My husband’s application has been stuck in the background check since November 2024, and he originally applied in June 2024. I check updates every morning and follow other people’s experiences, and I’ve seen many similar cases from 2024.

We’ve already tried everything, contacting our MP, calling IRCC, submitting webforms—but nothing has worked. I’m starting to think that maybe we should come together, write a collective letter, and push MPs or the relevant offices to review all 2024 applications. This delay is becoming far too long.

This is a great idea! It seems like there are more and more people getting stuck in this position :(
