Wow! Thanks for sharing this. This gives an idea about the kind of backlog the Visa processing officers are facing. The numbers are baffling!

Here's my understanding from the numbers:
- There are more than half a million (580k) applicants worldwide, awaiting a decision about their PR!
- New Delhi office has close to 40 thousand (precisely: 39,804) applications pending, of which about 19 thousand are Family class sponsorships including 3,878 Spousal sponsorship applications. :-X

These are the numbers as of July 2013. I am sure, the numbers have increased since then due to the prolonged strike and the wedding season in India in the months of Nov-Feb...

Hi All,

I got my final gcms notes this afternoon and applied for whole physical file for the fun of it. I wanted to see the following for ages but thank God I received my visa before I get to see these words, but I am super happy to read these words nevertheless in my notes:

"***Interview waiver recommended.***. FC1: F000***** FOSS checked for PA and sponsor - nothing adverse. Sponsor landed as SW1. PA has declared names of parents as: ****, and ****. File, supporting documents and photos reviewed. The PA and sponsor are compatible. The wedding was performed on Feb 14 2013 in accordance with cultural norms. The couple is compatible in all respects. First marriage for both.

The notes continue outlining everything that we wrote along with saying that we look good and comfortable in our outing photos". Some oberservations that could be useful for some:


1. The notes was cut just the day before IP, so it is not complete but eligibility shows recommend passed and in process
2. Location FCU-DIS (Family Class Unit - Delhi Immigration Service)
3. CSQ number was updated with no issues
4. Criminility and Security not started (before IP)
5. PCC was entered as no adverse info.
6. Original medical note was cancelled and new medical note was created with medicals as passed. Note that IME/UMI numbers change
between these two entries.
7. In the incoming, there is note of my email and MP's email (with MP reply). They track and note everything. So
if you send 15 emails, 15 emails are noted and forwarded
8. FCU-DIS for location means initial review is already done
9. They even noted that we communicated on the phone for fairly long durations. So they check everything.

Any questions, please let me know by PM.

Thanks,

Thanks for sharing!
