Does anybody know if they process Criminality (I don't mean the long security check) after Eligibility (of applicant not sponsor) ? If you've your GCMS notes please take a look at the date and see which of the two they process first? in my notes both are "Not Started" even though they reviewed eligibility, it doesn't even say "In Progress". The only thing "Passed" is medical.

That's a good question. Short answer, we don't know what they actually do. In reality, they are supposed to start criminality and security after eligibility is passed, since if eligibility is not passed, then there's no need to spend resources on the other two. This is especially true for security, as it's done by an external body.

I've also seen that many times on the notes they don't use the "In progress" or "Started" or something like that, even though there are codes for those steps. A lot of times they just put Not Started, and then Passed or Not Passed once they are done with it. At least from your experience, it's clear that they have started the eligibility section on your application.

Hope this helps!

No worries. :)
If you don't mind, can I ask you something about your notes? Would be able to confirm for me if in the section "Paper file/ APPLICATION ASSIGNMENT" in your notes you have empty fields or not? For us it's almost at the end of second page of the pdf.

So not the initials for an officer or any thing like that in from of the assigned to/by?

I'm kinda confused about them putting the "Doc Requested" in front of the Location field. We can ask this over in the GCMS thread, maybe someone has a better idea?

Yes there's nothing written in front of them, just empty. I guess they keep the names secret?
