Hi everyone,

My timeline is as below:
  • 5 September 2019 - Applied for PR
  • 13 December 2019 - Received AOR
  • 24 December 2019 - Received Application Update E-mail (after which I could link my application to online account)
  • 6 September 2020 - Received request for Police Clearance Certificate (exactly after 1 year of application submission, may be it's just a co-incidence)
  • 8 September 2020 - Gave finger prints for RCMP PCC
  • 6 October 2020 - Mailed PCC from UK as I have lived there in the past
  • 16 December 2020 - Received a letter through email (not through portal) that I meet the eligibility requirements for PR
  • Estimated completion date is 5 May 2021
Is anyone in similar situation as I am? It's only 4 months till the estimated completion date but I have not heard anything about my medical or interview. I have applied for GCMS notes twice once in October and then in December but have not received anything.

Can anyone advise me on where I should request GCMS notes? What's the best place? Someone mentioned that they've ordered theirs from CBSA instead of the IRCC since they're more detailed?

You can apply using this link. CBSA notes will have all the information related to your refugee claim whereas IRCC notes will only have the information regarding your PR application, this is my experience.

Many thanks for the response. Have you tried ordering CBSA notes before and were they useful in making you understand how far you are in the process?

Yes, I ordered both but only after applying for the PR. So, the CBSA notes were not as such relevant for me as I had already received the decision on my refugee claim.

Oh so basically CBSA notes are only useful during the refugee claim, however, GCMS notes from IRCC are applicable for the PR process specifically. But what's the difference between the 2 interms of the information they can tell you?

The notes from IRCC will have the information related to your PR application. Whereas the notes from CBSA will have the additional information which includes all the previous visa applications to Canada (if any), any form submitted through out your refugee claim period, etc.
