nothing to worry about really considering you are barely 9 weeks in. However, if you feel like you want to know what's happening with your application, apply for gcms notes. You'll get it in the next 30 days.

This does not state anything. Instead consider requesting GCMS notes, they will tell you the stage your application is at.

The MyCIC status will remain as is until you get the PPR.

Hello @legalfalcon

I received another set of GCMS earlier today and there has been no activity on my account since March where the last comment by the analyst was a review on my R75 minimum requirement. The GCMS received today is exactly the same as the one I applied in April which means they're just sitting on the application since March...

Any suggestions? My AOR is 7th Feb..thanks

Below is the comment that was last updated in March and it has been the same since then

The only concerns is about our one year of continuous work experience. Until this is reviewed, your file will not move ahead. Since I am not privy to your application, can't comment more.

Thanks for the reply @legalfalcon ....I have explained this in my LOE that my employer is not ready to issue a detailed duty letter and therefore I have provided a self attested duty letter. Even if they remove this experience I have enough points and experience to qualify for the program as I have experience in 3 different NOCs including this one and stand at 77 points. The only problem is that I had to put something in the primary NOC and therefore I put the experience of the organisation in question as the primary one. If they can remove it then I'm ok with that as well provided they entertain any such request at this stage. Please advice.

I can email you my notes and you can have a look and advice...really need an expert advice here...thanks once again

301 days since Aor. I am FSW-O applicant.

How do I know if I am really in security screening?
Do you have any idea why and where my file might be stuck and what are the chances of rejection at this stage?

Many Thanks

Hi @legalfalcon I have written to them today as my organisation is not ready to issue a duty letter as per my need and this has already been mentioned in the LOE.

Can the primary NOC be changed at this stage as I have 3 different NOCs and the reason I put the org in question in primary because I had to put something there.

Please advise. Also, is there a way I can show you my GCMS notes?

Thank you so much, I will jist wait then
