Well they know how many 2019 and 2020 applicants are there and then 2021 applicants continue to increase. So before 2020 gets squeezed more they need to clear out alot of them and bring them down to a certain number . You will see 2019 processed quicker next year first quarter.

They marked my file non routine right after the test and interview but I dont remember I have to go through many gcms notes again to figure it out . Now looking at gcms notes again gives me headaches lol
I see, thanks a lot for your help. I really appreciate it.

I will request for my notes, Im guessing its still a routine app, because when I called in June 2021, they told me that there is nothing that is showing that this is non-routine.

Are they done with processing the first quarter 2020 applicants then? I will apply for the notes, but Im wondering if my applications got lost somewhere (that maybe an officer left the department or something and forgot to hand it to the next person). I really have no clue..

Not a problem.

I'm not sure but the tracker might tell u more about the trend. I think they are done processing first quarter of 2020 and now in the 2nd quarter . If you're June 2020 you might have to wait longer. It's really a luck game now.

I think you're waiting for oath now. They just forgot to press the DM button. If they needed anything from you, they would let you know soon after the test.
In any case, it looks like you are from the "low priority group" like me, chs, and a lot of other guys who wait for more than 4 months after the test for oath invite (UPs, seniours, etc. are from "high priority group"). If they can find you in their system (judging from the phone call), your application isn't lost. Try to relax and move on. You'll receive your oath invite soon enough...

Thanks a lot, I'm a March 2020 applicant, so maybe I have to wait until next year. But it's ok, I guess I will just wait, nothing much can be done...I wish this whole process is a bit more transparent

Thanks a lot, that's very comforting:) have you seen cases of this happening (them forgetting to press the DM button, but the applicant was in the queue for oath)? it seems like they don't need anything from my side, I hope they put me in the queue and haven't forgotten about me :) thanks again, that's true, I should relax a bit , this will eventually be figured out :)

Thanks, I appreciate it. Yah, the dates are completely off. They should really invest in automating their pipeline a bit :)

I guess I will just try to get on with life in the meanwhile ....

They are clearing second quarter 2020 applicants and processing 2021 I think . Ordering Gcms notes has no effect on the processing of your app. It was clearly mentioned under.officers notes that my app is non routine because they love me very much.
Hi I think we might be in the same boat.. I missed one trip in my physical calculation (potentially 2 days short from 1095) and I have completed my test even. I was wondering if you reported to them regarding the missing trips or they messaged you regarding this or you simply found this out through GCMS note? How long does it take for you to get the note after your request if you mind sharing that?

Your response is gratefully appreciated!

Ooooh man. I'm 5 days short. I figured out after I got my i94. They didn't ask me anything they even passed one of my residence eligibility. I just did the calculation again for the same eligibility period and sent then the physical presence explaining everything adding missing trips with i94 copy attached. Still haven't heard anything from them. Dont even know if they got the document .

Oh gosh, did you resubmit a new application and withdraw the current one? How does it work?

Alot of members suggested to withdraw and put a new one . I did the latter but I dont know how it works since now my current application is non routine which could take 3 to 4 years . The new one still waiting for AOR . It's your call what you want to do.

Thank you for the hopeful message haha!
I'm going on vacation within Canada in mid October and I'm wondering whether to bring my laptop with me just in case. Can we do oath ceremony on a tablet?
