After a long time the High Comm conducted verification from my Office. Can i assume that the case is maturing and on final stage. what will happen next? Can anybody share his experience.

of course this is a progress in your case. but just for the interest of other members here, can you please share some details like how the verification was done, who was contacted in your office, what questions were asked, and similar things ... etc etc? i'm sure this will be of interest to many of us who are still waiting for verification and provisional acceptance.

if all went fine in your verification, you will be provisionally accepted and remaining stages will be medicals, passport stampings etc.

Dear Manj & Ringmorale

Have a look at this:

Immigration Screening
The screening of potential immigrants to Canada is a complex process which involves several government departments and agencies such as Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC), Health Canada (HC), Human Resources Development Canada (HRDC), and RCMP and CSIS, each of whom has specific responsibilities.
CSIS provides advice to the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration on prospective immigrants and refugee claimants. Such advice relates directly to the security inadmissibility criteria contained in Section 19(1) of the Immigration Act, with the final decision resting with the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration.
Amendments to the Immigration Act introduced in 1993 have had a significant impact on the security screening of prospective immigrants. The amendments have broadened the scope of Section 19(1) of the Act by including the word terrorism, the notion of membership, and more significantly, the inclusion of past activity as grounds for inadmissibility. These amendments represent an attempt to bring Section 19(1) into closer alignment with the definition of "threats to the security of Canada" found in Section 2 of the CSIS Act.
The screening of prospective immigrants wishing to resettle in Canada has been streamlined since 1991 and the Service gets involved only in cases where an applicant's background presents security concerns. This determination is done on the basis of analysis and experience, and in cooperation with CIC officers posted abroad.
Queries with foreign agencies are sometimes necessary but the Service remains ever-vigilant to sources of information operating from a self-serving agenda. Any information supplied to the Service by a foreign agency is evaluated against what the Service already possesses and the previous reliability of the supplier. It must also be considered that reliance on foreign agencies for criminal and security checks can result in lengthy processing delays.
All relevant information collected by CSIS under the Immigration Screening program, on either prospective immigrants or refugee claimants, is thoroughly analysed in order to assist CIC in its subsequent decision as to whether they are inadmissible under the Immigration Act.
In 1996/97, the Service processed 50,444 requests from CIC under the Immigration Screening program, including 7,779 applications from refugee claimants. The Service's average processing time was 42 days, with approximately 50 percent of all cases completed within this time-frame. The remaining 50 percent averaged 177 days to complete. Less than one percent of all cases took longer than 12 months to process.

Dear Khalidsubhan,

The information you provided below was indeed a revelation for me, thanks very much for the same. One more thing, can you please explain verification process step by step. I always thought that security cleareance takes place after provisional acceptance. If that is not the case then can you please explain if there is any order to the same, as i just went through employer verifications myself.

regards.

Come on' people,

Why were you migrating if you didn't know the benefits? You are entitled to;

1. Free education from day-1 for all children up to high school level. (Govt High School type and not the elite private schools!) You pay hefty amount in college fees. Most local Goras therefore opt NOT TO GRADUATE.
2. Children allowance starting from birth till 18 (?) years age. Normally it is more ($450) in the beginning and gradually reduces ($150) in the end. (THIS IS ONE GOOD POINT WHERE PARENTS USE THE MONEY ON FAMILY AND WHEN IT COMES TO COLLEGE EDUCATION, A CHILD CANNOT PAY HEFTY FEES OR IS FORCED TO TAKE STUDENT LOANS WHICH HE KEEPS REPAYING THROUGHOUT HIS LIFE).
3. Jobless allowance - Barely lets you survive. You have to take the job whenever and whichever is offered irrespective of your choice. You refuse two or three times, you will never be given this allowance.
4. Health Insurance - Govt pays your medical bills, provided you pay taxes. Long wait times, long queues, no choice of self medication. (Means that you cannot buy off the shelf medicine and treat yourself).
5. Child's rights - You could land in jail if your child reports abuse against you as parent on 911.
6. Child could be taken away from you if neglect.
7. Freedom for children above 18 years of age - they choose whom to live with (they call it legal and in our society it is a shame) and marry their partner, if at all they want. Parents have no rights!
8. Your Landlord can enter your house any time without your permission, with his duplicate key - legal.
9. Police can put handcuffs on you publicly even for very small misunderstanding. Of-course they take it off after they sign you in.
10. Police can enter your house without search warrant. (Sounds strange, isn't it?)

The listed sequence above does not happen with everyone, but it CAN happen to anyone. Many many more benefits which I may not recall off-hand. For peace-loving people the life is certainly good (if not prosperous). There is peace of mind, discipline, regularity and a clean life. The trick is to become like them to be treated like them!

You may have control on your children to some extend, but mark my words, the next generation would throw you out if you ever try to impose your Pakistani views or Islamic morality!!!!!!!!!!!

People please plan. Plan to obtain maximum advantage in minimum time. In my opinion, Pakistan is the land of biggest opportunities for educated and uneducated both.

Best regards and sweet dreams.

ABOUT CHC-REPLY

I hope you are well aware of this fact but just wanted to write this for others. According to my information, there is just one person CHC-ISB who receives almost 200-300 inquiries per day. He has to reply them as well, so the replies are usually a copy - paste from pre-made templates.

I believe, your file is also with Canadian Intelligence department and it will take very long for both of us. I talked to a previous employee of CHC-ISB and he said: It can take from 2 months to almost an year. So the only thing that we can do right now is to just sit and wait. The embassy will not touch our files till they recieve a green signal from the security branch :S

Khalid Bhai, Congratulations on the successful operation of your mother.

Does this mean, that those who went through medicals have successfully passed the background check, or is there any more verification required.

[KhalidSubhan]

 @  Domingo

Thank you very much brother

 @  Jhasan and Domingo

The cases where candidates are from Armed Forces / Sensitive Government organizations, are normally  referred to these kind of security checks. For normal cases, usually the police clearance certificates are enough.

Those who have got the medicals are certainly not into this kind of security check, however, it depends on the Immigration Officers, they can certainly recommend this kind of security check, at any stage of the process

[Manj]

My two nephews are getting it, like all other children in Canada. They are 13 and 11. My regrets, I do not have any other 'official source' to quote from.
