PR applicants from Iran

[rajahoomi]

Salam Homan,
Fro your eligibility, look at the notes at the end of the notes. There you can find more details on job experience letter, etc. As long as there is no sign of review required, you should be fine.
For security, check the following sections:
1- admissibility
2- security status on second page
3- activity 1-5
4- Notes
Do you see any redaction with s.15, s.21 or something similar on top of the page?

I can see these:
1. Adminissiblity
There is 1 security activity on my file the
SECURITY : 1
ALL BLANKED OUT FOR 2 pages

SECURITY: 2
Date created: 2018/09/25
Update Date: 2019/03/29
status : CANCELLED
Due Date: 2019/09/25

2. Security : empty

3. In activity 7 it seems they have cancelled a security check and in activity 6 I see another security ith the new value saying NOT STARTED
activity 5 is also Security and it seems the New Value is blanked and Activity 1-4 are all blanked...

4. In the notes NOTE 3 till 5 are for them receiving my ADR and NOTE 1 and 2 are blanked with the Label: Adm. Note
NOTE 6 is for my eligibility review by the officer which is set to PASSED with no Review Required.

It seems there was a security check that was initiated in 2018/09/25 and was cancelled in March when the officer reviewed my application and started a different one when the ADRs were asked...

The Due date on the security is also 2019/09/25 which is 2.5 months from now!!! If that is when the officer is going to check the result of my BC it is sooooooooooo frustrating...

Yeah, these are the signs that you were under SS. People under SS usually can see lots of these redaction in admissibility, and activity sections.
However, I still don't know what is going on with this "cancellation". So, if they cancelled it, who is going to assess it and set it to passed. Does it mean that you are not under SS anymore? I don't know should you be happy or sad?
What was the due date on page 1 or page 2?
How about criminality? Is it passed or not?

I am under security check... They had it started in October 2018 and cancelled it when my eligibility was passed (March 2019). Then they started a new security check in March 2019 after asking for ADR.
Criminality, and Medical were PASSESD in Oct 2018 while Eligibility was set to RR , then Eligibility passed in March 2019... So everything is passed except for the security

I actually found S.21 on top of the second page... on both my previous and the new GCMS notes! What does it mean?

 

[Mr_nobody]

It means that you are under SS and due to that they won't disclose some of your information. you should be able to see the same thing in other section (activity, notes, admissibility)

You think it worth ordering CBSA notes at this point?

 

[Immigration_guru]

You think it worth ordering CBSA notes at this point?

If you know that your security is under process from last 25-40 days, you should order CBSA notes. If it has been more than 45 days. think of ordering CSIS and CBSA both.

 

[Mr_nobody]

CBSA notes is exactly the same as GCMS , except that it does not have those redactions. In CBSA notes, you would see more info regarding security, the date when it started, etc. But, it does not give you any more information regarding when it is going to be finished and what stage you are at. It does not speed up the process and it does not have influence on the process.
Ordering it just gives you some info, that is it.
The only think that I am curious and would be tempted to order if I were you is the "cancelled " one. I wanna know what happened to that one? are these redaction related to the cancelled one or are they requested for new security and these redaction are due to the new request.

So I compared it with my older GCMS note and the one that I received yesterday.
The old GCMS notes => Only 1 security section that the the information is redacted except for the date it was created which is 2018/09/25

New GCMS notes => 2 security sections first one blanked and the second one has the date created (2018/08/25) and cancelled status.

I think the officer has decided to change the type of security check probably...

In GCMS notes the security-related info is retracted. These can be seen in CBSA notes

But, isn't your AOR Aug. 31th?! So did it start before your AOR?!!!
Anyways, probably it was regular security that was initiated by one of the case analysts in the beginning of your file. Then, the officer decided to cancel that one and initiate SS.

I don't know how exactly you explained, but try to explain anywhere that might create confusion for them. Make everything as clear as possible

Actually, I submitted it without any LOE, thinking the minor changes are clear and the travel form is correct and complete, but now I am worried about not sending any LOE (a brief note explaining changing cities of destination from those of the initial application). The deadline is already passed and I already submitted the ADR. Can I send just a simple LOE referring to that ADR? Do you think any LOE is needed at all? I appreciate your insight into my dilemma.

Salam Arash jan, mamnoon aziz, lotf kardi
How are you? Have you decided when you are going to land or not?

at first, I was going to land in the end of July, however I have changed my mind decided to land in the first week of September.

Not really. I think what you did is good enough. Don't worry yourself about it. They just want to check where have you been. Again, since it was your country of residence, you don't have to worry. People move a lot and it is something expected. They are more interested to see if you travel to other countries. Also, the cover letter that I said was just for "mohkam kari". But it is not mandatory or required.
Anyways, you can always raise a CSE and send any new document that you think might be helpful for the application, but for this case. I don't think it is necessary.

Great. Let me know if you have any question about Canada. I might be able to help
