Yes I do remember you haq, 11 months is are not bad compared to other people I see on this thread. You know you can handle your application without a lawyer? They just take your money for nothing and most of the time they don't know what they are doing since they have so many customers. Yes you can request your GCMS notes after every 3 months to keep track of your file. You have people here on the forum who can assist you for free to check those NOTES if you don't understand them at all.

Normally when they ask for DNA test , if DNA test is proof that you are father , in many cases they approve
i also did DNA in last May 2015 and its proof that i am father but still they put me on interview ,and now
i am waiting for my interview .

You have interview after the DNA because there was misunderstanding between you and your wife. Thats one of the reasons but in most of the cases after DNA the interview is waved...it depends on case and the immigration officer.

Hi Eagle333,

Hope you are doing good. Need your valuable views.

As I already advised you that my re-medical was done on 12-May-2016. We were in contact with our MP and yesterday, MP office send an email to my wife as below.

" I spoke to immigration yesterday about your husband's application. I was told that the background security check is now in progress. That's good as it is the most time consuming process. Furthermore, the 'new' medical results will be valid until May-2017. And there is currently no outstanding document from the applicant. So it looks like he has to wait for the next instructions. if you do not have any news by mid October 2016, you may contact us for assistance. I trust this information is useful to you."

Need your views on above email received from our MP. Do you think that it is a positive signal?
Do you have any ides about background security check, I mean what they check? How much estimated time they can further take?

Look forward for your feedback. Thank you

This is a good sign, just need to complete the background checks to finalize your file, expect the passport request in the next couple of months. A girl on another thread had an interview, was approved and had to wait for instruction. After the remedical (three weeks after interview) they sent passport request, took about 6-8 weeks to be returned because they were completing background checks.

I don't know why your MP wants you to go see him since you can do things by phone or email. Maybe the of your Area works like that. I don't know what to say on this honestly speaking.

Hi Mrschino,

Do you have any idea about the difference between Routine Background checks and background security checks.!!

Previously, MP advised that my file was under routine background checks and now after re-medical, MP advised that our file is under background security checks.

Any idea?? Thank you

I answered this on your post under the dr thread... However I might be wrong!

I would think the background checks would be about the applicants life, relationship info, work info, etc. Security checks would be confirming they are still eligible and not committed any sort of crime since applying?? I'm not 100% sure, but it takes about 4-6 weeks after remedical request to get the passport request.
