Background & Security Checks
Note: Our Background Check comprises of 2
parts:
1. The Standard Documentation Checks,
2. The Security & Criminality Checks.
Standard Documentation Checks:
Our background check is done at the CHC stage.
It commences the moment our file gets the 1st
BFD by the VO. An indicator of which is the e-
CAS that shows "In Progress". All docs been
checked & our NOC being tallied against the MI,
if the VO finds our case 'eligible' for Canadian
PR, the file becomes 'Accepted'; and then it goes
for standard background checks, viz. Exp, Quals,
Adaptability, Qualitative Considerations etc.
The process involves many things. If our case
file is well presented and the enclosures vouch
the quality-quantity, adequate POF docs etc.,
there might not be a requirement of 'actually'
calling the employers, references etc. The VOs
have a way with that, they are experienced
enough to ascertain the logical disposition of our
case. But, if there are any concerns of his/her,
s/he is likely to ask for additional docs, do
further scrutiny vide any means [calling, visiting
etc.] & might ask for an Interview.
-Culmination : When 'fully' satisfied, we get the
'Medical Request'.
-Timeframe : Can be anything around 3-8 *
months, for the 'fast track' system (Avg. 4-5
months).
-eCAS : Continues to Show 'In Process'.
* The older system has a queue, thus can be
longer.
Security & Criminality Checks:
A part of the b/ground checks is the 'Security
Check'. It commences after our med results are
submitted to the CHC. This is a major activity -
mainly concerning our 'safe inclusion' into the
Canadian Soil; vis-a-vis, Political, Socio-
Econmical, Anti-Social disposition, perceived
Threat to Canada's integrity etc. This gets us
the SDEC, CDEC & SECCRIM.
This is a serious & time-consuming stage,
involving many agencies, including CSIS, Interpol,
NASC, Database Checking & touch-base with
Local Police. Many things are considered here...
the No. of countries visited, Applicant coming
from 'certain' countries, ex-Servicemen [including
Law Enforcement services], Prolonged stay in a
country w/out sufficient docs to prove cause,
frequent traveling to certain nations, your *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', our case goes into a 'spin'. Then our
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 [sometimes beyond 1yr]. But, usually
this stage should be over by 5 months max.
However, a point to be noted is that we can also
be called for an Interview [at this stage], due to
this reason.
-Culmination : Only upon security clearance we
receive the PPR.
-Timeframe : Around 2-6 months. Avg. 3 months.
[With new system, sometimes PPR is clubbed
with Meds]
-eCAS : Still 'In Process', but 'Med Results Recd.'
inside.

@Gbansiano

Have you completed your MR? If the DM was after your passport has been submitted, chances are that your visa has been issued and if 26days later no correspondence, you may want to drop a CSE.

If on the other hand, you have not completed MR, PPR etc and you are seeing DM, then you REALLY want to send a CSE to know what is REALLY HAPPENING. Goodluck

@ Gbansiano

MR = medical request. AVO sends you an e-mail requesting you (and family wife and kids) to complete immigration medical examination (IME). Along with the MR, they might (or probably later) ask you to pay a right of permanent residence fee (RPRF) for you & spouse as needed.

If all the above is done and all other documents and request has been completed, you will get a PPR (passport request), thereafter you should get decision made (DM).

However, if you have not gotten and completed the IME or PPR and you see a DM, then I will be a bit worried. If IME was okay, no outstanding document requests, RPRF has been paid and passport submitted and you see decision made (DM) 26days ago with no communication from AVO, then I will be cautiously optimistic that your pick up mail was probably lost in your junk mail or a system glitch and you never got. In this case, a CSE to AVO might wake them up.

1. Send a polite email to the email address that sent u d medical request

2. Raise a CSE.

All the best

@Gbansiano

I agree with @ preferred send an e-mail to accra.immigration@international.gc.ca

Put subject as "Urgent Inquiry - Application # Exxxxxxxxx" and also a CSE at the link below:

https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/case-cas-eng.aspx?mission=accra

Few things to ponder,

1) did you ever receive a request and paid the RPRF? When? Was this along with your MR or after
2) Did the hospital say anything about your medical test? Are you aware of any medical condition you have or history that could make you "possibly" medically inadmissible?
3) do you have CIC e-mail's address in your safe contact list? Am just wandering if something from CIC Accra did not end up in junk mail.

Am just thinking out loud here, if you supply more information we can make an educated guess.
