    Security screening type A34: comprehensive

    I’m originally from a Central Asian Country (Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, etc), and I think there are a few factors that may have contributed to the comprehensive A34 security screening, although I can’t say for certain because IRCC hasn’t given me a specific reason. I worked for a provincial...

    A34 completed for me, but the dependent PR background check is still "In Progress", anyone else in the same situation?

    Same here, mate. We are from Turkmenistan (being from a former Soviet country scares IRCC so much, I guess), and we have been an independent country since 1991. 35 years now, but no IRCC still sends all of us for the comprehensive background check even though we have been living here in Canada...

    btw IRCC sent both of us to CC check in Aug 2026 (I am the principal applicant). Mine got cleared in April 2026, but still waiting for her cc. She also never worked in the military, etc.

    Can I apply for masters from within canada on visitor status ?

    Kindly note that if you have been residing in a country for more than 6 months, your study permit application is usually processed by the visa office responsible for that country, not necessarily your home country office. For example, if your home country is Türkiye but you have been living in...

    Can I apply for masters from within canada on visitor status ?

    Hi Aysha, I think it helps to look at this in two separate tracks: your Master’s admission and your IRCC study permit application. From my experience: We’ve had a client (I was helping her with a resume & LinkedIn) who got their study permit approved while they were already in Canada on a...

    GCMS shows 'Security Screening' and waiting... - let's gather here!

    Exact words from IRCC: "CV/Resume: A document containing a brief description of your education, qualifications and experience."
