Guys Going through this thread , I am worried i have ordered my GCMS note too early. Can anyone suggest me if it is early or not.

MY AOR date is 5 Oct 2015 and I ordered GCMS on 30th DEC 2015 which is roughly around after 80 days of AOR. Is it too early. I am expecting it to get my notes in first week of Feb which is 4m after AOR
No. I think you ordered at the right time. Anytime after 75 to 90 days looks revealing I think

Guys,

I had requested GCMS notes in late November and with no updates for about 40 days, I asked CIC for status and they are requesting additional 5 business days to provide reason why my GCMS was delayed in the first place. Nothing on whether I will receive the notes by then at all. How normal is this? Do you think they could be finalizing the application that's why they delay?

I am outland FSW mid Sept AOR and mid October RPRF

Many have ordered GCMS notes recently so they must be overloaded right now to get all of them sent out. I think you need to wait as you can't really help in this situation. Looking on the brighter side that can be a possibility :) :) :)

Hi,

I have ordered GCMS-notes on 12th Dec. (after 80days from AoR).
but today I got the following reply:

"Sir, Madam,
Thank you for contacting Citizenship and Immigration Canada. I am pleased to follow up on your request:
Dear Client,
Thank you for your patience.
We are continuing to follow up on your case with the responsible office and they are looking into the issue. We will communicate with you again once we receive more information."

I guess that this message is normal and everyone who ordered GCMS will get first this. is it true? or anything i have to worry about?

warm regards,

Relax, you've applied in September, while some July and August applicants are still waiting.

My worry is: my current work-permit expires by 19th Jan. and I wanted to change my employer.
I applied for bridging-open workpermit on Sep.25th and till date no clarity on that.
Unable to go out of this country and unable to work as well.
Money and time is being loosed & slowly becoming a kind of refugee.

Per new rules, if your R10 check is OK, they should issue you a BOWP. AOR is not required anymore.

anarsoul is a july 14 aor who also seems to get have got PPR on Dec 30, maybe they are doing a batch run of PPRs clubbing set of monthly applicants.. Does this mean irrespective of when file becomes RFV, all RFVs will only be processed in next PPR run?

Need more sample size to decide..
