You can check these gcms notes

I think somewhere security screening has to be clearly mentioned on the gcms doc(atleast my own understanding)

It could be regular back ground check delays from he countries you have visited earlier.
e.g. in my own case my wife’s bgc was completed in a day, mine has been going on since 26 May. I have had extensive an extensive travel history around 70 odd trips within the Middle East, EU, US and Canada
Security screening is no longer mention on GCMS notes, it is retracted. If the eligibility is passed, and it has been over 2 months, than the likelihood of SS is very high.

I guess I can see on the Notes of Program assistant mentioning something about R10 OK on 12 Apr...
My AoR was 6 Apr

Will that be the R10 passed date ?
It is the date on which the R10 note was generated.

Hello, i have received my GCMS notes 2 weeks back, everything is passed except SECURITY which states NOT STARTED but at the same time i have observed s(15)1 mentioned in my notes section without any blank page/space. i am quite worried and confused that is it the sign of security screening?? My AOR is March 2018 and VO is London. Initially my file was at Ottawa but moved to London VO a month back.

They will always hide the details about security and other sensitive matters and denote this by S.15 or S.21, no need to worry about it

The file is already is in London which is bigger mess imho. I have heard through forum members that London VO takes one hell of a time process each application
Yeah right.... difficult to figure out which is the bigger problem file at London VO or Security Screening.... hope this anxiety and uncertainty end up soon.
