Hey everyone! I also got a temporary file number as I received my ordered GCMS notes today. Seems like my application is in queue for processing. Not much showing in the notes but it’s good to confirm that all my info has been keyed in the system.

A fellow applicant who called the call centre said they were told it looks like AoR should be issued 18-20 weeks after date of receipt - this is not verified by anyone else though just something to keep in mind.
how did you order gcms notes? it asks for application number..

GCMS in the past was called CAIPS Computer Assisted Immigration Processing System

Thank you very much !! I'll wait a lil bit then..
Good idea even if we all have the right to order GCMS notes, ordering such notes. 4 your knowledge I found this from web:-

Does ordering GCMS slow the processing of the file or affect it adversely?
The answer is NO. Ordering GCMS is your right and it does not affect your file or your case at all. On the contrary, in some cases since the officer working on your file has to review your file before it is sent out, does update documents received from other agencies and helps your file move forward.
AS per

" Ordering the GCMS notes is the legal right of an applicant. Now whether should you order the GCMS notes within the first 3-4 months of filing your application, I would say no. Ordering GCMS notes unnecessarily burdens the system. But no one can stop you if you would like to.

I wrote a post earlier today and posting it again here. So read it and you will know what GCMS notes are for and how they help. "

I agree with him :)
Because even if deptt. is totally diff sending u notes it somehow halts your running files and results in adding that "ordered notes by I.O."
