hey - how did you apply for your child's GCMS? I tried but it asked to fill some parents consent form. So I didn't do it...
Hi,

It is very easy. You apply the same way. I put my name in the Requester Information section. I enter child name and details in the Requesting Information For section. I attach the following with the GCMS request:
  • IMM5744 form (which both parents needs to sign)
  • Father PR card
  • Mother PR Card
  • Child PR Card
  • Child Birth Certificate (if it's in English)
You can download the IMM5744 form from this link. The form is valid for 1 year, you do not need to sign a new one every time you request GCMS notes for your child. You can submit the same with a request each time.

To fill a form, follow the instructions below:
  • Section 1 of the consent form indicates your information (Father Last Name,Father First Name) as the person authorized.
  • Section 2 of the consent form indicates the minor’s information (Child Last Name, Child First Name);
  • Section 2.1 of the consent form indicates the minor’s mother’s information, handwritten signature and signature date;
  • Section 2.2 of the consent form indicates the minor’s father’s information, handwritten signature and signature date;

The both are at Grant DF status. Notes on my child’s application says Ceremony Ready where as my application is pending, waiting for a response from ICES.

You know the funny thing, LPP is In-Progress in tracker, Not Started in eligibility section of the GCMS notes and in the note I posted above, Language is passed. I don't know what to believe
I think most of officer waiting until all lpp complete to post at same time on tracker but some are post one by one.

I’m thinking of requesting a second set of GCMS notes but idk if ordering them might delay my file even more. What do you guys think?
