I don' know why some or more application goes into SS, but as i know why my application gone under SS becouase i recieved this kind of email from NDVO and i guess by outside agancies they doing security sceerning which done by CSIS and many other agancies all over the world...

In this context, certain background investigations are being conducted in connection with your application. As these investigations are conducted by outside agencies, we have no purview over the processing time. We are therefore unable to give an exact time frame in which we expect to conclude the verifications on this case.

becouse outside agencies means that they are doing security sceerning.

The following is an old post but it gives you some insight on why there might be additional security checks on a PR application.

Sorry this happened to you. May I know after how many days from the AOR did you get the rejection?
If it is R10 rejection it usually happens within 40 days maximum...

Hello...

Nice explanation, thank you very much...
My AOR is Sep 1, 2018
I was resident of Saudi Arabia for 2 years and went on final exit in April 2018.
I forgot to obtain Saudi PCC at the time of exit and so explained about it in the LoE.
My application is still under review with IRCC.
Will there be any issues ?

How will IRCC clear criminality if there is no PCC submitted ??

Thanks




Part 2 of 2: Most Common Reasons for Rejection

Most common is PCC:

a. Not included

b. No Coloured Scan attached

c. Dates don't cover complete period of stay (for e.g. you stayed in one address until 13th August but PCC cover dates till 31st July – don’t miss even one day)

d. The wrong PCC attached (includes not attaching PCC where you have lived more than 6 months – calculate your stay duration by adding all stays and include PCC if combine stay is 180 days or more)

e. LOE: Not writing explanation of why you weren’t able to attach PCC required and what you have done so far – attach evidence such as PCC Application submitted

f. Incomplete Documents – Some countries require additional documents such as consent forms for IRCC to directly get info therefore, it is important to read carefully CIC Guidance for each specific country before applying.

g. States PCC – Some countries do not have Central/Federal PCC System and therefore, you are advised to get PCC from all states you have lived (For work, study, and residential purpose excluding short stays). In addition, read CIC guidance, as they sometimes require Federal PCC as well instead of just State PCC.

h. Change in Circumstance such as visiting country after having PCC will not remain valid so you need to be careful and may need to apply for PCC again.


Medical Reports:

a. This includes failure to get Upfront Medical or After Letter from IRCC for any reason.

b. In addition, if you have any physical or mental issues the IRCC will reject your application and will advise you to set a meeting with your panellist for further advice or treatment plans – I know some people who recovered after some medication or physiatrist help and got PR later on.

c. Very rare but most significant error I saw was when one person submitted a report from a doctor who was not registered as approved panellist – see from CIC website before booking appointment.

d. Ensure you know what tests are required. Although, it is very rare on one occasion candidate only told panellist that she needs a test for Canada not indicating PR (nowadays for EE) and result was that Full Examination was not done resulting in rejection. {However, that panellist was dropped from approved list after short time but you must be careful if you are not booking appointment from well-reputed institute or Doctor.}


Conversion of Files:

a. Only convert files in the approved format and not just what suits best to you

b. If you are using software’s or online tools for PDF conversion then it is recommended to test it on different readers (such as Foxit or Adobe) before submitting. IRCC will be using Adobe Acrobat so make sure your files (all pages) will open in it. There is a case where IRCC rejected the incomplete application due to files not opening in Adobe (file was converted using Foxit).

c. Your documents must be clear and readable after reducing its size (it is recommended to not have a file below 150)

d. Always convert or scan your file in Color version unless where states by the IRCC to have a grayscale or black and white.


Passport and Visa Status:

a. It is important to attach your Passports and Residential Cards (if applicable) along with your file.

b. Make sure all pages with stamps are also included as IRCC rejected the application in past for not having a stamp for existing of one of the countries.


Education:

a. Not including ECA report or only including ECA number

b. Not including Degrees and Transcripts – please note that IRCC will reject incomplete files unlike OINP, which asks for additional information.

c. If you have distant learning course or studied in a different country than where the Institute is located then include this in Letter of Explanation and clearly mention your status.


Experience:

a. Not including Job responsibility letters or not matching with NOC.

b. Documents submitted cannot be verified the due lack of information of company available online.

c. Company registered in the house or residential area that may raise the question on quality of work performed.

d. Could not answer questions or satisfy officer during a formal interview.


These are the most common Reasons identified from the sample of more than 1,000 applicants in 2016/17.

Hi everyone I received my ITA on 12 Dec and now I m in process of filing my application . my spouse was working on cruise ship in 2008 - 10 how do I get the pcc or what should I explain instead[/QUOTE

She must have signed on from a port and signed off from a port, rest of the time she must be in international waters incase the vessel was FG. So no need of any PCC. Just attach her CDC with the passports. It will act as the official travel document.

My AOR is December 29, 2018. I have raised 2 CSEs previously to submit missing documents (original language documents). Now I am considering to raise a 3rd CSE because i realized that i forgot to mention one of the countries that my husband visited in his Travel History. Will raising multiple CSEs affect my application negatively? Has anyone raised several CSEs, how did it go for you?

As far as I know raising CSE's doesn't have any negative impact...maybe seniors can confirm....
After all we are humans, we do forget...And you are being honest and genuine in letting them know...So shouldn't be anything bad...

Thanks..I'm thinking maybe its better to wait for the MEP and completeness check first and then raise this 3rd CSE. As 3 CSE's could make my application seem as incomplete. At what stage do they do the background check of the Travel history?
