How do I know when my security screening has started. My GCMS notes only show security screening one time under admisibilities section. It does not show any date there?

Security screening is mentioned only as one of the subactivities in admisibilities section. Is there any other section that I am missing?
There will be one activity under Activities like below. That is your SS start date.

Activity: X
UCI:
Name:
Sub-Activity/Activity Type: Security Screening
Field Name: Status
New Value: Not Started
Updated Date: 20XX/XX/XX

Here the updated date is your SS start date.

In my notes, I cannot see anything after Field Name "Status" under security Screening. Rest is all blanked. Now how do I know whether they have started it or not

Did you checked all Activities from 1 to 30? Any Activity number which has Security Screening as Activity Types? Possible to share the screenshot here? If you can't find anything, then guess your SS is yet to be started. Order fresh notes to get an update. It might show more SS activities.

All the best!

Job Offer........
Pre-Assessed..
Seems like for Russian applicants it is double checking
Yes, I wrote to Warsaw-im-enquiry@international.gc.ca
But they are answering quite slow, takes around 2 weeks...
hope we`ll get final confirmation soon )
Hi!

Any news on your case?

Yesterday I finally received confirmation from Warsaw that my file is with them and under review. One more guy whose file was transferred to Warsaw in late May received his gcms and there's no new information. His file hasn't been picked up for review for 3 months!

If your background check is still NOT APPLICABLE, you should raise CSE or send email to push them. You are not stuck in security screening.
