Hi everyone,

I got AOR in October 2019. They requested for re-medical last year in August 2020. After that there is no update. Its been exactly 15 months and there is no any other update after that. I understand there could be delays due to Covid but its been 15 months now. GCMS notes state Eligibility, Criminality and Medical : Passed, Final: Approved
When I call them, the agent says you should get PPR soon but I have been hearing this since 2020. Any idea what should I do next?

Hey...The Interview is required email you got from NDVO was in reference to any status that you asked or Did you get it as a notification from them? I am trying to understand the correlation here as I see two other folks getting this email.
My ATIP notes in Oct 2020 showed Interview is Recommended. I raised a webform to NDVO on Nov 2020 asking for the status on my application. They replied back on Dec 2020 with Interview is Required status.

Notes status is the same as my last notes I received August last year:

Eligibility: Passed
Security: Not Started
HIRV:
Criminality: Passed
Org Crime:
Medical: Passed - Expired
Misrepresentation:
Info Sharing: Complete
Other Reqs: Not Started

However, when I checked the notes in detail, about 90 pages have been removed with a note saying "Pages are withheld pursuant to section 16(2)(c) of the Access to Information Act". The same note also appears in my parents' notes who applied for a visitor visa. Since my security has not started, I am thinking that this is not related to security screening.

When I checked section 16 online, this is what I found:

Security

(2) The head of a government institution may refuse to disclose any record requested under this Part that contains information that could reasonably be expected to facilitate the commission of an offence, including, without restricting the generality of the foregoing, any such information

  • (c) on the vulnerability of particular buildings or other structures or systems, including computer or communication systems, or methods employed to protect such buildings or other structures or systems.
@daveishan do you know anything about this?

@daveishan what does it say in your background check section when you login online? Mine changed to Not Applicable. Not sure if that means anything.

Most of the cases where i have seen that changing to NA is when an Employer Verification email is sent or a call is made. Do check with your employer if he got an email? It might also be related to Security but for that most of time the BG changes from "We're Processing" to "In progress". Never the less, with IRCC, it's dificult to predict with the changing dimensions.
