My application is selected for security screening. My problem is; first: Why? I've never held a government job, I've traveled to only four countries which are not hot zones or anything. So is it an arbitrary thing that if they don't like your name they choose you? Second, why did no one touch my...

Hello all. I am a November applicant (AOR: 13 November -- FSW-O), and in less than a week, I will complete my 8th month! Truly irritated at this extremely unfair process. There are people from April who Have received their PPRs (with much fewer CRS points than us) and here we are, waiting for...

How many active members are here? I am a November applicant (AOR: 13 November -- FSW-O), and in less than a week, I will complete my 8th month! Truly irritated at this extremely unfair process. There are people from April who Have received their PPRs (with much fewer CRS points than us) and...

I'll be damned! I never knew such a difference exists between (security) and (security screening). Just now I started researching it and it seems like I am royally screwed. So basically SS will add, at a minimum, 2 more additional months, and possibly more than a year until completion. Being...

I just checked my latest GCMS and on the page where it is written [s.15(1)] on the top-right corner, it says (security screening). I never thought much of it, but is (security screening) different from just (security)?

Can't talk for the others, but for me, according to my last GCMS (which I received about a month ago) everything had passed except for security.

Hello friend. I am still waiting as well. In a week's time, my application will reach the 8 month mark. It is extremely frustrating and very unfair when you see people who applied in April (with much fewer CRS points compared to us) have gotten their PPRs and yet our applications are closing in...

Congratulations my friend. I wish you all the very best in all your future endeavors.

I have contacted PVO twice. They say my application is still under review and they can't say how much longer it'll take. In other words, all I can do is wait and hope for the best.

Thank you my friend. I appreciate your kind words, and I truly wish you all the very best in all your future endeavors.

Hello again Raj. As one poster pointed out, there were 17 of us left from November. With AmBiNa getting his PPR just yesterday, 16 of us are left behind now. Most of us are having our security checks pending. Not certain why that is the case though. We are all biting our times hoping things will...

Congratulations! Wish you all the very best.

Order a GCMS note, or send an email to (CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca) and ask them.

Hello A.Syed1. as of a few days ago, there were 16 of us here on this thread from November whose security checks have been ongoing for a few months now. So you are the 17th applicant to be in this situation. Please let us know if and when you receive any updates concerning your application.

Thanks for the update. Let us know if anything else changes. Wish you all the best.

Haha! I guess misery loves company.

Heath, thank you for sharing that information. Indeed being from the Middle East seems to be the one common factor that is affecting most (thou not all) of us. I am from (Kurdistan of) Iraq, Tony is from Lebanon, you are from Egypt, I think one of the other applicants is from Saudi Arabia. This...

Indeed, there are not many of us left here, but I think we should make an effort to post occasionally and keep each other informed about our statuses, at least so that we don't feel very lonely about how things are going for us. I wish you all the best.

Mine was the same as yours. I have heard that even when the GCMS note states that security has not started, in reality, a security check is already underway but for some reason it doesn't show on the GCMS report. Therefore, we can safely assume they are already checking security for both of us...

Agreed! We have to do our best to keep ourselves busy with other daily activities and hope we will receive the golden email sooner than later.
