You have already been scheduled. You will not schedule any time slot. You can take the test on any day at any time between the test window.

When were your BG checks completed?

About the FP request for your spouse - Getting FP might make the application non-routine. Submit FP ASAP and wait for her BG checks to be completed.

Good luck!
 
Sorry, I was busy all day. You are very likely going to get basic information from them. They will not go into the details AFAIK. But if you want to ask them - you should probably ask them the location of your file, status of criminality, status of security and if the file is in "Registry" or "Test Ready" status.

I would strongly recommend ordering GCMS notes - they will give you a little more information.
Thanks a lot, can you please share the link for ordering GSMS notes? Also, is it free to order OR $5 as I think there were conflicting reports.
