understanding GCMS notes

[legalfalcon]

Hey
I was just looking at my gcms notes & it says
Application Assigment
Assigned to xxx
Assigned by xxx
DUE DATE: 24th oct- Does this mean the file needs to be completed by that date???

Anyone? @legalfalcon

The due date has no relevance. It is a system generated date, and most applications are processed before it and some way after it.

Hello Friends,

Security: Not Started
Criminality & Medical: Passed

In the latest notes updated by the agent, it says PReVU Verified.

Question... Has anyone requested when ordering GCMS notes to request the "application, supporting documents and correspondences sent to and/or from IRCC"? Is it useful and what information did they give? is ordering the "electronic notes" better?

Thank you!

This option gives you a copy of your application and all the documents you submitted to IRCC. This is helpful when you file for your citizenship later. It can be helpful if you have filed application before to IRCC and are not sure if what dates and information you provided.

Thank you Legalfalcon! Related to that then, is there a big difference between ordering notes under the "privacy act" vs the "access to information act"?

PReVU Verified (applicant information) - This is mentioned in the Notes: 1 of my GCMS document. Any idea what it means?

PReVU is one of the systems used by IRCC to verify personal information.

How do I get the gcms notes? I am the sponsor. I’m so confused

Hi @legalfalcon i have received gcms notes and i have a question. In my notes i realized that in A11.2 at CIO note the CRS points were assessed 953 instead of 978 at ita meaning 25 points less. Then reading further it seems they only counted my last position in the company which is 1.5 years old and ignored the previous 10 years. I worked in the company for 11 years uninterrupted assuming 4 positions same NOC and I submitted same reference letter describing each position in the 4 placeholders. Seems weird that the initial Eligibility assessment ignored the previous positions. Is that something normal?

Did u get PPR?

I saw this post, makes for gloomy reading:

http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/aor-july-2016-join-here.432787/page-81#post-5793326

I have security screening - and here is my understanding after extensive research:

Applicants with a particularly concerning background (such as a specific natural origin, or a military background, or frequent travel to certain countries) usually warrants the visa officer to request a security screening to be performed. This means that in addition to a quick security database check, the applicant's entire file gets sent to several security agencies in Canada (CSIS, CBSA, and RCMP) and the applicant's profile undergoes an in-depth check with includes getting in touch with the applicant's country of origin, and any other countries the applicant has lived in. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but from my experience (and of others, that I know of,) this is an unusually long process, that, in most cases, is stretching beyond a year (I know of many people who have security screening, and have been waiting for longer than a year in Express Entry.)

It is also my understanding, that CSIS is usually the quickest to return the results of these queries to IRCC, with the delay being mostly due to CBSA taking an extremely long time.

I wish I had better news - but that's how it is!

Cheers and good luck to all,
msf

Does anyone know if when you receive them the information is as of the date you requested it, or closer to when you actually receive it

First time it was 3 weeks to generate and 1 week to deliver. Second time it was 1 week to generate and 3 weeks to deliver. So no rule.

Makes sense, there's nothing stopping me from ordering another one before I've received the first one is there?

Not sure. I have never attempted it.
