My background checks started on 31 October. I hope we will hear good news very soon..
If they received your husband application on 28 of February 2016 and he resides in Jordan or UAE both of them processing times is 15 months according to cic website, so you still didn't exceed your processing timesokara said:for people who are upset i just want to say i applied to my husband since February 2016 and up till now background check .. i believe if the background check was for Usama Bin Laden they should have a result by now. I have sent three emails and their reply is the same as below

Inshallah you hear good news soonsokara said:hi W.M,
my husband application was sent on begining of Feburary not end. If you follow the forum from long time you would see that some other applicant got their application finalized within 3-6 months some other by 8 months. But my poor unfortunate husband it's been 13 months now.
And yes i can see clearly that the freakin processing time is 15 months but i will be very much glad to accept it, if it is the same for everyone.
it is not fair to see people who applied in August at the same freakin visa office got their visa and us who applied in Feb still waiting you sense what am saying ?
i hope u do
