Wow! So they take 16 weeks exactly!

 

[FSW_Applicant]

Just got off the phone with FBI. Our second set of applications were received on 11/11 (first set was not legible by their system).
This time my wife's prints were accepted but mine have been rejected again!!

Timeline:
First set received: 08/09
Received letter for bad prints: 10/28
Second set received: 11/11
Wife's report mailed: 02/27
My prints considered faulty again

What irks me is that both times the prints were taken by a technician at the local PD and each set had 2 copies, each separately taken. Guess I have to start my 16 week process all over again. So frustrating ???

I called the FBI and asked them if my finger prints are accepted( my credit card has been charged yesterday), they told me to call after three to four weeks. Is that normal I thought I could know earlier?
Can I know from members who got their reports when they know if their finger prints were accepted?

That indeed is frustrating. If FBI is so picky on the fingerprint quality, they should have their own people do it at various places.

Our were also rejected the first time, and am waiting for the response for the second ones.

I guess all you could do is ask CIC an extension and continue waiting for FBI to process it.

This is perhaps the longest wait ever for any type of certificate anywhere.

Good luck,

Regards

Oh gosh! This is turning out to be such a pathetic and painful process to get a fbi clearance ... I am in the same boat, after 16 long weeks came to know that the prints were not accepted -( just makes me wonder why don't they start using digital prints like the state Clearances !!

Hello All,
I guess I am in the same boat as for FBI PCC.
5th September applicant. Received MED,PCC,RFPR request on 25th February. (CPC-OTTAWA)

However, my FBI PCC was rejected first time due to unclear finger prints. resubmitted again on 22nd January-2015.
I have untill 24th April-15 to submit all documents. And counting 16 weeks from day of submission it will be at least 25th may to receive my PCC, granted that the new finger prints are accepted this time.

this is frustrating.

I have seen some applicants in the global spreadsheet for FSW-2014, who have received visa and they had Partial PCC submittals.
Is this possible? Seniors please comment.

thanks

I'm aware of only one such case which is really strange and could have been a mistake on the officer's part. FBI is not optional, it is a mandatory document.

I am new to this thread, I read through a lot of pages, I need to get my FBI- Clearance done and I still have this question.

I am in US for last 10 years (not a citizen or Permanent Resident)
For FBI-Clearance for CIC, can I use the FBI-Channelers for this ?
Since you are supposed to send the FBI application form and the finger print together, if I use Channelers how can be both sent together.
I read in FBI website that "Due to automation of the mail process, tentatively scheduled for January 12, 2015, the FBI will no longer provide Identity History Summary results on blue security paper. "

Can someone please guide on the steps that anyone of you recently did.

Thanks in advance.

I called one of the channelers (vetconnex) and they mentioned if I am not a US citizen or a Permanent Resident, I can't use their Service for FBI clearance. I have use the finger print card and mail it directly to FBI.
Hope this helps other who might be new and looking for similar info.

Dear Seniors,

Pls. advise if there is any way to confirm that NDVO has actually received PCCs sent by Courier (apart from courier company saying so). I sent FBI PCC and its getting on my nerves.

Thanks.
