I'd say anything around 10-14 weeks is still "normal", how long have you been waiting?

Please, remind me, which country did you apply from? Are you s single applicant?

Hey @AnonymousQuin23 We applied February 16, Eligibility started March 20, OPRs June 6. We've waited for 16 weeks ;)

@Magathe22 No, absolutely not necessarily! It might be a positive decision as well :)

Hey @stormblessed26! Thank you so much for your warm message and trust! It really means a lot to me! :) Yes, the LOEs on our second application were definitely much stronger than on our first one. However, we did submit some additional documents as well to support and strengthen our...

Hey @AnonymousQuin23! Criminality and info sharing (which criminality for Five Eye countries) is the first thing an application goes through. It is a doorway for an application to be opened and considered for review. And it means just that: you have passed your background check. There is no...

Congratulations @Lolan! :) You and us got our OPRs on the same day :) How is your passport stamping going? In China, it takes 6 weeks. How long does it take in Russia these days?
