I dont know how GCMS actually works but just thinking about it would work, let us say your file is not even touched- until it goes into 'in process', it is pretty much sitting there and no VO has touched it which means they have not even entered anything electronically either except 'App received' and or 'Meds received'. So when you do GCMS, they have to manually pull out your file, look at the progress and hten type that in electronically and send you the status elctronically. I think only us receiving it is electronic and there is nothing else electronic about GCMS. So in essence, we make the VO pull out your file and then knowing these guys are lazy, they are not going to put your file back at the same spot they pulled it from. I am guessing, if they pulled your file out of the 'Aug' bunch, then they will just stick it back into August bunch preferrably at the bottom because it is easier for them. I have also observed over last 6 months, people who dont bother much about these GCMS or MP, they get their DM faster- I am not too sure about all this but this is what I think is causing all this irregularity where Aug 8th is getting visa but not Aug 16th.
