sometimes they can even do it in one day...

right now it's the matter of actually getting the security check initiated, which is not happening. Some applications have been sitting in that uncertain stage for months now, just waiting for them to be sent to that security check stage. Why they are not sending them out to conduct those checks remains a mystery to me.
@petaji is Feb 9th applicant. Currently, he is at 16 months which comes under 18-months processing time.
So, VO is simply relaxing & wants to initiate security check in the last moment.
 
those statuses don't mean anything, you have to talk to the actual person to see what stages of the BG are done and which are not.
Right now it looks that they've stalled security checks, not sure why.
Of course I called them and asked the agent about my security check... and he said that it hasnt started yet :/

Your application crossed 18-months dead line.
You are inland or outland?
Why don’t you meet with local MP?
Did you added spouse in the middle of the process?

I have already asked MP, after doing follow-up , he said to wait for another three months and come back again if you didn’t get Pr within 3 months. Don’t know what’s the reason my security is not initiated yet .
