I requested a GCMS note on April 29th, 2015, and then I received this email:

Hello XXXX,

You have successfully submitted your request under the Access to Information Act to Citizenship and Immigration Canada.

Your payment receipt number is #RXXXXXXXX.

The information and documents that you provided will be reviewed and processing will begin shortly.

Please note that if you have submitted your request outside of regular business hours, the processing of your request will begin the following business day.

If your request is complete, it will be processed within 30 calendar days from the date of receipt, unless an extension is required. Extensions may be taken for limited and specific reasons, which are listed in the following sections of the Acts:

Your temporary request tracking number is XXXXXX. After your request has been registered, a new number will be assigned to your request.

Should additional information or documents be required, you will be notified by the Access to Information and Privacy Division at Citizenship and Immigration Canada.

I haven't received any updates or extension needed emails, did I miss something?

Its not usually for them to be a couple of days late . Some times mine come just on the 30 days some times a day or two after . E.G.you request them after 3-pm on a Friday, they won't start the process until Monday . There's your 3 days late. The email receipt you received is an automatic response.

If you haven't received your GCMS you should contact them to inquire about the delay at: ATIP-AIPRP@cic.gc.ca

Keep in mind there was a long weekend in May, so they may be late because of that!

I notice my notes always come between 1-2 EST. So if you don't receive them this afternoon, I would shoot an email.
