If you requested the GCMS in end March and early April, they have been delayed, and will be released soon.

Also remember that the 6 months processing time starts form the the day the R10 is met and not AoR.

So wait for the GCMS. There is no need for any concerns yet.
Hi, where to check R10 date in gcms notes?

@legalfalcon I have ordered gcms notes today ... in consent form should I only sign for primary applicant part and leave other part blank ...? As I am a single applicant.
I called an agent today and she said rr for a document submitted.

@legalfalcon.

Hi. Over the last year I have had probably too much information from reading forums, etc. and also probably things have changed. Just for the purpose of clarification, I wanted to check the Timelines and stages one more time. I did read your post explaining the below:

R10 – Completeness Check
Criminality
Medicals
A11.2 – eligibility
Security

But for an applicant, the stages are:

Profile
ITA
AOR
Medicals Passed
Biometrics
RPRF
PPR
COPR
(I might be missing something here maybe like)

So would be helpful if you could provide info on which happens when? For example once R10 is complete, you get Medicals Passed (just random example, might not be accurate). This would really help a lot of us understand what is going on in the background stages.

Hope the question was not too much to ask.

Thanks

Dear members, I would appreciate if you will help me with the inside to my GCSM notes, I'm confused for what is it review required.. :(

As per notes, Eligibility is recommend passed, criminality in progress since July 18th and background check not started.
I'm a PA and I have one dependent, my husband. He got study permit refusal in summer and the reason for it was 'limited career opportunities in the country of a residence'. We got married 4 months later, applied for a spousal work permit and it was granted. Now he's here with me in Canada.
We applied for PR on July 4th, on July 18th medical was passed and IRCC requested schedule A for him for a certain period (military service) - we provided the full signed form and military discharge document within 7 days timeframe. For me, criminality is recommend pass, for my husband is review required, even though it's written NRT.

If it's important, on September 21st we also applied for my husband's study permit, since he needs to go to college in JAN and we were not sure if we will receive approval for PR by this time.

Please see the image attached. Are we in review required for visa refusal or for a military document? Is there anything we can provide to IRCC or it's okay to just wait? Your insight will be highly appreciated!

We cannot understand especially the line 'documents set to review'. And what makes me wonder, they mentioned 'to address the gap' but there were no gaps in personal history/address history :(


good day,

Please what is your timeline? have you been issued PR? My GCMS notes is exactly same comments as yours

For those who received their notes, is the pdf file you received a searchable one? What is the best way to convert the pdf to a searchable format?

What you have listed are the different events that happen. When I refer to stages, I am referring to the specific legal stages, and not the events.

Use adobe acrobat pro to convert the pdf file into searchable one by using optical text recognition.
