Your husband needs to fill and sign form imm5744e.pdf.

Request GCMS online from link given by v_sys. Simply, attach copy of imm5744 and scan copy of your Canadian passport. Pay the fee by your credit card. I requested GCMS notes on May 19 and received by email on June 19.

"the request is for a large number of records or necessitates a search through a large number of records and meeting the original time limit would unreasonably interfere with the operations of the government institution."

I'm also from nov-dec applicant. I received my GCMS notes a few back. Is mention interview is required on my notes. And they received my hubby pp on march 8 and put the note for interview recommended on march 15. I don't know when they will call us for an interview. I plan on attending it with him. The min I find out. I'm off to India. I think it will be better if we are together at the interview. Oh god going back and forth to India is becoming very expensive! I've already been 3 times last year and once this year back in march. I'm so nervous abt the interview because my wedding is an eloped wedding and my mom did everything to stop our wedding. She even emailed Jason kenney! I don't know what she emailed him. But I think she emailed him saying we are not a genuine couple. My moms email address was on my notes too! I'm so scared that this might keep us apart longer! What should I do? ???

20 June 2013 - Canada’s Foreign Service Officers announce additional pickets in Ottawa and escalated service withdrawals
As part of ongoing job action to bring Treasury Board back to the negotiating table to address wage inequities, Canada’s Professional Association of Foreign Service Officers (PAFSO) announced ‘information pickets’ to be held Thursday, June 20th in downtown Ottawa and further withdrawals of service in key international locations.

“The escalated scope and intensity of service withdrawals this month are a direct consequence of the federal government’s refusal to engage meaningfully with its employees on the issue of pay equity,” said Tim Edwards, PAFSO President. “While we’re eager to get back to work, these disruptions will continue until the Treasury Board offers a fair deal to our members.”

PAFSO officials estimate that job action by immigration officers has resulted in major delays to application processing and a significant drop in the number of visas being issued. These impacts will be felt directly by Canada’s tourism industry, educational institutions, and businesses relying on temporary foreign workers. The Department of Citizenship & Immigration’s decision to shift non-striking resources toward visa processing will also result in significant processing delays to applications for permanent residency. In addition, a number of ministerial and parliamentary visits abroad have been shortened or cancelled in recent weeks and negotiations with key trading partners delayed as a result of these rotating strikes. Foreign Service Officers play a central role in organizing and executing high-level visits and negotiating trade agreements on Canada’s behalf.

As of today, all eligible members are striking in the following locations: Manila, Beijing, Bangkok, Jakarta, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Chongqing and Astana. Immigration officers are striking in Delhi, Chandigarh, London, Moscow and Mexico City. In Tokyo, economic officers are also on strike. Additional withdrawals of service are impacting dozens of divisions at CIC and DFAIT headquarters in Ottawa.
