Can someone please enlighten me if background and security checks done for TRV can help speed up PR Application? Reason I am asking is that I applied for the 3rd time whilst my PR was still in process.The first two previous ones were before PR application. 1st during our courtship and 2nd after marriage.

Was wondering since the TRV was done recently and a decision was made. wouldnt it make sense to use the background and security checks . rather than start the whole process all over again?

Ok
On My friend application they started Background check.. on his account it is saying background check is in process and eligibility not started yet.

My Question:

1 Is this is because he is outside Canada and that's why they want to check his background?

2 How long it will take IRCC to process background .. is this the same as for PR applicants?

3 can we assume that the eligibility most likely passed that's why they started background check?

4 background check means file is currently open? and someone is checking and will give decision anytime?
