I am frustrated by the fact that in my GCKey account, I cannot use the background check in progress as a guide to determine how much longer they are going to take with our app. Since they changed it to in progress over 8 months ago and I don't think it is because my partner has a complicated past ... e.g. never been affiliated with the military, no ties to terrorist groups ... unless they think he is associated with some drug cartel because he is Latino, I doubt there is anything in his past that is warranting 8 months of scrutiny with background checks. Yes we were in 7 different countries in Europe for a period of 3 weeks and other insignificant short vacations in the US and Argentina, however, only as tourists and no crimes committed by either one of us ... Anyways, I am ready to go back to my MP, although I didn't feel they were overly helpful, but I can't stand it sitting around here while my partner burns himself out working 12 hour days because he is afraid to quit his slave-driven job before he gets his PR. I am sure it is just because they have done not a whole lot with his criminality/security checks ... everything they wanted, we gave them upfront or right away. I should have sent in the RCMP report without the request as now from what I read, they likely won't issue PPR until after the 120 days, which won't be until November 21. Also his PCC from Chile is expired on November 13, so I am sure when they finally look at our file again (maybe it won't be until the end of November), then they will ask him to redo it, adding more time onto the process ... arrgggh! End of rant!
