Most of the folks who have had requested GCMS have found their application is in 'QC inventory ' ...We need more DMs for this week.
What does the 'Quebec inventory' meaning?
Quebec Skilled Worker Federal Stage (After CSQ)
- Thread starter quebec100
- Start date
In my case, my file was in QC Inventory status on 10th March when it was moved from Sydney to Ottawa and in QC Pending status when file was opened for Medical Request on 14th Aug.
Is the 'Quebec inventory' an essential part for all applicants? Or does it mean a bad thing?
"Quebec Inventory" and " Quebec pending" are states of their process flow , its observed QC pending means some one is working on application whereas QC inventory it assumed to be stored in some virtual storage...
Guys I think it's really strange that they put October applicants aside but started to make decision on November applicants. There must be something going wrong with our files and it is definitely not our fault. Should we contact them as a group and ask for the real reason instead of just calling individually and being told "it's normal"? Anyone has any idea?
I think group contact would definitely be better than individual inquiries, but how to do that.... The best way would be to hire an immigration lawyer together, but I think it is too complicated and maybe time consuming since the holidays are approaching.
Yes I agree. That's why I post this here--to look for a efficient way to make them hear us.
This is totally not my issue to worry about, but perhaps we will be glad we didn't apply this year... Imagine the 2.5 months of application backlog from 2016 they start with after new year.... As we saw, the manpower handling the applications will be kept the same with a decreasing budget. Next year the DMs will stop at August-September applicants 
If it's just a normal delay I wouldn't worry about it. But it seems to make no sense about why this delay is happening. I'm now guessing that it's very likely that our file somehow got forgotten somewhere and they won't even realize it until we ring them a bell!This is totally not my issue to worry about, but perhaps we will be glad we didn't apply this year...

I had same feeling when people after me were getting MR and some how I was missed ( by long shot - 6 months). Wait until your file crosses 14 months mark.
But really your case is different. As you mentioned your file already left the "QC-inventory" this August but for us, at least me, criminality check is still going on (and it's almost certain that the file still in QC inventory). If I apply the same rule from you, it'll take at least another 3 months for a DM and it would exceed 14 months. So rather than wait until the 14 months mark, taking action now seems to be a better choice. Who knows if they are going to raise the time to 15, 16, 17 months?
