Can anyone help me decipher "INTEGRATED SEARCH (FOSS/GCMS): No trace for all other than present application)"

Is this in context of the Work Experience?

What is it exactly?

It means they don’t have any records of visas, applications or visits to Canada other than your current application. They just search to check if you have any past records with ircc or not.

Nothing to worry.

FOSS is the older version of the system that CIC was using. Later they replaced it with GCMS (Global Case Management System)
It includes the info for all of the applications that you made with CIC. So, basically they checked to see if they have any record for you in their systems or not.

So, with this, I hope I can pass the course with legendary @R.Tequila

Lololol you're the real deal!

9 months and 1 day. Maddening

S.19 refers to the section about releasing dependents info. It seems to me you included your dependents approval alongside your ATI request, that is why they checked it against that section but didn't redact! How about your info sharing?

You mean under Assessments (Second page)?

It is 'complete'

Wow, every attempt I make to find a flaw in my application, you guys clear it off...

What am I supposed to do

Hi, I am in the same situation: my wife applied to CEC she is working in Ontario and I am working remotely for Quebec company, both of us live in Ontario. I have landing interview scheduled , I was wondering if you are currently working remotely for the same Quebec company? Do the VO asked you in the landing interview anything about your job? Thanks in advance for your remarks

Hello,

I was not scheduled for landing interview. Got PPR - sent passport - waiting for COPR. Once I receive passport I will do landing anywhere near ON province.

Your case, they don't care where you work all they care is resident of which province. Carry proof of residence(Driving licensee or mails) from Ontario which corresponds to where you are filing your taxes.

Yes, I am still working for Quebec employer remotely from Toronto.

Yeah, then another possible flaw got cleared! It's so weird how there is no problem with your application, yet they don't start your security. It seems the officer completely forgot about your case! Was there any due date in your notes?

means you don't have any previous applications in the Canadian system

 

[phd208]

Nooo, nothing. We hit our 9 months today Hopefully it will come soon how are you doing? How does having ppr feel? :-D

@Ronja5200, I remember you ordered GCMS notes a few times. Did you ever find the reason for this wait?

Good news everyone. Quick re-cap. June AOR, FSW-Inland. File approved in November at Montreal office. No movement in my file after that at all.

I phoned IRCC on 5th March to ask for updates. They confirmed that file was approved and was not touched since November.

I (cheekily) e-mailed IRCC.PRA-RVPR.IRCC@cic.gc.ca on 18th March requesting for an interview, using the details of my COPR that was on my GCMS information. I did not have any formal communication of approval at this stage.

On 19th March (today), I phoned IRCC again. Agent was genuinely shocked that my file was approved in November. He noted that there was some movement in my file in the last couple of weeks since my last phone call to IRCC.

Suddenly, I received a landing interview letter today (19th March) from Etobicoke. The interview is next week.

Thanks for all the advice guys. Hoping for the best for everyone else waiting.

If you know that your file is approved, call the IRCC office by phone until you are able to speak to an agent. I think that is the best way to communicate with them after the file is approved. Call them once every two weeks or so. Raising a CSE at the post-approval stage seems to be ineffective.

Also, my online account still does not show any updates whatsoever.

@wiji, congrats and thanks for sharing!

Just one question: did you find out your file had been approved by calling or via notes?
