Does anyone have an email address where we can inquire about the overdue GCMS notes? I ordered them from IRCC itself, I did not use any outside service.

Have anyone ordered gcms after getting PR to see the complete workflow?
When does the eligibility review get completed in general?

Has anyone gotten their GCMS notes and have the Security say something else than "Not Started"?

Yes, close enough, the notes were generated just before PPR, you can check this thread to see how the GCMS notes match up to the MyCIC account updates:
http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/gcms-notes-post-ppr-actual-processing-timeline-t403916.0.html

Eligibility is the last step before PPR...during the R10 check, the eligibility is still a recommendation.

It's under security check that takes the longest time, when it's done you will get the PPR mail.

But FOSS check says No History. Doesn't that mean security is cleared?

At the beginning of GCMS notes, there is a due date for "Application Assignment".
Is the usual time to get a decision around?

Nope, there just isn't conclusive evidence that the due date has any meaning. Many many applications go beyond due date or get approved before it.

Does it go beyond due date most of the time? Do some applications get processed well before due date?

Trying to be optimistic. :p

From the notes written, I think you are GOOD... this delay might be due to security check which takes time.. i believe its a matter of time ..

wait for others to comment as well.. Good luck..
