Hello everyone

Or should be worried for that ? I am waiting the Passport request for more 8 months till now, please share your experience with me.

For me medical / last documents to application approved was over 10 months. I'm from a "boring" security-wise EU country, no 2nd review.
A co-worker who is from a less "boring" middle-eastern country waited for 2.5 years for security check to complete, despite the fact he lived in Canada for 5 years before applying.
 
Thank you so much for your respond , yes I can see your timeline in the left , Congratulation for your visa issued few days ago , Yes I am from the Middle east , My husband is a police officer there , So I think this is will add more complicated reason for the SECURITY CHECK PROCESS, Hopefully I can get it soon.
 
Thanks :-)

Just to clarify: I'm not saying that if you're from middle east you automatically will have a very long and detailed security check.

But if you are from / lived in a country that:
- is known for a hostile attitude towards Canada
- is subject to a military operation aided by Canada
- has been accused of funding terrorism
- is / recently was at war (or which has access to information about it's citizens information very limited/hard for other reasons)

It is bound to take longer. Not because someone is working against you, but because the check will be more thorough and access to necessary information more difficult.
 
Yes You are right , I think so , I am from Egypt , It is not so dangerous but my husband is working as Police Officer ;D However I am here since 2011 for working , All my work permits were accepted without any problem , but for my husband all his trails to join me were failed :D I lost all my hope to get PR for that reason
