No fix time, They take their own sweet time to reply. Generally, 10-15 days.

Background includes Criminality and security. Its difficult to understand what stage does IRCC mean when they refer to Background.
What about your gcms? Did you receive them?

Thanks! Many Nov people have been waiting for Rome to wake up for months. This is infuriating. Other VOs are all issuing PPRs

Yeah !

Rome is hibernating. Have a visitor visa since March that haven't got an answer to and permanent residence as of September.

I emailed them a couple of times and have been giving me the same response over and over.

Let me guess, you’re in queue to be reviewed by an immigration officer? LOL

I don't know where they have put my file, but its nowhere close to an immigration officer

The standard processing time is 123 days according to the website and I am on my 200th day. Not to mention that I have had three USA tourist visas in the past. I thought it would play a role in the processing times, unfortunately not.

It doensn't have any bearing on getting it processed faster, in getting it approved yes it does, but not processing times. We're all in this together , it's a patience game.

Patience for permanent residence perhaps yes, but tourist visa ?

They ask you exactly when do you plan to visit and I was planning to visit Canada in June this year, hence why I applied in March, plenty of time to approve/disapprove the application.
