The anatomy of a Background Check? - <<<<<<IN-DEPTH ANALYSIS>>>>>>>

[BaNana82]

No, records check and security are two entirely different things.

Thanks for the quick reply. Woah I guess patience is the key word in this process. At least it's essentially the last stage

Not sure in what context you are asking, but in general immigration parlance it means the that person in question voluntarily departures from the country.

When the applicant decides to leave after waiting for a long time with no progress on the processing of their application. Basically our situation.

Yes you can. They are separate procedures and the security screening may not have any impact on your work visa application

thanks for replay. So if I get a work visa it would be a normal work visa (I mean multiple entry) or special that force me to stay in Canada until my PPR is resolved?

Hello, I used both options. I mailed them a letter asking for more information and also filled in the online request.

The results were:

Mailed request:
Letter mailed to my provided mailing address stating on what date they received my application and on what date they finished processing.

Online request:

Package to my provided mailing address containing a CD. The CD just had one document in it. It was a two page "classified" screening request information form with CSIS and CBSA internal tracking numbers, priority information and application received and completed dates. There was a section of "Recommendation/Advice" with sub fields of "Recommendation", "Valid to", "Completed by" etc etc. Which may have been very valuable but it was all redacted. :/


Oh also, the confidential document had a field which said "CTC required" and next to it said "N" which I can infer stands for No. I did a little bit of digging online and found that CTC stands for counter-terrorism check. So that's a plus


Online request took less than a month for them to respond and for me to receive the package. Mailed request, I received response in about 6 weeks.

Yes, it shows in process since February 2017

Then you are in SS. Make a clear enquiry about yourself to make it clear it is for you not your wife.

Thank for your reply strength2. According to my GCMS notes, I am not in security screening. My security is passed (call center agents confirmed) but my file is under review and additional background verifications are being done. It that also considered as security screening?

I think background check is either security or criminality. Can you please send me the screen shot of the gcms?

Work visa by nature is multiple entry. The duration of the vis will depend on the offer and other the nature of your application.

When did you receive your AOR?
Anything within 6 months is normal.
Passed that is worth worrying; but not before.
