Hey guys,

Anyone here had this in their GCMS notes?
“Security Screening Type: Comprehensive (A34)”
Just wondering if it’s normal and how long it took for you.

Would really appreciate hearing about your experience

Hello everyone,
I submitted my application in March 2023. In my GCMS notes, I saw that a comprehensive security screening (A34) was requested in February 2025. I thought this screening was normal until I read a comment that made me concerned.
I don’t understand why it was requested, as I’m a peaceful person, never involved in the military, and have done nothing wrong.
Is this type of screening common for all protected persons, or just for me? Has anyone else gone through it? How long did it take? I’ve heard it can take 17 months or more—is that true?
Thank you.

I haven’t left Canada in over six years and haven’t hidden anything from them. I’m an academic, far removed from that kind of activity. But my country is a conflict zone.
Did they request this from you? If so, how long did it take?
