Waiting after Background Check went in progress!

[HopefulDreamer101]

Have you tried ordering GCMS notes? Are you in Security Screening?

I did and strangely enough, it took them 2 months to send me the notes (went through a citizen friend of mine). Don't know if that had anything to do with the delay in the application process itself.
The notes say that I've passed everything but the 'security' area was deleted/ omitted out. so I can't even tell when they started it. Criminality shows passed.
No idea what to do next.

This is the nature of IRCC. You just have to wait it out. If your eligibility is cleared, you are all good. Security is a time consuming job, and if you are stuck there, then nothing much can be done.

Hi

I am an EE candidate, with timelines as below

27 April 17:- AOR
6 Jun 17:- Med cleared

Since then it's no update, tried sending e-form query but the response reads like this:- if you have not received a response by now, please send a query again.
I am outside Canada hence can't call them, tried but the call never went through, is there a number on which I can reach them from India/outside of Canada.
It seems that life has come to a standstill since I entered this process 2 years back.

Any help/guidance is appreciated.

Yeah, I guess I wait. It just seems unfair that I'm being made to wait for years while people who applied just 2 months ago are already in Canada. With a CRS score of 480 I thought I had an advantage. Silly me.

I am starting this new thread to have a discussion with applicants whose background check went to in progress and are waiting for the PPR. I believe that for inland applicants the BGC goes to in progress very soon after the application is filed, but for the outland applicants it is the last step in their application process. Recently the trend was also seen applicants whose BGC went in progress received PPR within a day or two, but I don't think that is the case anymore.

If you are one of them whose BGC went to in progress, please share your timelines. For those who are still, lets see what data we can find and chat while things are hopefully moving.

BGC start since April 19 2017 still waiting for PPR.

About 3 to 4 days.

PR approved and received. Also done landing over the telephone so did not need to leave my house.

Hello,

My medical have been passed since mid October 2017 and i m just waiting and waiting for my PPR. (past 4 months)

Can someone let me know the time it takes after Medical Clearance till PPR issuance on average. Just an estimate of roughly how many months.

Also, is it true that PPR issuance can at times stretch well beyond the medical eligibility year? Like my medical will expire on July 12, 2018. Will I be issued PPR before it or it can even go beyond it?

Passing medicals is not the ONLY prerequisite for PPR. Your application is probably in the Background check phase right now which, in my experience, is the lengthiest part of the application.
Yes, the processing of an application can sometimes stretch long enough to the point that the medicals expire. My medicals expired and I was asked to repeat them.
Good luck.
