PR here as well, but my application is for the Army Reserves. In the same boat honestly there’s been no communication since my security check documentation submission in September. I’ve been told it takes up to 18 months for foreign applicants. I hope it processes faster and best of luck friend!
Hey, Just submitted my reliability Screening Docs as well, was also told clearance could take up to 2 years. But lets hope for the Best!
Yep 18 to 24 months is what is being told. I’m supposed to do my citizenship ceremony on the 11th, and I hope that may process it faster but someone on reddit said it still may take time so just hoping for the best now honestly.
Hey Congrats man, But still due to being a Naturalized Citizen, CSIS will run the reliability screening not sure which level but, from what i heard it usually takes 4-5 to complete the Information check if you don't have extensive travel history or Foreign assets and a clean criminal background from your native country.
I think all PRs applicants agree that 4-5 months sound way better than 2 years. I also was told that each case is different depending on travel history, where did you complete your eduction or what family ties you have outside of Canada.
Absolutely but like I’ve been here since I was 15 ( 8 years in Feb), travelled for less than 3 weeks to the USA in 2018, and 2019 and Completed Education here. My father lives abroad but we're no contact so Idk how will that turn out. Hoping for the best honestly, I really do hope that all other PRs applications process faster, it would be so nice to see many people from here and reddit one day in uniform
@gotbhp Thanks for this timeline. I am a couple months behind you also applying through Vancouver. The holidays obviously slowed things down but I have interview and medical next week. This post may not be for this thread but could you shed some light on the interview questions? Anything noteworthy or unexpected? I haven't found any recent CO interview tips or prep in any threads. Thanks in advance! And good luck at BMOQ!
@bolukbas : Any update about reliability screening? Have already completed or still going on?
They stopped processing it because I am a Turkish-Canadian dual citizen and CAF wants proof from me that I am exempt from Turkish mandatory military service. I am in the process of trying to get that
Okay...
MOST: January 11th (Passed).
Not yet, I was told that reliability screening would have to be completed before the interview and medical.
Hi Recapllic,
where can i find more information on this update?
I haven't seen anything online. It was only what the Recruiting Officer told me.
