@Johnny just come you need email the minister of immigration and tell them that they are not keeping their promise of finishing applications received prior to dec 2016 by the end of last year. Ask how it's possible that background isn't started and it's been almost 16 months.
Minister@cic.gc.ca

Make your title stand out: e.g. "September 2016 applicant - 16 months No passport request and Background check not started."

Good luck

I checked my status today and they said background check have not been started
I’ve submitted my application since September of 2016 and background check still has not been started, this is the 16 Th month, I’m soo confused and Don’t know what to do, please any suggestions from the house will be appreciated. I sent them an email inquiring why background has not been started since last week but no response from them .

Happy new year everyone. I’ve been MIA trying to settle in. I see AVO has been slow recently but I don’t think there is any cause for alarm. It’s possible that many often officers are on vacation. I just wanted to stop bt to encourage everyone to keep faith. Your journey will come to an end before you know it. In the meantime, start preparing yourself for life over here so you don’t waste precious time after you move trying to figure out your plans. Have a great day guys.

Thank you @Ugoswife for the encouragement. When you said "vacation" it broke my heart I hope they're not it's so frustrating

Many officers probably took vacations during the holiday season but the office wasn't closed.

There are others who submitted their medicals earlier than you did any are also waiting to hear so don't panic. The visa office seems to be processing applications received in March.

It's almost like they Havnt started attending to anyone this year. I think they are just trying to finish up with folks from last year that are expecting their passports back.
