It's a whopping 257 page pdf file!!!

I'm not sure where to look as most info seem to be repeated. But i noticed this:

Assessments
Eligibility: Not Started
Security: Not Started
Criminality: In progress
Medical: Passed

How can eligibility be not started?

What's the difference between Security and Criminality checks??

In express entry eligibility is either positive or negative.
And that is decided after a ll your documents are reviewed.

They may be working on the eligibility review, they just not always update the status to "in progress". Also note that this data is almost 1 month old as gcms notes snapshot is usually taken few days after the request.
Security admissibility is assessed differently than criminal admissibility. Cic checks if a person imposes any security threat to Canada. For example the person maybe never committed a crime and wasn't charged but s/he might be inadmissible if belongs to organization which is considered as terrorist organization by Canada. Or, for example, a person worked for Intel agency of government which is not very friendly to Canada.

AOR: July 22
Started Processing: August 5
Request additional documents: August 20
Submitted Docs: sometime in September

I'm worried about my PCC's being accepted or not. I don't see any indication in the notes.

I kind of feel you requested a little too early depending on the category you fall into, if FSW then it was way too early because realistically your report is what was done on your file on the date you requested that note.

From your AOR date, it's a month and realistically , you would only have your medical concluded at that point, even if eligibility had started, it wouldn't have been concluded enough to make GCMS update. I think you should have movements on your file by now.

Forgot to mention, I applied FSW within Canada.

Requested GCMS notes Oct. 2, received it Oct. 29. So the request was exactly 2 months from staring the process of my application. Hmm.. probably a little too early as you guys said.

Sorry I thought I saw August as your request date, but nonetheless for inland FSW, it's a little early as you begin to see actual movements between 3-4months.

Go all the way to the bottom, there must be series of notes 1, 2, 3 and so forth. Check the first Note i.e. Note 1. This is the last note an Immigration Officer would have added on your GCMS. See what it says. It will give you some idea about R10 Completeness, Police Clearance, Education, etc.

Cheers!
