I second gn and westzhu, province has nothing to do with the processing. I believe its related to background/security check thing which is done once your application shows in process status on ecas.

In my case, app got in process on 29 july, after 20 days on 18 aug, it was reviewed by officer, notes mention background declaration form should be checked, then on 28th aug, I got email from CIO-NS that there is three months lag in background declaration and ask to send the revised one. Once I send the revised which reached there on 4 sep, I see security screening is being conducted but dates are hided. Then on 11 sep, it was sent to ottawa and ottawa had it on 17 sep.. this is latest activity I can see on my gcms.

This means security is even done by CIO-NS and once all process are completed, it goes to ottawa.. so may be security/background is something which is taking time in your case. order your GCMs notes, may be they will give you a better picture..

In process mean your eligibility is completed. My file is transfered to cpp-ottawa without the security is completed (no status according to gcms notes)
 
What is GCMS or whatever ? and why we have to apply for it ? is it mandatory to apply for this or its all good without this ?

Another reason might be that some cases are just more complicated than others. Security, background, police checks might take longer.

Yes, I agree. some are complicated some are not. I just received an email requesting for additional documents. I have submitted a complete documents in my initial submission of application, based on what is required in the list but now they are asking additional information/documents such as baptismal certificate though I submitted already a birth certificate and elementary and/or secondary report cards though i have submitted already a secondary certificate of graduation and college diploma & TRanscript of records during my PNP application.

I did not expect this, and it is difficult to schedule to go back to my home country just to get the documents. But now i need to go back again for the 5th time. I went home 4 times already this year ( including during medical) it is too expensive going back and forth. Anyways, I have no choice but to comply with the request.

God Bless us all.

Can someone tell me what is GCMs ? why we need this and is it mandatory?

GCMS are notes which are used by VO to take decision. It has all your information such as medical, criminality, security and eligibility. It is not mandatory to order them but one can do so in order to check his/her application status in detail. It gives more details than ecas.

It is free to order and takes upto 30 days to receive it via email.

Hope this helps.
