Continuing...... Collected information from various sources....


[size=20pt]Regarding Background Checks: Standard Documentation Checks



  • During the PER stage documents background check is done which is an indication is the ECAS that shows ”In Progress".

  • All documents been checked & the NOC being tallied against FSW.

  • Officer finds the case eligible for Canadian PR, the case becomes Accepted; and then it goes for standard background checks, like Experience, Qualifications, Adaptability, Language, Qualitative Considerations etc.


  • If file is well presented and the enclosures are guaranteed by quality-quantity, adequate POF docs etc., there might not be a requirement of actually calling the employers, references etc.

  • If there are any concerns of applicant is likely to ask for additional docs, do further scrutiny like calling, visiting etc. or might ask for an Interview.

- Outcome: When fully satisfied, then go for Medical Request.
- ECAS: Continues to Show In Process.

Regarding Background Checks: Security & Criminality Checks



  • Most of case it commences after the medical results are submitted to the CIC/VO.
  • This is a major activity, mainly concerning any Political, Socio-Economical, Anti-Social disposition, perceived Threat to Canada's integrity etc.

  • This is a time consuming stage and something serious, involving many agencies, including CSIS, Interpol, NASC, Database Checking & touch-base with Local Police, etc...

  • Many things are considered here... the number of countries visited, Applicant coming from certain countries, ex-Servicemen including Law Enforcement services, Prolonged stay in a country with or without sufficient documents to prove cause, frequent traveling to certain nations, Name (?), Inter-Religion /Nationality Marriages etc.

  • If everything is simple & straight, the file soon gets into the final review stage.

  • If there are any red flags, the case goes into a spin. Then file might go to the local Police/CID agencies; the outcome/timeframe of which is beyond the control of CIC. And thereby the timeframe can be anything. However, a point to be noted is that PA can also be called for an Interview [at this stage], due to this reason.


- Outcome: Only upon security clearance applicant receives the PPR.
- ECAS: Still In Process, but 'Medical Results Received' inside.


The Process at a glance:

Stage-1: [CIC stage]
  • Send Initial Apps + Processing Fees to CIO-NS
  • Qualitative Check
  • Issue of PER

Stage-2: [CHC/VO stage onwards]
  • Send Full Docs + RPRF to the Local Visa Office
  • File on Queue
  • ECAS: "Received by Visa Office"
  • Eligibility Check
  • Issue of AOR
  • Background Check
  • Issue of Additional docs Request [if any]
  • ECAS: "In Process"
  • Send Additional Documents
  • Issue of MR

Stage-3: MR + RPRF Sent

  • ECAS: "Medical Results Received."
  • Issue of PPR*
  • Send Passport(s)
  • Security Check
  • Visa(s) Stamped
  • ECAS: "Decision Made"
  • The MR & PPR are sometimes 'clubbed' together.

Stage-4: Return of 'Stamped' Passport/COPR
  • Landing at the POE
  • ECAS: "Completed".






Hi Shamrajjo,

Im new here and i have a small doubt.

Am i right to say If someone's CC charged means that his application is complete and CIC officers has already checked the candidate's job description match to the 80% of the lead statement of the NOC and after checking that only they charge the candidate's credit card?

Is there any chance that the CIC officers will charge the CC first and then later they check the candidate's job description (JD provided by the company including the jobs he performs in the work) and if it's found that it doesnt match with the 70%-80% of the lead statement and so the candidate will receive a NER?

Really appreciate your answer in clearing my above doubts.

Thank you in advance.

To those who have already gotten PASSPORT REQUEST.

I just sent my passport today through express mail to my local Visa Office.
From what I've gotten in the Passport Request e-mail we should just send receipt of RPRF payment and a sheet or letter with the address of where you want your passport delivered to. Is it that simple?

My passport should be in the VO tomorrow. I'm wondering when I'll be getting it back
Thank you!

Congrats, i'm a bit relieved those of us in NOC 1123 has been worried sick because there has not been any en cashed lately :D
 
Hey Guys!

Does anyone has experienced of Online Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) by Delhi Police. As I understood from their website, issuance of certificate in 7 days, fees is 250 INR and can be paid online through credit card. My concern is, as they issue a digitally signed certificate, is this is acceptable with London Visa Office. Guys share your views on this.

Cheers!
 
Dear seniors,
My application reached on Sept 22. Not a hot NOC-4214. Still no PER. Got UCI by calling CIC and the standard ECAS first line. People who submitted much later than me have got their PERs. I analysed the applications of ones who received PER vs the ones who didn't get. No patterns. Even those with very high scores of 77 and 80 points are waiting.
What are the possible reasons for delay? Some have reached more than 135 days after submission.
What is the highest number of days between submission and issue of PER?

Greatly appreciate your answer. Am really stressed out. Thank you.

Good Day All,

I finally made my Landing on the 27th Of January at the Calgary International Airport. it was a pleasant experience I must say. Though I was a bit nervous as human but it went well.

I am now experiencing winter in the land of Maple Leaf.

I wish all FSW2014 awaiting decision from the CIC or VO all the best. Same goes to our EE applicants.
Once again, DIPLOMATRU, CANOI, KSA0501 and other seniors I cant recall their names.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us.

;) :) :P
