Military Police record request

[canadauser45]

Hi, I applied for Super Visa for my parents in Dec, 2025. My father has worked as govt employee in BSNL, Telecommunocation company, now retired for last 5 years. He never served in Police/Military.

I selected No for all the Military/Police related questions. But selected "Government Position" while giving details about Job, I think I should not have selected this option, as this is only to be selected if person has worked as civil servant, judge, mayor, Member Parliament, hospital administrator or employee of a security organization. I guess selecting this option was mistake on my side.

I received the request in March to provide Military/Police service record details to which I responded that my father never served in Police/Military. Now the application is stuck in background verification process.

Can anyone confirm if selecting "Givernment position" triggered the Police/Military request?

If yes, what should be the next coarse of action, should I withdraw the application and submit again with correct details?

You can write a Letter of Explanation and provide details as much as you could (i.e. your Dad pension id and slips and retirement letter to show he never worked in the military) and update through webform and talk to the customer service and explain the situation.

You shouldn't have unless it was like:

• Civil servant;
• Judge;
• Police officer;
• Employee in a security organization;

My father served in the IB (Intelligence Bureau), which falls under a government position, but he's since retired. Does this mean his super visa application will be rejected, or will it just stay in processing indefinitely?

Impossible to say but expect long processing.

I have applied super visa for my father on July 26th 2026, given upfront medical on Oct 28th, also got mail to provide imm 0150 doc to provide all of his postings while he was working as police officer now he is retired. Does this mean do I need to wait for years to get visa or does anyone got visa like this backgroud in months
