HELP! Today i received this email from rome office.Is it strange after asking for passport they are requesting other documents? Do you think i need to write them an email to clarify that they said they are going to issue the visa in an other email? and now they are requesting for documents like nothing has happened? For sure i will provide the requested document. i m so sad,it seems like they have emailed the wrong person.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Guys, posted this on a different thread too, from GCSM notes

I applied for first set of notes on August 21 and received them today.

Summary of notes:

Assessments: Eligibility: Not Started; Security: Not Started; Criminality: Not Started; Medical: Passed (as of May 2014)
Eligibility Assessment 1: Status: Not Started

Notes from Mississauga says: Sponsor's first marriage, no other sponsorship on file, sponsor meets eligibility.

It also says: No biodata on back of at least one photograph of PA. (Is this a concern?)

Based on this, do you guys think I am on the right track?

Also,

was wondering if INFO SHARING is a standard section? It says

Type: Biographic
Partner: USA
Status: NRT
 
Your GCMS notes don't have much information at the moment. You will know your file is going in right direction when they say under Eligibility: Recommend Passed for the applicant, or under the Notes, they describe your relationship as genuine and then say, "Recommend Interview Waived"
 
I am still waiting for my notes. Ordered July 22. How can they deposit my hard earned 5.00 and think that I am giving it to them for charity??? Geez.

That sucks, I wonder if it's really as hard as just simply going into a computer, finding your UCI#, and hitting send?

Thanks man, that's what I thought too. Regarding the INFO SHARING with USA, did you have that section too? Is this standard?
 
IP status received today ;D please update my excel :)

LOL....that made me laugh. I ordered the notes just once two months ago and I received it in my email exactly 30 days after I mailed it to them. I think they just try to discourage people from ordering the notes frquently, that is why they delay it for 30 days.
 
good day everyone ;D

just wanted inform you guys that i received "a decision has been made" status, i didn't know what is the date exactly , we've only checked it today.

is this status means they're sending me my passport with visa?

and pls update the spreadsheet for me thanks

God is Good All the Time.
 
Wife got PASSPORT REQUEST today. We feel incredibly blessed and hope it's smooth sailing for the last part.

Good news for you, glad to hear it! Any idea how long until the passports are returned, on average?
 
Thanks!

For Singapore VO, about 5-8 weeks on ave. We are hoping its sooner of course. She is already 22 weeks pregnant. Its gonna be very tight window for her to quit job and buy plane tickets before it's too late in the pregnancy.
