This is normal.I also got the same mail after I applied but directly received notes.No other email or number in betweenMy friend applied GCMS notes on April 21st, 2021 under privacy act. After submitting the request, he got an email with temporary reference number. They said once your request will be registered, he will get permanent number. Till today, he has not received a permanent number. Is this normal?
He applied from Canada and he was not told to submit any documents such as passport or anything upon submission. Is this normal too?
