Not sure, I have sent you a personal message too, can you please check that..
I cant copy paste from PDF but I have written that, so please see and advise.

Thanks
Sometimes you are stuck on security screening. I have a similar report to yours....'recommended passed' but was stuck in security not started for a long time. Had ordered gcms notes severally kept getting similar update, nothing changed...whatever was outstanding was redacted(hidden) on my gcms note. Recently received schedule A form request in February, filled and submitted. Afterwards got my latest gcms note and found out that my security just started. It was the schedule A form request that activated it....the earlier information that was hidden was the schedule A request.(why they hid that vital information on the gcms notes for months and never requested, I will never know.) Now I am just waiting for my security screening to be completed. Meanwhile, my medical has expired but hoping for an extension. I am a Feb 2021 applicant. Gone past the standard processing time of 34 months, but It's all good, we wait. My advice? Update the schedule A form and send via webform. You have nothing to lose.

How to request gcms notes?
Requests for a GCMS note can be submitted (either by the principal applicant or an authorized representative) can be made either online or by mail through official IRCC channels. The fee for an ATIP request (and by extension a GCMS note) is $5 CAD..
I dont have link anymore, but you can google it and get the link.. I just googled and see this:
https://gcms-notes.ca/order/

And also GCMS can only be requested by someone who is on PR or Citizen of Canada.

Thnx

chatgpt says "
The phrase "R 87.1 CEC min requirements - Met" refers to the applicant meeting the minimum requirements for the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) under Section 87.1 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (IRPR).

The CEC is a program that allows individuals with Canadian work experience to apply for permanent residency. Meeting the "min requirements" means that the applicant has satisfied the basic criteria to be eligible for the program, such as having at least one year of skilled work experience in Canada, meeting language proficiency levels, and having work experience in an eligible occupation."
My criminality check has been completed in April itself and may I know why the security check is not yet started? And when might it get started any idea?

I received GCMS notes and according to that seems everything fine, I am not supposed to provide any document.
Final notes says "Analyst Recommendation"- Recommend passed.
Eligibility seems good too.

Not sure what they are waiting for now?

Hi Sophia- what steps have you taken? to get PPR. and please let me know your timeline as well. Thanks
Timeline: Application submitted February 2021
PPR: January 2024.

I really don't have the full time anymore on my head‍♀.

I started ordering for cbsa notes every months when it was taking long.
I also tried to understand the notes, so I know the problem with my application. And that was how I worked on where I had issues before PPr came
