background check is done by cbsa not by cic
cic sends your file to cbsa once its done cbsa sends it back to cic.
once cic rec your file they issue the visa. I did some research cbsa can take from 9-18 month to clear each case for pr visa
and 10 to 20 days for trv visa (vistor). the embassy in beirut requested comprehensive security for my wife as per cbsa notes.
security check is done for both applicant and sponcer even im a canadian cit for more then 18 years they embassy requested security for both of us.
my wife just completed 8 months of security i hope it doesnt take any longer this is very stressful

why would they do a security check on yourself if you live in Canada? That doesn't make sense, I think they only do a background check on the person that is travelling to Canada (your wife).

Hello

So it seems we are still all in the same boat

security check is taking time on Middle East people even if we are canadian

I don’t to be mean but I think from what I hear from a friend it’s all depends from which region hou are

They asked the wife of a friend she is from the south and which political party she is .... I heard same another story

This is insane.... I am more canadian than lebanease. I hope to stay here but if it will take more than year I have to leave and stay near my husband

My country is kicking me out, and they are accepting illegal people from US

Hi Ali,

When you say CBSA notes do you mean the gmc notes? or is there another note that we can order?
Hi its another set of notes you order it from the same place where u order ircc noted
Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) Online Request
then pick cbsa first on the list
get the electronic copy not paper your husband need to sign a consent form u could find https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/publications/forms-formulaires/bsf745-eng.html
its diffrent then ircc consent form
this is the agency that handle security check
