I Inquired about my background check from CSIS Canada and yesterday they called at my wifes house to inquire about her but her family members told them that she is not in the country and staying with her husband in Pakistan. So the CSIS attendant said that we are sending her a letter about the information on the background check probably we will receive this letter today...but i am very sure it will just say "Background check is in progress"
Salam alaikoume Maximus391 how did u do that plz explain as i would like to do it too.

W Salam.. Sidney i sent the following letter

To,
The Director,
Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS).

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing this letter to inquire about my husband's background check being done on behalf of CIC-Islamabad. I have sponsored my husband from Pakistan and the case processing started on 30th October, 2009. I have recently received an email from CIC-Islamabad informing us that the file is under a “Routine Background Check”. Can you please confirm if the file is with your office and how long does it take to complete the background check? My husband's immigration file number, D.O.B and Country of Origin are mentioned below.

Name:
Date of Birth:
Immigration File Number:
Country of Origin:

Regards,
XXXX
Address & Telephone Number


This letter was faxed on the following # Fax: 613-231-0612...Also make sure the sponsor signatures are on the letter before sending it to CSIS

Maximus, great information. How do you find about contacting them ?. I thought the background checks are done by Islamabad via private agencies. Is CSIS is involved also for background checks for visa offices abroad. Please give more info so I can also contact them for my wife case. The recent reply I got from my MP was that the file of my wife is UNDER REVIEW. My wife has sent email yesterday to Islamabad and waiting for reply.

This is something very new I have heard. Now they are asking for flight itinerary, that is strange. They usually take 4-6 weeks to return the passport and should leave to the applicant to fly as per his/her convenience before the expiry of the visa.
