Today I called IRCC helpline to know about my pr processing. Someone told that my application is in background checking stage. Could anyone plz help to know what is background checking n how long it could take? Plz help
Criminality check (2 to 12 months )+ security check ( 2 to 12 months )= background check 2 to one year and maybe more depend on your travel history, depending on your nationalty and on your employment history

Security starts right after you get your eligibility. Correct? What do you mean by country you come from or nationality? and employment history? What are the countries take up more time ? Also what type of employment cause the delay? Thanks.

Yes mostly security starts after eligibility and criminality before eligibility.if you are from war zone countries so its take more time and if you are highly educated then they will ask for your resume and they will check your job description for each employer so it's taking time

This is crazy. I’m not from war zone but my husband is who is still back home. so likelihood of our security getting delayed is very high? Thank you for your answers.
