Can anyone clarify what the due date in GCMS notes actually means? Is this the date by which an application is supposed to be finalized?

I don't agree on this. It's a bring forward date, which changes each time the file's opened for review.

Hi,

What does finalize actually means ? For some people (including myself), FBI PCC is still pending and might take a while. What happens in a case when the due date arrives and CIC doesn't still have the PCC. They just shift the due date forward or what ?

Regards

My understanding:

Due date: is the date your application has to be finalized. It can be changed due to any circumstances.

Bring forward date: is that date when you application has to be accessed again (a kind of reminder in system). It can be changed by IO because of various reasons (a kind of snooze button/re-scheduling BFD).

Weekly +1 ;)

Goku, if you are referring to the "Application assignment" section, I am pretty sure it's a BFD. Tomorrow I am expecting the GCMS file btw, although I am skeptical to see any movement, since third line was updated March 27, and the notes will date back to ~March 10.

Thank you! Don't know who the officer is, as I have not requested GCMS notes.

Hey all,

Happy Weekend... As promised, I am here to report the latest news regarding my case. In my previous post I explained how I sent my passport to Canada and it reached CPC-O on 3/31. On 4/1 the Canada post label got activated indicating that my passport was returned.

Well, CPC-O returned my passport without a stamp but enclosed CPR. So finally the journey is almost done and I just need to do the landing.

Wish you all the best

You're welcome. For a final review to take place, all assessments are to be completed first. If PCC is outstanding, the file location will not change to RFV-XXX (where XXX stands for the month of the prospective review by the AD).

The good thing about that officer is that he/she pays attention to BFD and actually picks up the file to see how it's fairing. My due date in February was the 23rd, but no third line update took place on that day.

Thanks. +1 to you too and Diplomatru (oops Karma) for clarifying further.
