Hello,
To give you a bit of a background. I got my Canadian citizenship last year and I applied in August for Mar Tech. I passed the CFAT and Medical in September. I have been told that my interview will be scheduled after I pass the security clearance. I have also been told that because I haven't lived in Canada for the past 10 years, this process could take up to two years. I have been a bit proactive and provided criminal records from all the countries I have lived in, hoping that the process would go smoother. My references have been contacted.
Questions:
Security Clearance: is/was there anyone in a similar situation as me?(fresh Canadian looking to join the CAF). could this really take that long, or even longer?
Application Status: currently my application status is "quality control"; anyone knows what this means? it's been like this for the past 7 months.
Do you think that the current COVID situation will add even more processing time?
Thanks!
Sorry if i did not post my question under the right section.
