit a complaint to the Information Commissioner or the Privacy Commissioner, depending on if you ordered the Act of Information request ($5) or the Privacy Act request (free).

    My lawyer is Lev Abramovich, but I don't think our experiences are mutually applicable - I did not get any PFL (not even an ADR).

    <<<<<<<<<<JANUARY 2023 AOR>>>>>>>>>>

    I hope I am the last person in the January 2023 cohort to graduate. IRCC sent me to comprehensive security screening, and fought viciously when I brought them to court. They would not reply to my mandamus actions until the 11 pm on the 10th or 30th day (i.e. 1 hour before the 30 day deadline...

    They admitted in writing they found no reason whatsoever to put me in security, but still they stalled me as long as they could

    Indeed, I called IRCC today and they said security screening by CSIS and CBSA finished on the same day as the remedical request (July 19)

    <<<<<<<<<<JANUARY 2023 AOR>>>>>>>>>>

    I called IRCC today and they told me security screening by both CSIS and CBSA finished on the same day of the remedical request (July 19). Reviewing my updated medical exam results is the only thing left outstanding. Unfortunately, it is too much to ask for given IRCC's limited mental capabilities

    30 days after filing my affidavit with the Federal Court, IRCC gave a pretty unusual response. By law they have 31 days to respond, so I was expecting their response tomorrow. They say they will show up at court, but won't be submitting any arguments, because they can't find any against me...

    One year ago it was less than 12 months. Currently it is roughly 15-18 months. Processing times may go up or down from here.

    Officially security isn't over for me And IRCC always waits until the last day allowed by the court to respond to my legal moves, and does not respond at all for anything it can get away with I'm not surprised if this remedical request is caused by some Microsoft glitch :)

    Updates - I can see the light at the end of this veeeeery looooong tunnel now. IRCC just asked me to renew my medicals! Although it could also be the result of the worldwide bug on Microsoft servers today. :rolleyes: 2023-01-15 AOR 2023-05-10 Sent to Security Screening 2024-04-26 Sent Letter of...

    For the average applicant without a very problematic background (e.g. military experience), security screening was expected to take 9-12 months in early 2023, 12-14 months in late 2023, and 15-18 months right now. There is no sign IRCC/CBSA/CSIS is doing anything to address this trend.

    I follow Chinese, Indian, Iranian, Russian forums/group chats for security screening subjects. I would be surprised if more than 8% is processed in less than 110 days. It is my 430th day in security screening.

    They will never give you a reason in an ATIP. Unless you receive a Procedural Fairness Letter (PFL) because of security concerns, in which IRCC will give the vaguest way possible to deliver a reason. Sometimes, if you file a writ of mandamus, and you proceed to the stage where IRCC has to...
