You are probably in security screening and that’s why IRCC puts extended one year due date on your file.

I think someone said you cannot see notes for security screening. It won’t be disclosed to you and you have to order CBSA notes to find out

Thank you for your support.

The due date has no relevance. It is a system generated date and most application are processed way before that or have to wait way longer. As per your notes, which are month old, your security is going on. You can consider requesting CSIS or CBSA notes to see if they have finished the involvement in your case.


With the above extract, can't say more than this.

hey legalfalcon, i found this guide on application processing here https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/post-e-apr-process-and-common-reasons-for-rejection.510587/

Basically, this mentions one additional stage that your guide does not.
It says after eligibility, criminality and security are cleared, your file is sent for A40/fraud test. I was wondering if you can comment on it's accuracy?
Could this be the reason why some applications are stuck forever and will gcms notes mention whether or not your file is in A40?

thanks a bunch!

The regulation cited is correct, however, this is not the chronology in which it happens. It is important to understand that misrepresentation can be triggered even during eligibility. When an applicant's documents are verified.

Generally see - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/protect-fraud/document-misrepresentation.html

The regulations states:

Misrepresentation

• 40 (1) A permanent resident or a foreign national is inadmissible for misrepresentation
  
  • (a) for directly or indirectly misrepresenting or withholding material facts relating to a relevant matter that induces or could induce an error in the administration of this Act;
    
    
  • (b) for being or having been sponsored by a person who is determined to be inadmissible for misrepresentation;
    
    
  • (c) on a final determination to vacate a decision to allow their claim for refugee protection or application for protection

There is no specific stage for this. Even during eligibility the officer finds that a document cannot be verified, or verifies from the source that it was not issued by the organization, it will trigger A40 and a procedural fairness letter will be granted. IRCC works with RCMP and CBSA to deter immigration fraud.

It is important to remember, and only material facts, which impact your CRS if found fraudulent will trigger misrepresentation.

However, this is a open forum, and everyone is open to write what they deem fit.

My job as a trained professional is not to go and argue with everyone or educate them, but to do my work with the best of my abilities, and contribute towards the community. Nothing more nothing less.

hi

I finally got an update today

" in queue to be reviewed for security checks "
" finalization of application would be the next step after security is reviewed and passed "
" Please contact us in approximately 1 month if you wish to have another update "

is this a sign i could get my PPR in one month's time? i dont want to raise my hopes too high.

This is definitely closer to the finish line. However, no time limit can be set. Most security checks happen within 1-2 months.

Have you contacted the cic ? What did you ask for in your email? And have you passed the 16 months ?

Hi legalfalcon,

I am EE-CEC inland applicant who received AOR in Apr 2016.

There are a lot of things I have been through, but long story short ;
We both were requested re-medical exams in Apr 2018 and May 2018, respectively. Medical status changed to 'passed' on 28 May 2018. Since then, we have been expecting PPR but there is no news. Given that PPR comes very soon after re-medical, I became concerned so contacted MP's office for status update.

Few days ago, they emailed me back with this information ;
- eligibility requirements met in Aug 2016
- medical results valid (we completed re-medical exams in May 2018)
- criminality verified for myself, expired for my wife (she'd been outland Aug 2015 - Jul 2016)
- security verification valid (CSIS involvement : Aug 2016- Dec 2016)

Even though MP said we do not need to take any further actions at this time and there is no additional document request from IRCC, I submitted 'new PCC' for my wife from my home country through IRCC web form.

Do you have any idea why my PPR is coming late? If expired criminality report was an issue, they might have requested it.
Can there be any problem?

I feel so helpless there is nothing we can do but waiting. I have been waiting for PR for 26 months, but still... I have to wait.

I believe I have answered your question. If not, have your requested GCMS notes, and has your eligibility been passed. Are you in SS?

Criminality is passed but security column is blank

Does having multiple addresses for the last 10 years delay your application process for PR?

No, has no impact on the processing.
