Hi Guys

I called IRCC today to check the status of my parents PR application. Its been two years now I have submitted the application.
They mentioned Principal applicant(Father) background check is still in process where as dependent applicant(Mother) is completed. My father is a retired police officer, anyone have similar situation? do you know the background check is delayed cause he is from police department. or how long it takes for the police officers or govt job holders?

It's not "delayed" because he worked in a govrt job. His background check likely takes longer depending on how fast/good the country that he worked the job to check and share information regardling to his background there.

It depends, they might have sent his file to CSIS/CBSA for secondary screening which could cause delays, like it has for my dad who was in the army for 2 years (non-combat). My mom is the PA for the PGP file, dad is a dependant and only he had to undergo the secondary screening.
I made an ATIP request for my dad's secondary screening file, and I saw that the process took 3 months (May 9 to Aug 8) - it's been over 3 months since it was sent back to IRCC and IRCC still hasn't reviewed it/passed it.

that's true. It maybe inline for review afer the extra information obtained from secondary screening.

Same situation. Security screening started in Jan 2023 and it is still in progress. Called IRCC several times and got the same responses without an expected time for the process.

It takes approximately 4-6 weeks or so for IRCC. The one I sent to CSIS took 3 weeks.

What is the status on the GC Key? does it show "Final decision - <DATE> :Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made" ?

That’s a very long time to be waiting. It’s also past the 21 months processing time.
Have you tried calling IRCC or raising a web inquire through the webform?
I’ve also seen folks talk about requesting the notes on the file. I believe that is done through this link but I’m not certain. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...rmation-privacy/requests-information-act.html

Thank you For your reply,

I am tried webforms and did not got any reply back. I am requesting GCMS notes on the file. No progress. I have tried calling IRCC via phone, getting disconnected with message "Try another time"

It is not helpful. So was checking if someone has similar situation and know about it

Thanks
