Hi, have you received your CSIS notes yet? I have been waiting 50 days now. I wonder why they take so long these days?

IRCC agents tend not to reveal much concerning your security. While it could very well be a routine (record) check, the only way to be sure is for you to wait for another 2-4months and order GCMS notes which will state categorically the type of screening you are under. Good luck.

Not if you are under comprehensive Security screening. MPs cannot help you in this case.

You are absolutely correct.

Thanks for your response. I absolutely understand your frustrations, and don't blame yourself for some of the decisions you have made, I guess majority of us in the waiting line has regrets too about some life changing decisions we have made against the background of a smooth and predictable...

Hi, have you received your CSIS notes now? I know that (just like me) your security started in October 2023. What's the update with your application and how are you coping with the stress and mental fatigue this journey subjects all of us to?

This is fantastic news. Congratulations to you and thanks for the encouraging words. Can you kindly share your timeline please. Regards .

While it is not impossible, current trend suggests that majority are in CSS for an average of 9-12months. Good luck.

Am I the only one still left in this group? AOR - Nov. 23, 2022. Waiting for BGC since October 27, 2023. God help me.

Thank you

@Miss bee, I am an outland applicant and I wish to order GCMS notes. I understand that only a citizen or PR resident in Canada request on my behalf. However, I will like to know if a friend of mine with a TRV (Study permit) can request on my behalf? Looking forward to your reply. Many thanks

Yes, I noticed exactly the same (application updated) on my GCKey over the weekend. And like you, I have been in SS since October 27, 2023. I have mixed feeling because my Medical also expired on August 31st and so I am not sure if that was the reason my application was updated or whether an...

To be honest with you, nobody can accurately predict when you will get the FD. With IRCC, each case is unique and treated on their own merit. Even a trend analysis may not help much as the word "normal" does not exist with IRCC. I will rather suggest you order your GCMS and CBSA notes at this...

This sounds good, congratulations. You should expect a final decision between a few days and 2weeks (max) I imagine. Could you share your timeline pls, or more specifically when did your security screening commence? Regards

This is fantastic news. Big congratulations to you. I pray we get many more positive feedback like this in this month of August. Thanks for sharing and giving us the much needed hope. If you don't mind, can you share exactly when your security screening started? Cheers

@Miss bee Can you please help with this? Thanks in advance

Considering your security in process date is May 2023, one might infer that you are nearing the end of the processing of your application. Ordinarily, the BGC will change twice. First when your criminality is in progress, which is fairly early in the application, and then will go back to not...

You have said it all. It's beyond ridiculous, it's a shame. Somebody tell me why on earth security screening for whatever reason and in whatever guise should last beyond 3 to 6months max. I can never understand.

Well, less than a handful of people. From this thread, I know a May 2023 that was cleared in March 2024, a June 8, that was cleared on May 1, 2024; an August 30th that was cleared on June 25th, 2024. Not to mention an October 23rd that was cleared early(first week) of this month of July after...
