i just got my second batch of GCMS notes (applied end of july) and am not sure if I should get confident...
notes show eligibility passed by officer (after review requested) on july 28th. Lots of commentary about checking my letters etc and confirming my employment. Also confirmed the 50 extra points for job offer were awarded. No A35, 36 or 37 concerns so criminality is passed. I think security might be passed or at least just pending biometrics. Infosharing is completed and there's a small redaction that I think might be referring to A34 based on the sentence structure. the security section ~page 30 says security passed by the case officer on the same date as this big EE review note.
The very latest note after case officer passing EE is "file pending biometrics".
What's super strange though is that assessment section near the top of the notes says EE passed, security blank/redacted (was not started on last set of GCMS notes), criminality in progress, medical in progress, infosharing complete. The later section on medicals is also unchanged since the last notes and still says medical at M5 grade and ready to be assessed.
However, the big case officer notes block about EE also says "medical: passed" at the end...
so I'm not sure but i'm quietly hopeful that this isn't going to go through the medical PFL evaluation route but I also don't want to be overly optimistic. I've sent it all over to my medical specialist lawyer for her opinion.
R10 check was done on june 24th and all this EE passing and other notes were all from july 28th. My first set of GCMS notes was from July 2nd. The case analyst review was july 27th and the officer review was july 28th. Which aligns with the time when I saw the flurry of ghost updates and application status back and forth on my CIC account.
I got my first set of GCMS notes via the $5 ATIP request, took about a month. My second set I used the free version (misunderstood the requirements the first time) and this second set arrived in about 2 weeks. Looks like they were pulled just under a week after I requested it (public holiday weekend was in there).
It's wild that they essentially passed eligibility 1 month after R10, check, and if the notes are the only section to be believe, it's basically all done and pending biometrics....
