Hello everyone.. I hope that you are all doing well..
I submitted my refugee claim in 2022
My case is still pending the completion of the front-end security screening (more than 15 months since it was referred to IRB).
I've called IRB 4-5 times over the past few months. Every time I would be given the same response: No update, we (IRB) are still waiting for the completion of the front-end security screening. One IRB officer suggested that I send a webform to IRCC in an attempt to push things.. I did. IRCC replied to me confirming that my file is still in process.
IRB told me several times that taking such a long time for the front-end security screening has been actually quite normal, taking into account the huge backlog of refugee claims (273,000 refugee claims by pending determination by IRB by the end of 2024).
Are there refugee claimants like me whose cases are stuck pending
Is there anything that I can do to get the front-end security screening to be completed?
Should I continue to call IRB on a weekly basis?
Should I continue to send a webform to IRCC like on a monthly basis?
Can I contact CBSA or any other security-related organization to try to get an update?
Please advise.
Thank you all.
