March 2014 applications-----

[sherry.H]

hello friends , i applied under cec in march 2014 and i called cic yesterday and they said background check is in process , does it mean eligibilty is passed . any advise or suggestions ?
thanks

From my experience, "Background check in process" is a standard reply. It could be true or not.
I called one morning and a very rude call center agent said mine was "in process", no one were watching this and I have to wait etc.
However, I received PPR that midnight.

If you want to know how your case goes exactly, I recommend GCMS, even it cost 30 days for one.

Background status in progress may not imply eligibility is passed.
Check with them explicitly status for each of the below:

1. Eligibility
2. Medicals
3. Security
4. Criminality

Good Luck!!

yes we have 3, only one is Canadian so he's just coming for the ride. Lol

We have two and I always wondered whether a family application takes longer. Which country you folks from? I see visa-free, right?

it seems to be that way. Friends of ours just got their residency as well and they have 3 kids and they sent it off 2 weeks before us. We are from the UK. Is that where you are from?

Good luck to you!! I'm sure you won't have to wait too much longer!

The process is not transparent at all - quite shocking I think.

our friends sent their application off two weeks before us and our timelines have been totally different. Thankfully we have this forum or we would have been even more stressed out.
