Hi everyone, it seems that since last year, IRCC has conducted a large scale of security check aiming to overseas applicants. However, admissions/medical report/CAQ will expire after a year. So I wonder what's the average proccessing time for the security screening ?How many people waiting for thier study permits over a year? Thanks!

Hello, I hope you are ok.

Have you got your visa? If yes, how long your security screening took.

My security check has been in progress for almost 7 months.

I will be happy to know your situation.
Thanks

Hahah I think we have contacted before in a Whatsapp group. My visa office is also Abu Dhabi. However I got an update on my tracker but there was nothing on Friday March 22 2024.
 
Hi guys, I finally got PPR on May 10.

Now I am going to send my original passport to Abu Dhabi embassy through vfs in Islamabad. How long do you think Visa Stamping is going to take ??

Thanks
