Thank you Hasan Bhai. I am from Canada. What is the GCMS notes? How do I go about ordering it? I sent an e-mail yesterday evening to CIC and they replied saying that it is at the initial stage and they will sent the next step to my husband.
From a past post:
How to apply for GCMS / ATIP notes.
CIC Link:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/atip/requests-atip.asp
Only a person who is in Canada can request the notes.
If principal applicant is in Canada, he/she can request for himself and apply for free under Privacy Act.
If sponsor is requesting it on behalf of Principal applicant, you need a consent form from PA and $5 fee. You can receive consent form from spouse thru email and upload it. Apply under Access to Information Act.
It takes about 30 days to receive by email. It is a ~30 pages document

Hello vickey89,
GCMS note is you personal request to CIC. But you need to do all this thing. Hope it will help you.
GCMS note is very important. I will tell you how you can get your GCMS note. GCMS note cost 5 Canadian dollar only if you hire a lawyer for your GCMS note he or she will cost 50 Canadian Dollar.
Generally you need to fill up a from name IMM 5744E. pdf. There you see Section A -1. In section A- 1 there you need to fill up applicant full name, given name, date of birth and applicant signature. In this form you see section C -3 there you need to fill up sponsor full name, given name, and email address and in the sectionC- 4 you need to tick email option.
I give the link of this form---------------------------------------
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5744E.pdf
Most of the applicants are outland that’s why applicant needs to fill the form and the applicant can scan it and send to the sponsor email address. Because when any sponsor wants to get the GCMS note he or she needs this form.
The other thing the sponsor will fill up the web form to get the GCMS note. When he or she fills this web form she needs to tick the electronic papers option. If anyone chose the electronic paper option in this form he or she will get his or her full application update or what happen to his or her application within 30 days.
When you fill up the IMM 5744E.pdf than you need to fill the web form. Here the link of web form

Hope it will help you. Best of luck
