Depends on so many factors since this is the time they start performing 'background checks' whose length varies among individuals including country of origin, number of countries visited, if one served in the military or not etc.
Personally, it has been more than a month since MER. Check the link below and at the top right on search, type 'country of origin'

A message posted by Qorax elsewhere explains that: security checks are often done by third parties not CIC. Depending on many factors this can be a time consuming activity... and it takes longer for some people depending on their country of origin, how many places they have lived... etc.

"Security & Criminality Checks:
A part of the b/ground checks is the 'Security Check'. It commences after our med results are submitted to the CHC. This is a major activity -mainly concerning our 'safe inclusion' into the Canadian Soil; vis-a-vis, Political, Socio-Econmical, Anti-Social disposition, perceived Threat to Canada's integrity etc. This gets us the SDEC, CDEC & SECCRIM.

This is a serious & time-consuming stage, involving many agencies, including CSIS, Interpol, NASC, Database Checking & touch-base with Local Police. Many things are considered here... the No. of countries visited, Applicant coming from 'certain' countries, ex-Servicemen [including Law Enforcement services], Prolonged stay in a country w/out sufficient docs to prove cause, frequent traveling to certain nations, your *Name (?), Inter-Religion/Nationality Marriages etc.

If everything is simple & straight, the file soon gets into the 'final review' stage. If there are any 'red flags', our case goes into a 'spin'. Then our file might go to the local Police/CID agencies; the outcome/timeframe of which is beyond the control of CIC. And thereby the timeframe can be anything [sometimes beyond 1yr]. But, usually this stage should be over by 5 months max. However, a point to be noted is that we can also be called for an Interview [at this stage], due to this reason.

-Culmination: Only upon security clearance we receive the PPR.
-Timeframe: Around 2-6 months. Avg. 3 months. [With new system, sometimes PPR is clubbed with Meds] "

Hi 2011july20 ,

I'm on the same boat and it's been a month since MER, no PPR yet. I have been lived in UK for 3 years not sure if that's why it took long time for security check. How many counties do you live in ?

I have only lived in two countries in my lifetime. If you prefer, you can send me a personal message (PM) for further details.
