My husband’s sowp visa is stuck for 2.5 years. During this period IRCC asked for military documents twice (October 22, and October 23). He uploaded within the timeframe but since then pin drop silence. IRCC doesn’t even replies to webform. MP denied to help. GCMS notes were requested two times but no response. Now, we applied for PR where I’m the main applicant. I’m so frustrated seeing myself and other’s situation that I’m getting hopeless. Nothing works to make the process faster. I have been away from my family for 3 years and don’t know how many more years have to wait!

For my father’s super visa application, its going to be year in november.

For visitor application, its going to be 8 month. Nothing as of yet.

So frustrated, We should do something about it like joint request to mps.

Yes, I agree with you. We should do something together so that IRCC can’t play games with our files. They just can’t hold the files forever in the name of background check.

Hi. What kind of application is this? Are you already in Canada? Did you think about writ of mandamus? My husband’s application is stuck in security since October 2023. Were you in military service before? Thanks.

Are you a PR now in Canada? And if you are not a PR, that application is not a family class sponsorship application.
SOWP is not guaranteed for foreign students or temporary workers. Was he in military? Security and background check requires his home country's cooperation.

OMG! This is insane! It's better to just reject the application then to make us wait for 11 years! And I was going crazy thinking that my 2 years of waiting is a lot. I am an EE-PNP applicant (outside Canada) with a military background. They should have a deadline for these kind of background checks, they can't just hold the application forever

yes wasted 3000 dollar on mandmus 0 outcome specially military and police personnel background they not completing just left people hanging with military background. government makes all policies what kind of stupid policy is that a third party will do background and government gave power to third party to take as much time they want what is person dies waiting for 11 years like is it some kind of joke it shoukd be time bound that they have to complete security in 6 months no matter what but here noone is there to
look over polices . my wife is canadian citizen by birth never went to india but indian consulate processed her oci application in 2 months including background and security checks gave her overseas citizenship in 2 months after applying and these canada guys cant ever give pr card for 10-10 years we shoukd all get together and do petition

You think a petition might help? Many people are in the same situation and as I've seen it's been like this forever. I even requested the CBSA notes since more then 1 year and I didn't receive it yet.
