All applicants have 4 security screening. So you are not in the enhanced security screening. You will have another activity of security and then you should be cleared.
Hi Legalfalcon,
What do you mean by enhanced security screening?
I don't have any military or government service, and I have 3 security screening entries so far. Security screening started on July 19th.

Hello @legalfalcon

I received my GCMS notes and I have a similar question. From the above correspondence, what I understand is I am not in security screening (the long, dreadful one) but somehow my security screening requested in August and stalled at some point in the process.

Is your security, medicals, and eligibility passed?

This is where the file gets stuck for a few months. Since it Is not disclosed why this happens, no one knows. But there is a correlation between the country of origin and the enhanced BGC.

Not needed when you apply. But IRCC can ask.

Hi!!! I needed some clarification on the consent form to be filled for the GCMS notes. It says separate consent form to be filled for each individual above 18 yrs age in your file.
Now the consenet form has a section B which asks for spouse name and signature. So is this enough or I need to fill another consent form for my wife where her name/signature comes in Section A.

You only need one consent from for spouse, PA and any dependents. PA - Section A, spouse - Section B, and dependents Section D.

Hi @legalfalcon.

My AOR is june 10 and I have been on IP1 since july 7. I got my gcms note on september 28 and i noticed my criminality check hadn't been done. Am in the London VO whatsapp chat group and everyone there is telling me that is really weird and that my criminality should have been done in CIO. Every other person in my chat group who posted snippets of the gcms note showed that their criminality was done at CIO yet mine is not the case. Most people in my AOR are either in NA or IP2 status and yet am still in IP1. It really baffles me. My due date was October 6 and till today i haven't seen any updates.

Just wanted to find out if anyone is in a similar place as me or if anyone has had their they criminality done in their VO rather than CIO or better yet just help make sense of my situation. Thanks
