Most likely CBSA.

No it was not cbsa.

No it was not cbsa.

There aren't that many agencies left after that, really - RCMP, but I don't see their role if it's not something domestic (which you would probably know about, like criminal charges), or IRCC itself.

Yeah I know. I am confused too.
RCMP is already cleared for me
CBSA I checked with them. Nothing is pending on CBSA.

CSIS.. The interviewer didn't mention CSIS. They said something else.

Maybe it's something we are not aware of... But i am so pissed at not asking the person clearly

It's more likley that they misspoke, IMO, i.e. that it was actually CSIS.

Or made a reference possibly to some internal section in IRCC, or used a blanket term that you didn't catch.

Did they mention clearance from where? Or did you ask if you can follow-up with that agency where clearance is going to come directly??

No they never said what agency, I just know it's either RCMP or CSIS. Criminality is RCMP, and security is CSIS. Because I know for a fact my GCMS notes say I passed criminality, the pending clearance has to be CSIS.

Exactly, it's only RCMP or CSIS. Check this old document that shows the process of background check. There arent that many agencies, CSIS is the highest level of security agency in the country. https://www.docdroid.net/vfvZo4b/cp6-prohibitions-wxmwij-pdf#page=32
