I shall be very much thankful if an immigration expert advise me on the following.

An officer (BUFFALO, telephone service) mentioned that it will take a minimum 8
months for the background check. (All the other necessary documentation has already
been submitted to the Buffalo office.)

However, the immigration experts in this group mention that there is no time frame
for the security check. That is, it may take few weeks or many months.

I shall be very much thankful if someone kindly let me know whether the procedure for
background checkes has been changed recently and also whether a minimum time for the
check has been introduced.

Sincerely

Background/security check is conducted by Canadian security agencies, independently
from the immigration authorities, with and/or without a cooperation of proper
agencies and authorities in all countries you have resided for 6 months or more. This
tasks is to find out if you are or were at any time involved in any criminal
activity, organized crime, espionage, terrorism, war crimes, crimes against humanity
or any other activity that may pose a threat to the security of Canada and Canadians
and if you are or were a part of or working for any government or organization
involved in war crimes, human rights abuse and crimes against humanity.

There is no minimum or maximum time for background/security check to be done.
Depending on your nationality, background and countries you have resided in this
process may take from few months to well over a year to conclude.
