Hi everyone,
Hoepfully someone can help me on this.

My notes says under assessments "Info-sharing: Complete". Going forward in notes, i see section of info sharing & status says "NRT". This info sharing partner is Usa as i did travel to usa once.

I guess NRT means no reportable trace but this status was sitting in my file, before info sharing said complete under assessment.

Please advise on this to help me understand what significance complete & nrt has?

Thanks!
My recent notes show the same information. I know that my file is under security screening (SS). Does this information indicate anything SS? fAny experts here?

Hi,
Thanks for replying.
But my security says "No started" & I don't see security screening activities in my gcms notes.
So, really not sure what's happening

@legalfalcon
Please advise on this sir, It's getting very confusing. Please don't mind!

If you security is not started, then you will not see SS as the security has not begun.

Thanks for suggesting. Is it possible that ircc is gathering info from agencies but security is not started. I did email ottawa & they said additional verifications needed. Recently in gcms notes I found that info sharing is complete with usa under client details. But still ottawa says additional verifications needed after info sharing is completed.

Please advise sir!

That email is generic and do not read much into it.

Hello,

I called CIC and they said that I had passed all the checks. I went through and stated security, eligibility etc. She said the checks are done and my case was being finalised.

Does anybody know of finalised means approved?

I am in IP2 and she said I shouldn't expect to hear back until the new year, possibly February.

Kindly explain what does the following remarks in GCMS notes mean.

A candidate got the following remarks in GCMS notes

EE Eligibility
A11.2 Appears Met MEDICALS: ALL VALID Ready to Finalise PNP Triage: Refer to IR

There are all positive remarks except for Funds which states (Proof of Funds: Included Funds $: not verified), then nothing like Review Required anywhere in file and the file is transferred to London on Oct 17 while Notes Generated Nov 11.

The first pages states Eligibility and Security Not Started while Medical and Criminality Pass.

What does refer to IR means?

"IR" is the Immigration Record from the province, which issued you the PNP.

Is this note from the Analyst or an officer?

This note is from Case Processing Agent and Office is CIO
The eligibility takes place in 2 stages. First a case analyst will review the documents and make a recommendation. If there is anything unclear, the case analyst will defer it to the officer. The officer based on the recommendation will make a final determination, and this is when the eligibility will be passed, and your will see it in the status on page 2 of your notes.

As regards the funds, the analyst has just deferred it to the officer.

Thanks.

So, what should I tell an applicant that file is Going Good but Final Review will be done by Officer at London Visa Office? Finally, does Appeared Met Ready for Finalisation a better indication than Review Required?

Thanks once again for your time.
