Is that true that RCMP check police is now taking longer to get them? how long could be? ( maxim time)

The RCMP check police that CIC office request when you get sponsored.. I would like to know how long does it take to get them? is there a maximum time?

There have been changes and I know it takes longer than it used to. Three to four months I believe. Even a criminal record check for a job takes longer now.

 

[Rister]

ohh!! do you think will be maximum 4 months? I can't believe it...now even the RCMP takes a long time...

I just had to get a criminal record check for a job and I applied on a friday afternoon and it was ready for pick up on the following monday afternoon. I don't think 1 business day is too long.

Except you probably had only a name check in CPIC , not a fingerprint check.

Depends what kind of check you were having done. A RCMP back ground check for immigration is sent to Ontario, (well that was where mine was sent anyway) not locally.

To the OP..... I shouldn't worry too much about the time line. I sent mine in with the application, just in case they needed it (still not sure if they ever did by the way). So even if it takes 6 months, still well within the application time line anyway, so no real problems.

Yes but I was replying to the issue of background checks for a job and not for immigration purposes.

it took almost a month to arrive at my home by mail. They process really fast, however, it takes longer to arrive by mail.
