Hi all!
I've been following this thread for a few months; only now just made an account. I was wondering if anyone could answer a few questions(?)...some of which might sound extremely silly, but I just want to be sure on a few things.

1. When Ghost Updates are referred to, does that mean you get an email about a profile update but nothing major has changed? Or is it a change on your profile without an email?

2. I received my AOR 5 months ago today (22nd April). Would it be suitable to request GCMC notes at this point, or is it too early?

3. Despite being in the "Background check" stage; my profile reads "Last update: May 13th" -- is this normal? Should I be concerned at the length of time since the last update?...I read on this thread that this is common?

4. Finally, is there anything I should be checking other than just logging into my profile? I.e. Other sites for time updates/other forums etc.

Thank you so much! (And sorry for the long post!!)

AOR: 26th April,2021.

Medical and Biometric completed : 13th May,2021.

Now waiting for COPR portal.....

This is spoiling life of people who risked and came here to build their own careers.

Sometimes I feel depressed why are they forecasting 400K numbers on yearly basis if they dont have capacity to process.

I'm in the same boat! However, the processing time did state 6 months when I applied. So we have one more month until we should start to look into things more seriously :)

Hi I applied from Vancouver,

Does this mean this will be my VO ? I do not have GCMC notes.

AOR : 27 April 2021
No my friend, you have to call them to ask your VO or apply for GCMS notes, I doubt these days if they will answer your questions as they are dealing with the Afghanistan refugee issue, or you can also raise a webform to ask, that will only take five business days to get a reply.

@legalfalcon, hi I have another question, what if I m travelling in my home country and the portal email arrived? What should I do then?
You have 2 options:

1. Inform IRCC that you are not in Canada and ask them to send you a PPR, which will take time and depends on how long you will be outside Canada.

2. Revert back when you are back in Canada.
