Just Curious, did you order GCMS notes if so when and did any of the checks on the notes stated that they have been started? Appreciate the feedback.

Last GCMS notes that we have ordered were dated September 3rd.
Security was not started, Eligibility was in progress; Criminality was completed for RCMP, FBI. There was additional document request which we provided, final note said that application is placed to be reviewed by visa officer.

They do have a strange way of reviewing apps I agree.
Do your notes say anything about the relationship? Ours also mentioned - confirmed to be genuine or something like that(with brief history of relationship). That was at the end of the notes.

My last set of notes which i received in September stated none of the checks started nor did eligibility. Tried contacting my MP last week and they proceed to tell me that my app is inland and nothing has started however called CIC and contacted Ottawa and they both have stated its an Outland app so I'm not sure if i want to believe the information MP gave me. I do get my next set of notes next week so we will see lol.

There is no way you are inland (based on the processing times in your info), they probably don't know what they are talking about.

Congrats o6ocpaka!!! COPR will be there soon!

Jamsham, I feel like you are single-handedly paying all of the salaries of the CIC employees with how many notes you order, lol! I hope they get to yours soon.

Hey everyone, I was wondering if there was a phone number that I can call the ottawa visa office? I'm going to be in Canada for a few days, so I figured I might as well try.

Thanks ChellyCat! Were there any updates for you on the Application Status site when DM happened in terms of new activities? Our just says Decision Made, but there is nothing about if the copr was sent yet or not, or what kind of decision :)

Planning for May 14
Has anyone received AoR2 from Ottawa recently? I had to call Ottawa to get my SA, and ecas still hasn't updated to say approved. It has changed the PR portion to in process, but my husband hasn't received any form of correspondence.

Also, does anyone else check ecas obsessively? I've been checking it multiple times a day... >_<

There is no phone number to reach them by, you can only communicate with Ottawa via fax and email, good luck with either one of those.
