what is the difference between background and security check?

I think you mean security screening, security checks are for everyone but security screening are for the lucky few, cos it may take up to more than 1 year to complete...
 
This wait is killing me now....
Aor 10 May
Med passed/Ip1 till 22 May
No update since
106 days and still counting.....
Now patience is turning into frustration.
 
Hang on guys, the majority of us will get their pprs in the course of the next two/three months. It's just plain statistics :)
 
me too, a little bit worried. I was advised to orger GMS notes as if application doesn't show the progress it doesn't mean its Not actually in progress.
Going to wait for 1 more month and may be order these notes.

are you outland or inland applicant? do you have dependants?

I am an Outland Applicant. I have already applied for the GCMS notes, expecting them on the 1st of September. Do let me know of any progress on your application.

No you cannot speak with agent if you have representative

How come? Representative represents a person but cannot replace one. The applicant is still entitle to his own application.
