I have been saying this right from the start.I did not. I would like to have an answer to my IRCC request first. I do not find GCSM notes that useful unless you have an indication to be put under SS or something. Another thing is that they usually arrive in 30-40 days, which means that at the time they arrive they are 30-40 days outdated already... I wish there was at least some information disclosed in the account, but there is not, except useless progress bar with generic messages for everybody.
There has to be some way were they can provide proper updates every month to the applicants. After every 30 days, they send updates that your application being process now for eligibility and the next month, eligibility has been met, then next update, security checks have been initiated etc.
The IRCC agent told me my estimated completion date has been pushed to June 11, 2019. Now had I not called the call centre, I would have never known this. I doubt this will even be mentioned in the GCMS notes. However, my online account still shows completion date as May 2, 2019 Which shows the status bar is another useless addition.
Getting proper updates like these will make our life so much easier and stress free. We don't have to order GCMS notes or keep bombarding the IRCC call centre for updates. Since we know our files are moving and we get proper updates. Even if our applications are delayed, we have nothing to worry since we can expect an update on why the delay etc.
