Last time u got caips (9 pages). But since u got E-number in july 2013, This time u technically SHOULD get gcms (38 pages) if the E-number does ACTUALLY mean shifting from caips to gcms.

P.s: everyone in MI-2 has GCMS...but have all 3 (UCI+B file+E number)....however, visa office always used E-number while corresponding with them in emails. Cock n bull told me this.
So there is a chance that GCMS holders can also get E file number ;(

50/50...since u already must have an E-number. Whether or not they specially inform u about it now, depends.

We, never had gcms. So when the file was put in the gcms system, it sent an automated msg.

This purely is wat I THINK abhi....baaki, let's see.

Arsh thinks E-number has something to do with "file completeness" and people who got E-number r ahead of PCC people....I don't know whether to agree or disagree (infact, I slightly disagree with him).....I just know that the guys who got PCC are "procedure wise" one step ahead of E-number holders, since they have one LESS thing to be asked now ! So to me, PCC guys SEEM ahead of E_holders, at this stage.

Bottom Line: No one is REALLY ahead UNLESS they get MR. Since OCT 2012 udr people have sent pcc+rprf, and have been waiting for 11 months for MR...so to me, PCC thing is just a time buying tactic to drag things....they could ve asked it with MR...

That's 100% true , but for me I am in 3rd line no E file number and no PCC
God knows when and what will be the next step for applicants with GCMS
I was sure that there will be new BFD/Due Date which can give me some comfort that when to expect MR
But unfortunately that was not updated after UDR submission, my feeling is that they are waiting for instructions to go ahead and kept many files in BZD2 location and achanak good news means MR can be there any time:) this is again prediction on the other hand they also instructed not to contact for 18 months:( which means I can only contact CIC for follow up in Jan 2015 as per UDR email received in end of April 2013 + 18 months .....
So in worst case 18 months waiters can get Visa in 2015
what do you say???

If you are saying 2015 then it will be 2017 to get visa

I think it is storage location for a particular set / batch of files. Before it was BZZ back in 2012 when we were issued 6 to 12 months letters.

Actually my CAIPS are bit old now. BFD was 14 March'13 (I guess); and two weeks later I got MR.
In my opnion BFD does work but now a days , due to workload/strike , we are facing unexpected processing delays.

So guys, don’t loose hope, you will definitely hear good news on MRs and PPRs very soon inshAllah.

Quite right but my views has nothing to do with step wise status. I feel all of us 18 months letter holders will get next step update i.e. MR together but yes, time difference/gap can be big as they don't have workforce now to process things in bulk as before.
'file completeness' theory is more related to the question 'why some people got E, some PCC and some are asked for other supportive docs, as per my view, they r completing every thing b4 sending MR :) otherwise PCC before MR is quite rare and abnormal. My views others may differ :)

I don't think I follow u....
U said: "otherwise PCC before MR is quite rare and abnormal."

I say, PCC before MR is VERY normal....everyone I know got PCC request before MR.....some got it separately, some got it with MR, some got it with udr......this has been done since 2012.....I know someone, who got JUST PCC request and then got "MR/rprf/pof/imm008/travel form" after 6 months....

Not trying to argue...just trying to understand your point of view :)

P.s: that we all know.....that "they r collecting docs before MR"...asking some PCC....asking some POF....asking some UDR.....asking some PCC/rprf/udr (oct 2012 udr)...my point is: "No one is ahead or behind..We r ALL at the same level UNTIL someone gets MR"....and your point was : "E-holders are ahead of PCC holders and are at a safer level"...that's wat u said , right ??
....And I said I disagree with that...

For me, Currently, our files r more incomplete than the ones who got PCC, ....and the "MOST complete files before MR" are of that of oct 2012 udr people.....so I don't understand your theory of "completness of files".....if according to u, E-holders files were complete , then they would ve sent us MR, not an E-number :)....kher...I guess I'm not able to ask properly n u re not able to tell properly about this "completeness theory" ...so let's leave it :) coz for me, anyone without MR is at the same level....which is : "No where" :)
