Apart from this, I called CIC regarding my application status and enquired about the information given on GCMS notes. One of the Rep said that it is sent for pre screening.
Also I have mailed the immigration minister Hon’ Ahmed Hussain and have received following mail from the office:-
Dear ************
The Office of the Prime Minister has kindly forwarded to the Honourable Ahmed Hussen, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, a copy of your correspondence of April 18, 2019, regarding your application for permanent residence. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) is also in receipt of your correspondence addressed to Minister Hussen, on the same topic. I have been asked to respond to your concerns.
I appreciate you sharing the circumstances that prompted you to write. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) makes every effort to deal with the applications they receive in the most efficient and effective way. However, the many steps involved in processing an application, coupled with the volume of applications, sometimes make it difficult to conclude cases in as timely a manner as the Department would like.
Individuals who want to live permanently in Canada must meet certain requirements which include medical, criminality and security clearances. These requirements exist to protect the interests and safety of Canadians. IRCC conducts background checks by working together with partner agencies such as the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, the Canada Border Services Agency, medical authorities and agencies of foreign governments. Background screening processes are non-discriminatory and universal in their application. Any delays or requirements that our partner agencies may require in providing input are something over which the Department has no control.
IRCC records indicate that your application for permanent residence was received on August 18, 2017, and is being actively processed at the Centralized Intake Office. Records further indicate that security verifications are currently in queue for review by one of IRCC partner agencies.
While I cannot provide a timeframe for the completion of this application, please be assured that you will be contacted should any additional information or documentation be required, or once a final decision has been made.
While I understand that this may not be the response you had anticipated, I hope that you will find this information to be helpful.
Sincerely,
P. Rivard
