9 more days left till my 6 month deadline. Totally not feeling positive that I'll be getting PPR in time. Have a strange feeling mine will exceed the 6 month mark.

Also, US-based applications don't always take longer. I personally know someone in the US who got PPR within 5.5 months earlier this year. Now I really feel those trends on the tracker may give us either false hopes or unnecessary concerns as each case seems to have a different trajectory. Only one thing is for sure: there are more and more cases not finalized within 6 months.

I am also US based applicant but Nepali citizen..My Aor is aug 20 .5 days left for 6 month and only background is passed so far.
hard to wait

Hi, that's right, AOR 24 Aug. Singapore VO. My file was transferred in Sept. I had emailed SGVO once and received a generic reply that the case was pending officer review.

Me and a few of my friends as well. All US residents, got it around 10 days within our deadline. 5.5 - 6 months.

There are for sure many cases linginring around the 6 month mark too.

And as much as I hate to say it, it depends a lot on individual cases.

Hey guys!
Earlier whenever I used to call at IRCC helpline, I used to get IVR notification that they are unavailable to find any information basis the information provided by me. However, now they told the status of my application on IVR. Does this mean anything or merely their systems got updated?

I noticed that as well. Few days back, when I called IRCC helpline status was unavailable. But, today IVR notification was available and read same as my online status. I also got to talk to agent twice today. First agent told that security and eligibility is not started, but criminality is in progress. I forgot to ask VO so called again. 2nd agent said that my application is being processed by New Delhi VO and he cannot access any information such as eligibility, criminality and security screening.

My AOR was August 13th, after passing my estimated completion date I sent them a web form asking what was going on, and they sent me the following...which I don't think is very helpful.

"Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

Furthermore, we verified the information on file and can confirm that:

• The security background verification has not been initiated.
• The criminal background verification is currently valid.

What do you guys think?

 

[Sntrada]

What I think is that you've passed criminality. Eligibility is still in progress and security hasn't started yet. It's pretty slow considering the 6-month period has already elapsed.

What's annoying is that they won't tell me what's going on. I'm seriously getting super disillusioned with this whole thing.

 

[Sntrada]

Yes, They don't disclose any further detailed information in their replies to webforms. I think the info in this reply is consistent with what you already know. Since you said you knew part of your documents was review required, it is not surprising that eligibility is still ongoing with security not starting at all. Once they have cleared that review-required concern, they will pass your eligibility and initiate security.

True...but, they can't review eligibility within that 6 months timeframe? It literally takes like 5-10 minutes for my documents. If they have a queue then give people an estimate.

Hi guys! I am confused between the terms criminality check, security check and background check. Are all 3 different or do criminality and security come under the broader blanket of background check?
