Hi,

I suggest you ask the Embassy about the current status of your file. Background chek is thier procedure. When and how is upto them. Probably it may be (?) still pending for that, which you will be able to know if you contact them.

best of luck!!.

regards

If you e mail them please do it thru ECAS - "Case Specific Enquiry". Otherwise they may NOT AT ALL look to your mail. Every day lot of e mails are received at the Visa Sections and a number of them related to general enquiries.

Salam , i was just reading post. the normal procedure for the visa processing is 1-interview, 2- medical and then they do security check. normally they do background check during the normal process of application and it all these work is done by the SCIS a different department working on such things.

So dont worry it will be done soon inshallah. i am also waiting for this lousy security check and the immigration officer said that he is hoping that it will be done withing 8 weeks and said that he is not really certain about that. But we should always hope for the best and stay positive. ALLAH will help us all to go through this painful time of being apart from our partners.

GOOD luck

And do you have any wrong with your security check or not? i dont understand that you said its already been one and half year to your case. Would you mind telling me about a little bit of your case? thanks
