No updates since IP1. I heard if you order GCMS it helps your application. Is it true? Does anyone have any experience?
Hey is this true?

I don't know. I ready in the forum few people mentioned this and i was wondering if i should order GCMS or not sinnce it's been 3 months after IP1 and no movement.
You can order gcms. It provides good info about your status. But it won't move your application forward. People who say this are usually affiliated with 3rd party gcms ordering websites.

thats bull crp.. if this was case everyone would be doing same.. now I can tell u abt this process what happens in background ... when you ask for gcms notes.. it goes to a diff cell all together, not your officer not your case analysts, they have no freaking idea about your order... and the people from that cell extract every single entry done in system and send across...if you computer science guy then imagine like this.. what you get its basically unix log of a unix program.. getting logs have nothing to with real execution

Thanks. Makes sense. That is why i was not ordering and i don't think i would order. I just hope they will start my background check IP2 soon.

AOR June 3, Medical Passed on June 14 and IP1 June 15. Just spoke to an agent. My visa office is Ottawa. Eligibility is met and background check not started yet. She told me my application is in line to be processed within the 6 months timeline.

I received a ghost update exactly 5 days ago now, but there have been no changes, emails, etc. Any thoughts on what it might could've been? CEC-Inland, case is being processed in Ottawa.

You should call IRCC to know what that update is about. Ghost updates have different meanings for different cases. Personally, I have two ghost updates but I haven't got the PPR yet.

It might take a while to receive an email or update on your profile.
Not comparable, but for my TRV application, it took more than a week to get PPR email after a ghost update on my profile.
I hope you get what you are waiting for, this week :)

Thanks, I'll see how long my patience will hold... I may give them a call before the end of this week if I don't receive any news ;)

I have called CIC twice already.. once on 31st July and once on 15th August.

I got the same update on both occasions :-
1. Eligibility met.
2. Background check not started.
3. VO: Ottawa

Already applied for GCMS notes on 23rd August.

However, I am running out of patience again. You guys think it would be justified to cal them again to inquire about the status, or would I be calling too often?
