Moving one step closer! Just saw my background check changed from (background check in Progress to we are processing your background check!) Anyone have an idea how long pos takes to process background check once started?

If your hubby didn't travel much it shouldn't take long... From what I understand.

trinirock, honestly speaking no one really knows. I believe that a big part of the process depends on the officer who is processing your paperwork. I wish mine had made it to Trinidad instead it went to Mexico. I am from St. Vincent and the wait for me is excruciating

trinrock so someone told me that as long as I have wifi to download the App "Hangouts". So i did just that when it comes to checking my status from here in St. Vincent it's free. So is calling my relatives to yap in their ear lol; though you have to alert some because it comes in UNKNOWN. So you dial 1-613-944-4000. Follow the prompt 1-1-1-1-1-2-3. After 3, it'll ask you to enter the case number (minus the letter of course) Mine begins with F, so that is why my last letter for the prompt is 3. Then it will ask for birth year. Then you listen for the other prompts for your result. To me it's more accurate than when you check online. My background check has been stuck on, "we are processing your background check" since August 8th. Im being patient...................maybe

Does anyone know how to go about paying the VAC fees when dropping off your passport? My lawyer said we could pay in cash?
