I order CBSA and csis almost every 2 months, they all in progress.

your medical is expired, have you receive medical request?
my remedical also going to expire in may 2024 file stuck in security from may 2023

I am not in Canada, so when my medical test expired, they ask me to do it again. About 400 CAD each time. I was asked to take 3 times already and the third time expired in the end of 2023

someone is very fast by 3-4 months, someone might be much longer...no one knows the exact procedure..

i see. since you are outland, it is very hard to predict the exact timeline to finish the whole steps...in regular the processing time is generally applicable for the inland applicants...

i have seen in other threads also people from China took more time for security.

I guess the issue comes from csis security screening. If the csis part has no progress, the application could not move

yes, I join in several WeChat groups, some of them includes 200 Chinese members, who suffer from security check in months even years

 

[jmdbsa]

Sorry to hear that. That's too complicated and in particular for those outland applicants...

I joined those groups as well and finally decided to quit them. So many negative emotions in there which will only make me more frustrated.
