Bro I suppose the rash will not be as hard and annoying as the one that I have faced :). That is a story for some other time. Everyone who is stuck in security screening as his own story to tell.
Oh hell yeah man, I feel ya and every other person who is currently going through security screening. I'm really happy that you're through it and hoping that others like myself will also get through this pain really soon :)

Thanks for your reply. My GCMS notes read exactly like this, I just ordered CBSA to be sure about it. These blanks realy make you feel miserable!

Guys I ordered the GCMS notes I don't have "security screening" on my notes, but I do have the activity 1 to 4 are all blank. What does that mean? How do I know if I'm stuck in SS or not?

It’s most likely indicating that you might be under SS.. to be certain order CBSA notes this provides details about the blank activities

I called the CIC today and they told my application has been on additional review. I already passed the eligibility, criminality, medical and info sharing. Now I've been stuck in Security check since Aug 9 2018.

I am going to assume I am on the same boat as you are as our timelines are the same. So June..... this means June 2019 Remed, MAYBE. Thats a bummer...
Hey bud, got my CBSA notes last night. According to it, my file was sent to CBSA on 14/03/18 and they only started working on it from 25/06/18. Now the million dollar question here is that how long they'll take to finalise it :(

Does your CBSA notes match those blanks in GCMS? Have you tried to call CIC?

Yeah they do mate except CBSA ones has all the details. But it's not really helpful as it only says that SS is in progress by CBSA. No I didn't call cic, was thinking of calling but not sure if it'll be of any help.

does it say what type of SS you are in? that may give you a clue how long it could last...
