I got my second GCMS notes today

Eligibility status changed from Not Started to Recommend Passed on the second page
Selection-EE Econ Recommend Passed on 27/3/2017 at Cairo VO
A11.2 Met on 15/12/2016 At CIO
Is it supposed to change to Passed or may remain Recommend Passed till the end?

Security status is still Not Started!!!
Could the security be ongoing nevertheless?

Thanks

I was wondering if you could answer the question above as you already have the notes.

HONEST, that is a good question. Would also like to know if security can be ongoing even if it states "Not started". Hope a senior member can elaborate

The most recent note has been done at CIO by a case analyst on 15/12/2016. There is no existence of CPC-Ottawa in my notes. My primary office is Cairo and my secondary one is CIO.
I have passed 5 months and still waiting :( I am worried about the security status being Not Started till now!
I also have this in Associations part:
Organizations and Entities: 1 and a big white space under it. what does this mean?

The A11.2 or the Eligibility is done is 2-3 stages. First an Case Analyst reviews and makes a suggestion, then an agent will look into the recommendation and approve it. In 99% cases the case analyst's review is upheld by the agent. The terms PASSED, Recommended PASSED, MET or similar terms have the same meaning.

Most likely not. In the past I was asked this question, and someone posted this before. My response is available here: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/understanding-gcms-notes-t366708.0.html;msg5949862#msg5949862

Thanks
Hope this helps!

Yes there is s16 on the top right but there is no s15 in any page. I included being a member of the syndicate of pharmacists in the personal history beside my work experience and education. It is a professional organization and it is a mandatory part to get the practice license in egypt. I hope this doesn't make any further delays. Thank you so much.

Hi legalfalcon,
I used the GCMSnow website and received my notes today .
It's a great service and thank you for all the help on this forum.

I had a quick question and wanted to understand what this entry in my GCMS notes meant ..

My security still shows not started
But on the last page of my GCMS notes there is note which reads
*FOSS Check completed - satisfied PA meets all other requirements* & and on the right top corner of this oye it's written s.15(1) . This note was on March 29, 2017 and my background check went into progress on March 31,2017

On the first page of this thread I have explained s15/16. Don't be too concerned about it.

Just to clarify, I am not related to GCMSNOW. I am one of the founding partners in https://www.getgcms.com. If you want to support the efforts, please subscribe from https://www.getgcms.com.

I have given a detailed explanation about s15/16 on the first page of this thread. FOSS check is the Field Operations Support System check where the IRCC runs the applicants name in three database called FOSS. This gives they results of any prior immigration violations etc. If your BGC is in progress, you are closer then ever to getting a PPR.

Hi LegalF.

I am FSW Outland, AOR 22 April 2017
Current trend for passing Medical for this stream is around 40-50 days.
Average time for PPR is 100 days. https://myimmitracker.com/en/ca/trackers/consolidated-e-apr-tracker-express-entry-permanent-residency-application/analytics/average-time-to-a-ppr-based-on-the-stream

Since I can not know when the R10 is passed, when do you recommend ordering GCMS notes, also a month after AOR?
For e-GCMS it says approximately 40 Days Delivery Time. So do I get fresh report or report that is "old 40 days" by the time it gets to me?

Thanks
