Hi Sam,
Can I ask you the reason of your security check? for me I have travelled to many risk countries, even if it's for my work.
also everyone keep saying that we can only wait and there is nothing to do but I see that many of those who got PPR have contacted IRCC or CSIS.. have you tried this?
Cheers

Dear worriers

I thought it is a good idea to start a thread for those waiting for more than 15 months without a final decision. This will give us a better insight and information about our case.

I will start by introducing my self:

Name: Sirgic
AOR: OCT 2015
Processing time: almost 19 months
Visa office: Abu Dhabi

Pls write to cpc-ctd-ottawa@cic.gc.ca to check the status of your application. May be it will help!

From what I know and seen in the forum, the usual reasons for such extensive delays are:-

1 - Work History in Military, police or government.
2 - Frequent travel to countries in war or unstable governments.
3 - Citizens of the above countries.
4 - Anything else in your travel or personal information which is a red flag for them and it goes into deeper extensive security checks.

On the brighter side, by now you have passed all eligibility checks since that's done within the first 6 months! So by now, you are sure to get a PPR if you are a decent law abiding citizen. Sadly there is no option but to wait it out.

Unfortunately, when it comes to security checks, all nationalities are not equal.
