Does background check for TRV visit and PR same?

[Krish121089]

Hi,
I am recently in Canada on TRV while my outland spousal PR is in progress. I hope i got visitor Visa after eligibility and background Check. My question is whether it will be considered for PR too? Since they checked my eligibility and background recently will they do it again and if so will the previous check speed up the process in case they check again?

Yes they will do the process again and yes it is likely more in depth.

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?

Everyone gets a background check even if they are inside Canada. Background checks for visitors are not as in depth as for PR. There is no specific processing time for background checks. Eligibility should come before background check but that’s not always the case. Background check remain open while you are waiting in line for your background check to get started and while the government is actually doing the background check. You can be stuck waiting for a background check for months.
