In my last GCMS notes (pre-interview), there is a Due Date but no BFD. Is BFD only shown when it is assigned to someone for a particular task?

Incidentally I think my Due Date changed at the point they decided to interview me (it was put back 7 months to Sept). I'm awaiting some new notes in a week or so.
Yes BFD is assigned when they will open your file next time to do some activity or if they have initiated something and they are expected to be completed by then.

It would be interesting to see GCMS post MR, but for sure we not going to get any specific dates or info related to S/C checks as that will be hidden.

Thanks +1
I'll share what's changed when they come through, but as you say there will probably be blanked out bits if they have moved forward with security. I'm hoping Crim and Eligibility should be completed though due to the interview.

More or less your GCMS will show something like this:-

ASSESMENTS
Eligibility: Passed
Security: Some Codes
Criminality: Passed
Medical: Passed

Hi
Guys sorry for late update, I've got PPR1 thru my Consultant

Also, I want to share below activities with regards to my application.

On May 8, I sent CSE asking for updates, few hours later I received e-mail & call from my Consultant asking Clear Passport Copies, information about height & eye color (This is for Updated Information Chart).

Today May 12, I received reply to my Inquiry informing me that e-mail (PPR1) was sent to my Consultant on May 7. They also forwarded the sent e-mail & instruction.

Thanks
Congratulations. About time you got it!

In my notes ( around 7 weeks old)

ASSESMENTS
Eligibility: Passed
Security: Not Started
Criminality: Passed
Medical: Passed

Whereas the VO says they are waiting for Security checks to be completed.
2ndly, in notes section, there are few new activities showing as:

Label: Criminality (start date, update date, VO comments)
Label: Medical (start date, updated date, VO comments)
Label: Admin s15(1) ( start date and comments blank)

What does it mean? Notes section shows there is some hidden activity and LVO also says S/C checks in process then why under ASSESSMENTS it says Security Not Started?? Any thoughts?

No one can decode their language "Admin s15(1)" as per as my knowledge they will write some codes and the word 'Blank' in S/C checks column.

Reason is pretty straight forward these are S/C checks no one should have information when it was started and completed etc...
