background verifications are conducted by other agencies of the government: RCMP, CSIS, and CBSA. These agencies' timelines are not regulated by CIC and CIC doesn't have control over the speed of their processings.

Also note that if the screening of your file is taking longer than usual, it's not necessarily due to a complication in your background or anything of that nature. So don't worry. If you are really anxious, you can contact those outside agencies directly and ask if they are still working on your case. For instructions, google "canada security screening status".

Hi everyone

I just called CIC, asked them about my application status. The lady said they are doing background verifications. Does anybody have some idea what it is, exactly? Thank you!

Hi all,

My Notes says "Sent file to CPC-O Program Integrity for comprehensive check for the PA". Does anyone know what this means? Background check? How long does it usually take?

Thanks.

Hi formal_verification,

Got it.

Thanks a lot.

I remember CPC-Ottawa has required MR and RPRF from you. Any news after that?

Hi Jeffrey,

I don't know your case. But for me, it took one month longer than usual. Don't worry as long as you didn't misrepresent anything.

Nothing to worry... CIC wants make sure that all the applicants are treated unbiased,,

Unfortunately., ur ppr wait time will be slightly longer compare to the normal applicants...

As long as ur docs are genuine and ur qualified under phd category, expect a little more wait nothing is going to change..

Best wishes...

Don't worry it just the criminality check which is a routine work for all the applicants. Remember each and every application go through these three steps........Eligibility, Criminality and Admissibility .............Once all the gets clear then they ask for Passport.
Good Luck.
