Hi @legalfalcon thanks for helping all of us and providing details when we don't have anywhere to go, Need your valuable advice on my case, it's been 16+ months from AOR. Have applied 4 GCMS notes and 1 CBSA from getgcms, last gcms notes still pending (IRCC asked 90 day extension)
AOR: 25 Sep 2018, FSW, family of 2, while applying I (primary) in US and spouse in India, medical is expired but no action needed.
I had lived in Mexico in the past so getting a PCC happened after AOR which itself took 4-5 months.
GCMS notes 1 (March 2019) revealed- 10.2 completed pending for Mexico PCC
GCMS notes 2 (June 2019): A 11.2 done, ready to finalize and Eligibility appears met, case analyst review, it also had s 16.1 c in 2-3 blank pages
So I ordered CBSA and GCMS again in Sep 2019- CBSA received in a month but nothing on security and criminality- it mentioned not started, GCMS came after 3 months and again it had s 16.1c in the right side of notes section but security/criminality as not started.
In March 2019 I had to move to India for 5 months- I updated IRCC by mail and web form for change of address and I moved back to US in Aug 2019 and again informed IRCC by mail/web-form.
Also our file moved from Ottawa to LA (US) office in June 2019 and again to New York office (US) in Dec 2019, as per agent on phone and somewhere in GCMS notes section it said work load distribution, I explicitly asked agent and he said its usual and offices share file mainly due to work load.
On mailing Ottawa VO office they always tell its in a queue for a review by an officer and nothing is needed by them.
My question is what should we do? and why it's taking so much time? now even GCMS notes take so much time, should I order CBSA notes again or what else can we do? We periodically drop a mail/webform though LA/NY office never respond but sometimes Ottawa office reply and they always say it's in queue.
Is there any other option to get updates and I read the blog in gcms on 16.1c so probably it's in security but still its been a long time and they have all PCC from countries I stayed in (India, US, Mexico), also the first CBSA notes didn't revealed anything so why so much time in this activity.
So, please provide if you have any suggestions and next steps on our case.
Thank you in advance and hoping to get your suggestions on this.
Lets first get into what is available from your notes. In the last few pages of your CBSA notes, what is written. Can you post those notes here so that I can see if your eligibility is passed or not.
Alternatively, you can join my FB group, link in my signature and post there.
