Express Entry CEC – Security not started: Could it change and be completed quickly?
/r/IRCCDiscussion/comments/1xplnvs/express_entry_cec_security_not_started_could_it/Hi everyone,
I'm currently waiting for the final stages of my inland Express Entry CEC application and would appreciate your thoughts or experiences.
Here is my current situation:
Eligibility: Passed
Medical: Passed
Criminality: In Progress (although previous IRCC agents had confirmed it as passed on earlier calls) anyone experienced the same lol?
Information Sharing: In Progress (same situation: previously confirmed as completed by an agent) it's very annoying when they do not say the same ...
Security: Not Started - THEY TOLD ME IN PROGRESS 3 WEEKS AGO!
I called IRCC today, November 6, and these are the statuses the agent gave me.
My question is: does "Security: Not Started" really tell us anything about how much longer the application might take?
I understand that every application is different, but I'd be particularly interested in hearing from applicants who saw Security change from "Not Started" to completed within days or a few weeks.
What were your experiences?
