Your current application is for a new TRV from scratch. There is no renewal for TRVs.

Background checks are done if the visa office believes it is necessary i.e. depending on when you had previously applied, which countries you have traveled to/lived in the interim, etc
Visa office says that the applications are under security check process,
Any idea how long they take max for the background check and is it the last process before they grant visa?

It really depends on how quickly they will complete the process of background checks. They usually takes 3-6 months or may be more in rare cases.

We cannot predict that this will be the last process before visa approval but this is the step which decides your visa confirmation.

agree with you but it is a hope in positive way that they consider your application either you know it took just 5 days to them to send you love letter ...

Hello

My mother will be traveling to the US in December. She wants to apply for TRV online from the US to visit me in Canada. I was wondering if she can submit her application online before entering the US, so that she has sufficient time to plan her visit to me?

Yes , she can apply now as it takes from a week upto 6 months for TRV ..many of august and september applicants are still waiting for the decision ... and yes once she gets approved she can get it stamped in US

i read in this forum that is possible but not sure about ours as we applied offline however in online cases you can send CSE request and ask them to submit passport to any nearest VAC and they allow for it.
