Hello @legalfalcon @caipsnotes and other forum experts :)

Have been following this forum since a long time and I really appreciate how supportive yourself and other forum members are.

Need your kind help in comprehending GCMS notes that we just have received

AOR: Jan 2020

The notes are as follows:

ASSESSMENT:
Eligibility: Passed
Security: Blank ............ Page 2 of GCMS notes has s 15(1) printed on top right corner.
HIRV: Blank
Criminality: Passed
Org Crime: Blank
Misrepresentation: Blank
Info Sharing: Complete
Other Reqs: Blank
Final: Blank.


Notes 3 (in short) states the above and that the PA meets all requirements and the case office seems to be satisfied and notes Ready to Finalize.

Need your help in understanding what exactly is meant by Ready to Finalize, what will be the next steps and how much time may be required for the final step.

Thanks a bunch and Regards.

Here ready to finalise means that the application is ready to be finalized given that other checks are done. To see how the notes look like see my previous post at #2,521

The security related details are always redacted.
Eligibility : Passed
Security : BLANK Security related details are always redacted and on this page at the top right corner you will see s 15 or 16. see https://bit.ly/36cduSY. This indicated that your security is either in progress or passed. See https://bit.ly/2S1rxlY
HIRV : BLANK Hazard, Impact, Risk, and Vulnerability.
Criminality : Passed
Org Crime :BLANK
Medical : Passed
Misrepresentation : BLANK
Info Sharing : **COMPLETE** Info sharing is done with IRCC partner agencies and countries, see https://bit.ly/30c1oWk System Error indicates either there was no results that were returned or there was a error in transmission, and this is normal and seen in many GCMS notes.
Other Reqs : BLANK
Final : BLANK Decision its yet to be made. After your application is finalised, this is show as approved.


Hope this helps!

Thank you so much for the quick reply @legalfalcon

Security is blank , so I am not sure if this is passed or in progress, is there a way to comprehend it from GCMS notes?

Note 1 states the following: adding here so that you are able to guide me :)

Note 1
Created on 2020/08/10
Label: EE Eligibility
Office: Centralize intake office
Text:

**OFFICER REVIEW** EE Eligibility passed. Based on documents submitted and assessment done by the case analyst/ Processing agent, I am reasonably satisfied that PA met the minimum requirements of CEC/FSW programs. PA meets the definition of province nominee and selection under PN Program.
I am satisfied that PA meets A11.2 assessment. PA appears to have ability to become economically established in the nominated province. I am satisfied that PA meets eligibility under EE-M1-PV2.


Note 2
Says nothing substantial in the text section

Note 3
Created on 2020/04/27

Text says ready to finalize.

But after reading your previous post I understand that the note which was created in Aug is the latest information on the file.

Can you throw some light on Note 1 and the next steps? and do you think is there a need to worry :)

Regards.

@legalfalcon Hi hope you are doing fine. On my GCMS notes I have everything passed except for security which is blank with s.15(1) on the top right corner. First time I got my notes I sent a webform to enquire about security and they told me that it was currently valid but no change since July even on the notes I received 10 days ago. Do you have any idea what stage I could be on? Thank you in advance. Regards.

After the security is passed, the application goes for a final review and it is passed. The security related details are always redacted from the GCMS notes. For most applicants the security usually passed within 3-5 weeks. Only if an applicant gets stuck in enhanced security screening, it can take up to 1-2 years.

To read on s15 see https://bit.ly/3jWUZWS

To read on security and the security screening manual see https://bit.ly/2H1gQh8

“valid” here indicates, that the documents required for the specific stage are “legal, not expired, and accepted by IRCC, see https://bit.ly/3nGcZa6

There is no need to worry. Given that your eligibility was passed on August 8, 2020, most likely your security should be in progress, or maybe even passed.

After the security is passed, your application will have a final review, where it will be seen that all documents are valid and not expired. If needed your medicals will be extended or you may be asked for re-med.

But since your eligibility is passed, you are all good and no need to worry.

After a few weeks, you can send another webform and enquire.

The COVID has thrown everything off track and I do not speculate as each application is unique. All that matters is that your application is progressing smoothly, and if it is clearing stages, then just be patient.

@legalfalcon, a question for someone being a PR and being within Canada. Can his parents travel to Canada on a visit visa and live with him (doing the 14 days quarantine) or do they have to also go through the approval stage which is newly ammended in Canada's travel restrictions? Do parents need to provide any document proving their son is a PR living in Canada?
