**Hint: If you stayed more than barely a few days in the United States, do yourself a favour and ignore the 6 months rule, and get your FBI PCC.
Would you mind to explain this, i traveled to USA as a tourist sometimes....it is less than 6 months combine (maybe 2 months total at most in last 10 years) so do i need to prepare this?

CIC has the discretion to ask for any document deemed relevant to one's application, and FBI PCC is no exclusion to this even if the stay was shorter than 6 months. They have the discretion to request any document they feel is necessary to process your application.
Although, you won't be required to provide one at time of submission, because the system won't be generating an upload field. However, I have seen many cases where they've requested a FBI PCC for applicants who barely stayed for a few weeks. Problem is, when you are asked for an additional document, you have around 30 days to provide it. When it comes to FBI PCC, you need to provide fingerprints, and sometimes the FBI rejects them due to poor quality, and you have to submit them again... While the clock is ticking. So it's just safer to get it, and have it ready if needed.
If you stayed less than 6 months in the US, you may or may not be requested for one at some point during the application.
Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it...
Do applicants from countries with low application rates get processed quicker? I'm from Jordan and the applications here are significantly lower that say India for example. How likely is it for my application to get processed in 2-3 months (assuming they don't ask for additional documents).

No that’s not the case. Infact since you are from the ME contrary to your belief it may take a bit more time to process the the application because of background check and security related aspects.
What you are basically referring the processing of green card related applications in US, which is quite true

Not the case at all! I am from Sweden and not many apply from here. But I saw alot of people from countries with many applicants get their copr before me. I am also not sure if the above commentator is correct about it may taking longer coz you are from a ME country. During my wait, I saw many applicants from countries that are generally regarded as "rouge" or "dangerous" get their copr much faster than me.

Agreed! Jordan should be regarded as a peaceful country.
But just as an extra, while I was waiting for my copr I saw alot of Indians get copr before me. And India is one of the countries with the most applicants. But at the same time I have also seen many Indians wait more than 6 months.

Protect yourself from the frustration, and aim for 6 months, with most likely no update in between.
No getting any update is frustrating. But what's worse is when you look for signs and updates, and not finding any.
Just aim and wait for the 6 months deadline to complete...
Hi guys,
With regards to delays in processing the application due to multiple travels, I have listed a lot of journeys but they were mostly to the same destination (England) where I studied. Could that delay my application?
