Hi, I received PAL today, how long does it take to receive portal 1? Thanks VO: Etobicoke
Could be from 1 week to 3 months but there is no exact timeline for that . Order your GCMS notes and see on what stage is your application.
Oh ok thanks. I am located in Calgary. I thought it anyway directs to EST timezoned IRCC office
Question: why would you suggest ordering GCMS at this stage? If one got PAL today, other than what PAL actually means, getting PAL means file has reached and progressed at certain stage in processing an application, sometimes being close to making decisions, though you already know every file differs and getting decision on file can vary.. so why order GCMS notes now? Typically, getting GCMS is suggested when there is no updates in 4 to 5 months on file.. Would rather suggest just calling IRCC and asking for status check on assessments (like eligibility, infosharing, criminality, sec, etc..).
Well there is no 100% guarantee that PAL means eligibility is passed . Even if eligibility is passed there maybe Criminality, security or info sharing steps which haven’t yet started. Calling IRCC call center agents don’t give you accurate information. They can only give you limited information. It’s always good to order note’s because it doesn’t put any negative impact. If you call every day to IRCC , call centre will give you information which change every day . Some agents give contracting information. FYI you can order notes at any stage . Doesn’t matter even you got AOR yesterday or your file is processing from last 2 years.
Hi Friends,
My husband and I are on open work permit in Canada. My husband got OINP nomination with work permit support letter. Our open work permit is expiring on June 2023. With OINP work permit support letter, my husband can apply for close work permit. So my question is what about my work permit then? Will it be close work permit or open work permit? Which one I will get when I will apply for work permit on my husband's work permit?

I myself, the day after got PAL called agents and they told me that everything passed but security not started! So I ordered 2 GCMS note. one from CBSA and other from IRCC. The notes from officers on my GCMS note confirmed that my application is on final stages for making decision. So I can sit back and relax and waiting for final decision. So ordering GCMS note is highly recommended no matter on which stage your application is.
Hii I got portal 2 on 26 July I submitted photo on 27 July I haven’t got my ecopr . Should I send them a email ?
I know one can order GCMS notes at any stage but honestly don't you think it is kind of useless and waste of time if you order it at a stage when it is really not necessary? like for instance, member got PAL today, you suggest ordering GCMS notes?
You're great contributor and don't get me wrong but IMO, I do not agree that is it always good to order GCMS notes.. of course there is no negative impact, but there is no meaningful purpose to it *unless* there is no movement on a file for prolonged period of time say for 4+ months or simply if one wants to just know what GCMS notes says on file.
Also, I don't why would you think someone would be calling IRCC every day for app status check - doesn't make any sense. Calling IRCC once a month is ok to know file status, ideally applicant should be interested in knowing what are the assessment in given stream of application, and whether those assessment passed or not started etc. GCMS certainly has more information, but if someone today gets PAL and then asks whats next or how soon portal can come, obviously no one can predict that but suggesting on ordering GCMS to know the status on file just doesn't really justify the need for ordering one.
