security/HIRV information are exempt from the privacy or access to information acts.

Today I called CIC and agent told me that we have received your medical and
all the information is there on your file and it is waiting for the review from the officer.

So it means a final review/decision ?

It is a little bit odd. I think you should ask CIC agents about this issue.

Hi All,

I just received the bloody PPR email.

My application took way more than normal. I am a Dec 2013 applicant and I did my medicals in late Aug 2014. I have been waiting 8 months after my medicals and I received the PPR email today. In summary, I was asked to submit any single document such as military proof card (I am Iranian), CV, list of publications, supervisor's info, POF, etc. My application was then sent to Program Integrity in January 2015. After a month being there, it was sent to New York VO in Feb 2015 for a comprehensive review. I did not want to stress out the forum and I did not mention it here. I called CIC after it was sent to NY VO and they told me it is sent there because of the high volume of applications being processed in Ottawa. I also met with my local MP a few times and his office inquired my application status. Each time, CIC just replied that security check is in progress. I do not know if it was effective to meet with MP and inquire from them, but it was worth trying and costless.

However, I got it and I am very happy. Just one suggestion to the people who are waiting for PPR, do not plan anything in advance based on others' applications. Each case is a unique process. Just live your normal life and try to focus on something that you have control on. Keep yourself busy with something enjoyable and try not to think about it. And finally be patient and hopeful.

I wish everyone receives the good news soon.
Cheers,

So it means a final review/decision ?

I think so, wait for the officer to render a final decision...

When you apply to an inland office for an immigrant visa, they request the Canadian Security Intelligence Service
for a background verification and a "security advice". The service then conducts a screening and replies to CIC with a report, based on the CSIS act. A visa officer then evaluates the report and determines whether you (and/or your dependents) meet the admissibility requirements of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) to be eligible for a PR visa. For most people this is the last step. If an application is made to a visa office abroad, the process is similar, except Canada Border Services (CBSA) is also involved as a middle agency between CIC and CSIS.

May I ask what security check is?
