Dear Forum Members,

I'm in a fix with my GCMS notes that I just received. My Estimated remaining processing time is 48 Day(s). I'm perplexed on the number of pages which is 157 and people here are posting their notes excerpts as if they received 2 pages. Well, the real problem comes in when I see "obolete" in front of my IELTS and Work Experience in some places...also that the Universities (spouse & mine are unrecognized).

Our IELTS have not expired, my work experience is rock solid and can be verified, our unis are of international standing/ECA done.

Any help would be great!

Cant copy info here since the getscms guys sent me a scan/pic pdf file...

All,

My AOR is Oct 7. I have not received any updates whatsoever, no ghost updates or anything else? I am a little panicky, unsure what is going on. I tried multiple times to call the agents, but could never get any answers.
My score is 457. IELTS is 8.5 cumulative. Citizenship is India and country of residence is USA.
Below is what I see as of today. The tracker shows 23 days remaining:

they sure seem to be taking their sweet time but don't see any reason to be all worked up...it seems to have progressed alright...having said that...I think you should've received a request for your biometrics...better put in an email to them...they forgot to send me my letter best

My stats are similar to yours and my AOR is Oct 12. My file is in Montreal VO and i'm pretty sure yours as well based on your file status. This is pretty normal with files chilling at Montreal. No need to panic.

Don't worry about Obsolete appearing. It's there in everybody's notes.
Look at the following:

Activity 1-5
Read the NOTES section (last 4 pages)

Thanks! This is reassuring!
Keeping my fingers crossed!

I'm still waiting on the golden email. How long does it normally take to get the mail after approval?

P.S. I called CIC on Tuesday and was told that my application was approved from March 4th.

I think you should expect it this coming Monday. All the best xx

U share it here either

 

[Serenasix]

does the bar in the online account mean anything? or is it just the count down to the average 6 months?

Will call CIC Monday morning, thank you. Although I get the feeling there will be quite a few PPRs sent through on Monday/Tuesday, same happened this last Monday.

 

[UKDreamer]

I'm in the same boat as you. Application approved on March 9th and no PPR email yet.
When I spoke to the CIC agent she said there's no time frame for when they can send it through and just to keep checking emails.

Other threads have said 10 days others have waited 5-8 weeks!

Did you get a ghost update before the approval??

Thanks for your answer in advance

Yeah I did.
I got one on 26th Feb, then got another on 9th March (which is when the CIC agent told me it had been approved)
