I have ordered GCMS Notes in late October and got them in Nov. Does ordering GCMS notes affects the status ? Kindly suggest
Hi the change that you saw in your additional documents section. I saw that change on 11 November. I didnt order any GCMS notes. Its totally normal. Lot of people see that change. GCMS wont trigger anything I guess.

NDVO doesn't follow any sequence.They way they have started putting everyone in IP2, it seems PPR is a long wait. Till last month IP2 means PPR in next few hours or days. But since November last week situation has changed drastically. Now, no one can predict days to PPR after IP2.
Does anybody have an idea of what exactly happens after IP2? Are there any rejections reported post IP2?

Quite a question...
Compact Ans : "Officer review"

Actually It's an update that you will see when your file is ready for the final officer review.
Ready means:
1. medical was passed *OR* if medial was deferred/additional/remedical report is available and vetted for final presentation.

2. Criminality was passed *OR* additional PCC was asked/renewed/review was there on PCC which is now ready for final presentation.

3. Eligibility was passed *OR* All pending reports, investigations, reviews regarding eligibility are ready for final presentation.

4. Integrated Security search to match your passport/face/name/details with the security database was done and report is ready or will be done now *OR* for security screening (only) candidates, the report is ready for final presentation.

Hope this clears all your doubts

Got my passport back today with stamped immigrant visa!

One final question.. Visa does not have my photo on it, the copr document provided though does have my photo.. All good right? When I've traveled to other countries in the past, I've had visas with photos hence the confusion.

Thanks saurabh ji for the detailed answer, I was wondering why it takes for some people to get ppr after ip2, a couple of hours to a few days and months for few applicants especially when the file is with local VO's?

I think that local visa offices almost all of them have a shortage of staff. There are visa officers countable on fingers also there are 1-2 CBSA officers. These handful of people have to look into travel, students, sponsor spousal, sponsor parent, permits etc etc ... So they do this lot wise. One by one ... So once they issue ppr for pr on a day... Some might have got Ip2 the same day.. or a day before or 15 days back.. when they last sat on pr visas.

Please check your uploaded documents list and see if there is any new document requested by them. If not they might request in couple of days. Also, if its changed due to GCMS then it surely will change back to "We do not need additional documents". Also, if you have uploaded any documents on their request and its been a while, you can mail them again about this issue. All the best!
