1) Yes, IRCC will request an ADR for military personnel irrespective of their current status.Hi Folks !
I applied for my parent-in-laws` visitor visa in Sep 2023 but there has been no communication since the biometrics which was in Oct 2023. My FIL retired from the army decade back and MIL is a housewife.
1) Is IRCC asking for additional documents (military service record) for all military personnel - Active and retired ?
2) What is the average time for such visitor visa applications? Any one else with the same timelines approx.
Thanks !
Thanks @Pdm_ca ! Oh its already been 6 months for me and they still haven`t asked for any docs. So first they should reach out for docs and then more waiting ! Wow ! Is this treatment special for India or across countries. Curious question1) Yes, IRCC will request an ADR for military personnel irrespective of their current status.
2) If you scroll back, one person who’d applied super visa for his parents in late December 2023 received it just1-2 days ago. So, fairly fast I’d say. Whilst some are waiting longer (> 6 months).
Honestly, with IRCC can’t say if they will ask for docs but looks like majority of us did get the ADR. I don’t think country mattered in this request. Maybe you will get ADR soon or will pass w/o one! It’s the discretion of visa officer at the end of the day.Thanks @Pdm_ca !

Thanks again ! I applied on the IRCC portal not on GC Key. I raised the webform twice and called them up too. I believe they have put up an automated IVR on the call which asks to raise a webform ultimately. Do you have any number /ID where they reply or pick up the phone?Honestly, with IRCC can’t say if they will ask for docs but looks like majority of us did get the ADR.

Also, apparently the general consensus is seeing faster movement if applied on new portal. Did you apply on old or new ?
Have you tried calling IRCC for an update since it’s been that long?
Hoping to hear back soon. It is more than a year now. @MoodyCanAda . I also think the average timeline you mentioned is correct!So I believe response to your case is nearing.... There is no fixed timeline for BG checks, depends, how easily information can be verified. But our prayers, may you get a positive outcome soon. Typically ppl get response from between 5 months to 18 months (my assessment- I may be wrong), IRCC never says anything about that...
No, did you had? @mann20Does anyone taken consultation from Immigration Law firm (Immigration lawyer NOT agent) regarding this matter?
