I was going into the 48th Highlander but I switched to Toronto Scots even tho its slightly further for me, I really hope your application is much smoother than mine, but honestly we may end up meeting since you'll also be doing your BMQ at Fort York or Moss Park hoping your application takes...

I'm done with the Pre sec as I sent the paperwork in Sept 2023 and I got the results back in January 2024, when I was told that it was completed, I was booked for my interview and medical for Feb 1st 2024, and I got my medical cleared on the 7th so now I believe I'm on the Reliability Screening...

Hey mate! I was in a similar situation, not in contact with my father and he lives outside Canada. I put him on my Pre Security Clearance but I had a conversation with my mother that she's my legal guardian. When I had my interview, I did let the Captain who did my interview that I was estranged...

You are 100% right about that no doubt at all! In his footsteps, I meant to go into Armoured as I'll be the 4th generation in the army and 3rd in Combat Arms, but I greatly appreciate your kind words! :)

Congratulations! Your application went pretty fast from the Medical to Enrollment. Would recommend checking out Hansol's Guide to BMQ on the site, you can google it and it should come up! It is from 2006 but from what I've read and heard it still applies to BMQ. I'm in a dilemma as I'm...

Congratulations!

Totally agree with you! every two to three weeks and one call/email! For me last communication was that the Background check has to come back favourable before enrollment so I'm gonna check again if I don't hear back by mid march probably.

Congrats! And yeah trusting the process is something I will do more religiously from now

Same for me! I became a Citizen on the 11th of January but afiak it all depends on how much time you've been in Canada, and how much you've been out of Canada as well as other foreign implications (Family, Citizenship, property etc) Absolutely, you couldn't have said it any better! For me, the...

Oh I get it hahaha! I submitted everything as fast as possible and was so anxious when I didn't hear back for weeks! Hopefully, all goes well with the medical forms and bloodtests, and you get to the next part of the process soon!

That is wonderful, not too long to hear back hopefully! Yeah, I heard back from my file manager who said its a wait for the background check to come back before enrolment. I’ve heard mix things about the background check so it may take anywhere from a month to three let’s see how it goes haha

It will be okay and you’ll get an update soon! (If it applies to you I’ve heard on the thread that PR applications are to begin some pilot program with IRCC for faster processing starting sometime in Feb) The army is a lot of hurry up and wait, don’t lose hope, and keep working on yourself until...

Just a quick update on my end! Medical was approved by the RMO and now file will be sent to Ottawa for the background check!

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...

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.

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!

For sure, I've been waiting since 2018 to apply but met the requirements last year so decided to get some personal stuff out of the way and apply as soon as possible. Yeah for Reg Force, the Eval is done during BMQ. Lets see I hope that the medical and interview go smoothly and I get done with...

I'm going for Infanteer (PRes). I'm in the same boat honestly lol I literally check my portal, mail and spam if there are any updates but it's been the same since Sept 12th when I did my Force Eval so I'm just hoping for the best. I hope you get your offer soon and are good to go for enrollment...

Honestly, it depends. Assuming you've lived in Canada for at least 10 years or since before you turned 16 (whichever comes first), and haven't left for any significant length of time, it shouldn't take too long but it may vary from case to case, in my circumstance I filled out the forms when I...
