Hello all,

Can someone please help me in this situation. My friend got an email from IRCC saying that application is approved and is asking for details ( name,uci,email, entry date, are you currently inside or outside canada).

Currently, my friend is in India, he recieved email on March 17, 2023, will be returning to Canada on March 23, 2023.

Should he respond back to the email saying that he is outside canada and returning on March 23 or should he reply once he lands Canada?

What would be the best way for such situation?


(P.S This is May 7, 2023 applicatioln submitted under IG Stream)

I would advise him to respond to the email upon return to Canada. Saying you're outside Canada will only delay the completion of his/her file.
 
No, it won’t impact your file. Gcms notes are your right. If it’s delaying, you can file an official complaint to Office of Information Commissioner. They will look into it & eventually you will get the notes
Nothing really happens unless you do not go to court, msg me if you are willing to team up post P.R to go to court against IRCC.
 
You needed people when no one was working during covid. Now you let them hang for 2 years (many of them including me being international students on top of that), keeping them as some side trash. Not only that, because of long delays people wanna go home. And if they are home and you give decision, then they're screwed again. Then they return and then again they have to keep sending webforms requesting to notify that they have returned. But you have already thrown their files back in the backlogs for another 3-6 months, pathetic. And then wait another 3 months for ECOPR and PR Card. No other country treats its important people like trash. No other country has such a huge processing delay for the visas. I think even some 3rd World country in Africa/Middle East would process visa far faster than they do here in Canada. I think it's simply power trip that these new "officers" have.

Can't even agree more...

No one knows for sure but the good news is someone is working/looking at your file. Your PR could be soon. I never received a ghost update related to GCMS notes—it’s probably a coincidence. Good luck!

Thank you for your response. I really hope that because I am only left with criminality else everything is passed.
