Hello everyone

I’m a Refugee in Turkey we ve been sponsoring with refugee programs sponsorship everything went so smoothly until we get to the Interview in Ankara ,
After it the visa officer ” said i can’t decide i need time to preview “ after 10 days I got an e-mail with (Procedural Fairness Letter)
So I was with the lawyers working on the replay so we sent it in 03/12/2019
So until today there is nothing but I sent an e-mail to the Embassy week ago asking about if there is anything been made on my application so they replay me
with this :
Under Canada’s immigration legislation, all immigrant applications are subject to statutory requirements, including medical and background checks. These requirements must be satisfied before an applicant can be resettled to Canada as a protected person. In this context, certain background investigations are being conducted in connection with your application. As these investigations are conducted by outside agencies, we have no purview over the processing time. We are therefore unable to give an exact time frame in which we expect to conclude the verifications on this case.

So according to my understanding my application in Background check
So what is the next step ?
Is there any time line to make a decision ?

Recently i was searching online for more informations about that but nothing ve been found..

A Procedural Fairness letter means that your app will no longer follow standard processing times. No one can tell you how long it will take.

The purpose is to verify everything that you've said and that your are not a security risk to Canada.

Background checks can take weeks or years. Again, no one can tell you how long.

If something is found in your background that poses a risk to Canada, it’s far easier for Canada just to say no, you’re not allowed to come into the country and refuse your application
