I am a bit confused. I am also a May applicant. Are you saying in your GCMS notes, there is no where it says that Medical is 'in progress"?. Where did you get your medical 'not started' info from, which section?

For example, my GCMS from Oct 2 says the following:
MEDICAL
MEDICAL: 1

Rest of the stuff all blank.

Hi everyone :)

Just want to share my GCMS notes experience
couple of u might know 2 weeks back (Oct 30) I had applied for GCMS notes online but I didn't receive any confirmation email. After a couple of days I saw the charge $5 on my credit card, so I emailed ATIP on Nov 4 & told them about it and attached the receipt (fortunately I had printed the receipt after the payment) & asked them if they have received the request. On Nov 13 they emailed me back saying they need me to re-submit my ATIP application either by email or by post mail. So yesterday I emailed them attaching the application form, consent form, my PR card scan & the receipt copy scanned. I received their reply yesterday evening, saying I'll hear from them shortly and today I received the Notes :)

The notes says:
App status: In progress
Eligibility: Passed
Criminality: Not started
Security: Not started
Medical: Not started

In the notes section it says: Relationship appears genuine. Interview waiver recommended :) & RFV checks which means ready for visa I think ???
And yes, whenever u make a GCMS request, it shows in the Incoming section of the notes, I had applied for GCMS previously in Aug and it listed in the notes.

Hopefully they complete the meds & security quickly. Praying to God tht all get visa soon, so we can celebrate Christmas with our spouses ;D

wow that worked out better for u! Inadvertently got ur GCMS notes back in 14 days instead of 1 month! :D

Thanks for sharing, so it looks like meds not being updated deterred the VO from processing it further. If you don't have travel history, u will probably get DM by tomorrow or tuesday!

Y not start a google docs document (keep the permissions open to give Editing allowed for anyone with the link, and share link here), so everyone can contribute as time permits.

Desi-girl (I think) had a good structure laid out...so we could create that template on the document as a guideline.

You are already doing a lot for this forum (which is highly appreciated btw!), email/PM dumping is going to be a lot of burden for one person to handle.

I dont know how medicals can be "in progress" for this long...looks like someone forgot to finish up their job and that's probably why the application didn't get brought forward for further processing. I would suggest that you do an MP enquiry in 2 weeks, just to get things stirred up.

my initial feeling was that Meds review and update was done by CPC Mississauga. Our sponsorship was approved and file transferred to NDVO on jun 4th. By jun 7th, meds received update was on e-cas and GCMS notes say medicals passed was updated on Jun 4th itself.

We did our medicals on Feb 17th. For others that asked about Medicals on GCMS notes, this is what mine says:

Valid until: 2014/02/27
Due date: 2014/05/29 :eek:

Hello Everyone..

My husband got my GCMS notes today and the result is as given below.
Eligibility: Not started
Security: Not started
Criminality: Not started
Medical: In Progress ( Updated Date: 2013/04/10)
We both were so disappointed to see this. I dont know when i will be using the Golden words "SHINY" . Every morning we all wake up with a hope of reading a good news on ecas, but every evening we get sad seeing that nothing has changed. Still we keep our hopes alive. :)
May God soon unite us with our better half.

Is there any link where i can check the GCMS Notes description in detail?

Thanks!

The sun is rising....another Saturday morning @NDVO! :D I am guessing the updates are done Indian time?

Good luck to ALL applications, lets break the record with IPs and DMs!!

We filed May 17th...so if no updates within the next 2 weeks, ours would probably be the 1st from May batch to be tagged for interviews...will find out on GCMS notes due end of month :'( ...Cautiously optimistic!

found this in another thread hope this will be helpful for all giving interviews very soon.. :)

How to win interview with visa officer

MORNING OF INTERVIEW
1. wake up early in morning date of interview
2. take shower with cold water this opens your eyes and alerts you
3. shave properly. do not leave beard or facial hair
4. comb your hair nice (get a hair cut before the interview date)
5. brush your teeth good with Colgate. (this was very funny lol)
6. wear good clothes suite and tie looks very professional
7. wear black shoes make sure they shiny polished
8. wear black socks and black belt

AT THE EMBASSY
1. arrive at the embassy outside lineup 45 to 60 minutes before the interview
2. do not talk to people around in line they will only confuse you more
3. believe in yourself and be confident
4. do not think about negative things. stay positive

MEETING WITH VISA OFFICER
1. greet visa officer with big smile
2. shake hand with him if possible. not very hard do not crush visa officer
3. ask visa officer how are you today?
4. when visa officer tells you to take a seat then you sit down
5. look straight in visa officer eyes
6. do not look around left right up down
7. talk to him with nice voice. not to low not to high
8. talk with confidence
9. sit up straight
10. ask visa officer kindly to repeat question again if you do not understand first time

IN THE END
1. say thank you to visa officer
2. give visa officer big smile
3. shake hand with visa officer if possible
4. tell him it was nice to meet with you
5. push your chair back in its original place

NOT TO DO
1. do not chew gum in interview
2. do not stand up at any point during interview
3. do not chew your nails or bite your fingers
4. do not cross your legs sitting down
5. do not answer a question if you do not have an answer
6. do not answer a question you don't understand meaning
7. do not pretend you know all answers
8. do not keep nudging your head even when you don't even know what visa officer is saying
9. do not move a lot
10. never say WHAT? say politely, pardon me sir or madame
11. do not tell visa officer he/she has no right to ask this type of question
12. do not yell at visa officer
13. do not sound aggressive

We all come from many different cultures and societies. each culture has different teachings and doings. if you follow the points above you will be guaranteed successful or at least leave a very good remark and impress the visa officer.
Thanks Myrah! This is very helpful! :) :D :D
