anyone kno the address where u can mail ur GCMS notes?

ma stupid scanner is not working so i want to send it by mail n insha'allah i will receive it by email.

I jus need the address to where u send the forms?
see bottom of this quote from Emanzaib

[quote author=emanzaib]
Laila - please see below instructions for ordering notes - let me know if you have any other questions

This is how a sponsor can apply CAIPS and GCMS. The sponsor has to fill and send these two forms,

1 - Form name IMM5475E
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5475E.pdf

- left side of the form is your spouse information (they should also sign the bottom) and right side of the form is sponsor information)

2 - Form name IMM5563E
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5563E.pdf

- select “Access to information Act” for q1
- select electronic files ONLY
- DO NOT select physical files (this can delay your case)
- Enter your information in last section (sponsor)


You have to make the payment of $5 before you send the form, and get the receipt number and add the copy of the receipt as the proof of the payment with your application.

Below is the link to make the online payment. You have to click Continue, Continue and select Access to Information.

https://eservicesak.cic.gc.ca/epay/welcome.do?lang=en


SENDING BY EMAIL

Email the forms to the following email address.

atip-aiprp @ cic.gc.ca


SENDING BY MAIL

If you want to send the $5 payment by cheque, Make the cheque payable to the "Receiver General for Canada"

Send the forms to:

Access to Information and Privacy Coordinator
360 Laurier Avenue West, Office NAR B1036
Ottawa , Ontario K1A 1L1

How long is everyone waiting before ordering GCMS notes? Also guys, for now the status says "application received", will it say medical results have been received as well since we sent the medical receipt with the our initial application?

Thanks :)
It may or may not. In my case, my wife has done remed and still it shows application received on the website. Yet the GCMS notes indicate that the file is in process. So if you don't see it change and aren't sure of what is going on, you can just request for GCMS notes. GCMS notes usually take 30 days.

what is counterfoil in gcms?
last update on gcms was in july and then nothing after that... i think security checks ho rahey hainnnnnnnnnnnnnn
I checked on google, definition of counterfoil: "The part of a check or other commercial paper retained by the issuer as a record of a transaction."

so maybe a payment you sent??

sabii said:
i found it in NOTES section... where it says notes and then notes1 notes2 bla bla in the very end
oh ok, not for me then...my wife's notes section doesn't say that..:( im afraid of my wife being thrown into the interview queue.

its not necessary that they will update eacse with medical results have been received for the first medical..it is usually updated for remedical...
GCMS is ordered when you dont know whats the status of your application and you are stuck

Hi

I'm currently sponsoring my husband... This is what's been going on with me so far:

"We received your application to sponsor on November 2, 2011.

We sent you a letter on December 21, 2011 about the decision on your application. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us."


After that, nothing has happened. So by looking at the rest of your progresses, I'm assuming that we should be receiving an additional request for documents soon? I just want to make sure everything is going normal with our case. Thanks. :)

She does have notes, but nothing mentioning the interview being waived. Notes just indicated the stuff I sent in and that to send remed request and the additional docs (questionnaire, more pics etc.).

You should get AOR (Acknowledgement of Receipt) soon InshAllah. From there they may ask for additional docs or not. After that they'll start processing your file, if they need more proof/docs along the way they'll send requests. Otherwise you may eventually get asked for remed+ppr or remed then ppr.
