same here. Our case is in security check since Oct 2023.I have also been waiting with no response from Ottawa office for a while now. So I decided to get help through my MP office and they came back stating that my mother's application will take "27 months" to process. Background check is in progress. My mom was govt teacher. May be because of that her application is taking so long, I don't know what else to do at this point. Super frustrated!
