Danny brother - May Allah help you and all during this difficult time - It's so frustrating because you feel so helpless not being able to get in touch with them. I just found this forum recently and it's so helpful to talk to people in the same situation - wish I had found it earlier. At least in your case MashAllah they waived the Re-PCC and forms, that's one step you didn't have to do which is great. Hopefully you will get your letter soon and get re-medical and visa will be issued in no time!!
I have a question about GCMS/CAIPS notes since you ordered yours - I saw someone posted instructions to order them - it seems like they're ordered through Ottawa. Do you know if ordering them delays your case at all? I mean they must have to contact Islamabad for the information since they are the ones that have the file. Can you please provide some advise on this matter?
Thanks
Thanks for your kind words
Ordering CAIPS doesn't delay the case at all and there is no effect on the case processing. They don't contact Islamabad for the information, they can extract the information from their system. They can extract the information in just one day. Although they take 30 days to send it to us. I ordered mine on Feb 22 and they were extracted on Feb 23. Everything on my file till Feb 23rd was on the GCMS notes.
Its better to order them via email as it saves you mailing time. Here is how you can order them.
Fill out these two forms; One has to be filled out by your spouse in Pakistan (Ask them to scan and email it to you after they fill it out and sign it).
1 - Form name IMM5475E
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5475E.pdf
2 - Form name IMM5563E
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5563E.pdf
IMM5475 needs to be filled out by the person who is being sponsored. IMM5563 needs to be filled out by the sponsor.
Pay the fee online and select Access to Information and pay with your credit card. You will have to register with them, just provide your email and confirm password; its that easy !!!

You can save the receipt or print it. They will email you a copy on your email address as well.
Scan and attach both forms with the payment receipt and send it to atip-aiprp@cic.gc.ca with GCMS ORDER in your subject. In the body, just write your name, File number and email address. Hope it helps.
