Hi guys,

I wonder how long now does it take to receive the ATIP after requesting one by email, and is requesting more than once could gives negative impact on the citizenship application?

Cheers

Requesting gcms notes usually takes about 30 days. Knowledge is power so do not be discouraged from ordering YOUR notes to understand as much as you can about your application.

Thank you very much Pippin , I was wondering if every time I order GCMS that CIC is recording that and would be a negative impression on my application? or they don't care?

Cheers

I think it is recorded that ATIP is ordered but I am sure it makes no difference to the VO or outcome of the application. I can tell you from experience, it is worthwhile to order your notes if you go beyond the accepted time frame. It is the only way you will know what is going on with your file and if you have to take corrective action. I believe knowledge is power, use it!

Sorry for confusion. Order GCMS notes. ATIP is Access To Information which is the request you make to GET your notes lol.
