Hey @legalfalcon. How you doing?

I need to clarify something.

My last gcms notes were raised on 1st September. It mentions “letter sent and print queue changed to Delhi” on the 9th of August. And “Secondary office assigned Delhi” on 11th of August. And nothing after that. So shouldn’t Delhi be sending me an email after they’ve been assigned my case? And hence there should be an activity after the 11th. But, there isn’t any. 11th August is the last activity.

I called them again yesterday to clear the confusion. He said Ottawa had instructed Delhi to send the email. They don’t know whether or not delhi has sent it. He said when I called last week they had asked Delhi for clarification but haven’t received a response. They have 30 days to respond. Asked me to call back after 15 days.

My last notes were generated on 1st September. If Delhi had sent me the email before the 1st of September would it be mentioned in the notes?
@M.Hussain,

Did u get the Visa yet? If yes, when?
My case is in same situation as yours.
I m awaiting for visa since past 5 months (Sept 6, 2017) on approved application. I have posted details of my application in this thread on page 66-67.
My Visa validity date as per GCMS is approaching. 17 April 2018.
Does this mean I have to reapply if no reply/email from New Delhi visa office?

Regards,
Diwakar

The 6 months processing time starts from the day when the R10 is passed. I would not be concerned at this stage. You have to be patient.

The main stage is eligibility. To know if you have passed it, you can order GCMS notes or wait it out.

Hi Legal Falcon I am trying to fill in consent form to order GCMS notes from getgcms. What do I need to fill in under designated individual's contact information. Business or Organization name?

No need to fill anything. When you place an order, you will be directed to the information page where you will fill in the application information and submit. A pre-filled consent form will be sent to you. All you have to do is sign, scan and send it back.

I just paid and got the email. I included my spouse information as well. Should my spouse sign too?

If that is the case, I might have to wait until my wife's signature is obtained. That cannot be until tomorrow. The date for which the application is signed to is 16th Feb. But, the date on the application is 15th feb. will that be a problem?

If your spouse is added to the application your spouse will have to sign the consent form. If the consent form is not signed your spouse's information will be retracted.

The consent form is valid for 30 days from he date it is generated. So you can sign send the form within 30 days.

Hi Legal Falcon, the day (feb 16) after I submitted my GCMS note.. the document status changed from ' we are reviewing the documents you provided' to 'We do not need any additional documents'. Is this a change that is expected? Or is it because they changed it irrespective of GCMS notes?
