Dear friends,

Perhaps the current delays can be attributed to implementation of GCMS (Global Case Management System), replacing CAIPS by CIC at all visa offices. Good majority of staff at all visa offices are busy with trainings. As its a new system, staff find it slow and complex but versatile.
 
My full docs was received by Buffalo office on May 13, 2010 and received 2nd AOR on Sept 24, 2010. NOC 0111

Thanks vermas for the news, Is it declared officially somewhere ?

Please see point # 5.2 on the following link stating that GCMS would replace CAIPS starting June 2010. And as we all know, CIC actions have slowed down since June 2010.

Verma - Thanks for pulling me in. Please add my name also to this list. We need to track only one thing as to when we are either going to get a note from Buffalo, or file getting transferred or getting request for medicals.

Guys, when it will say Received by the Visa Office? After we will get the second AOR?
 
I really WISH I could join this thread but with the pace of 2nd AOR from Buffalo hope I will be only on 2011 thread. Congrats to you all guys who got the second AOR. Wish you all a smooth processing from now on
