A JR, I believe, must be filed within 60 days. Want to confirm that. Again you may want to find an immigration lawyer to help with filing. It will most likely cost a minimum of $7-10K if you want a lawyer.

Sorry for your refusal. So what were reasons for refusal? Most writers in Canada, I know, are not full time or cannot support themselves without taking other jobs so not solely self employed. Most self publish which costs money too. Did you show that your writings will advance Canadian culture? Did you provide contracts of your writings with major publishers to that show that you are self sustaining? With so much experience, you would have shown all contracts, receipts, commissions to show that you were self employed, and did not take outside employment.

Hi, GCMS Notes are the only accurate way of providing a detailed record of an applicant's file, including granular notes on the progress of your application, your case history from the day you applied, and also includes officers' analysis, and information in your file at each stage of the processing time.
It takes about 30 days to receive your GCMS notes. With the web form, you usually get a generic automated response.
hi I am here with more updates
HongKong issued quite a lot ADRs(around 20-30) and a few IMEs (nearly 10) Yesterday.
Mostly to applications from the second half of 2020.
Still no sign of new AORs.

Thanks for the update! How late in 2020? Any November/December applications from this bunch? Is IME medical request? Also, are the ADR's just a re-request for background checks that expired?
July - December 2020.
quite a few in Nov - Dec pack.
yes, IME is medical request
almost everyone was asked to update outdated forms and documents (police certificate, passports)
there are few cases where ircc requested evidence of SE experience of more than 2 years within 5 years before application
and some also need to resubmit SE business plan and proof of significant contribution.
2-5people, received IME 2 hours after ADR
Most likely, all those who applied until the end of 2020 and also first of 2021 , their task should be determined before the end of this year, I think.
fingers crossed. It has been too long since the last update on processing times, with the website indicating the latest update was on August 22, 2023, and that updates are done weekly. It is possible that the delay could be due to preparations for the digital nomad visa.
