Hello, we are on the same boat.
My application was received on May 23 2018
In process November 19 2018
BUT NO CORRESPONDENCE YET.

How did you received yours, email or snail mail?
Thanks!
 
there are 2 option now so don't panic, if you have IME request, you can order PCC
Hi Yulia I already have my mom’s police clearance done when I send her the documents to sign for the application. From what I read here people usually wait for pcc request before uploading. Should I wait for the request?

Thanks

i receive it tru email.
did you try checking ecas. maybe there is an update there.
 
Technically, how long does it take for background check?

It is different for everyone. Depends upon different factors. One of them is e.g if your parents works in Military services.

To keep it simple, i would say check the timeline sheets and look for time taken similar VO as of your parents. Then you would have an idea how much it would take.

Thanks

Same here. We did Med and PPC back in Sep. so far only received two bulletins from HK office. Not ever a real pre-arrival letter.
I don't think the pre arrival letter matters much, some people never got it before DM. If your case office is Ottawa, it will be fast in every aspect even with complicated background check. It is what it is, at this point I'm just grateful I could submit the application because it looks like the policy is changing every year and no guarantee we could submit in the future
 
Thank you. I downloaded from gc account.
What are the next steps after Medical is done? Approximately how much more time does it take to get PR?


After medical may be police clearance certificate. Then it is background check and passport request. It is different depends on parents's background and visa office. I would say check time line spreadsheet for Visa office same as your parents's visa office and compare.
 
Hello..i have got a question for all second round applicants who passed medicals ...does your GC key account says 'we are processing your background check'..just want to make sure we are at same stage...
 
really, cause i thought it will take about 5 years to get your parents here in canada?!

maybe because i have some correspondence in between like missing signature and additional documents requirement.

thanks.
yes, you delayed your case :cool:
