understanding GCMS notes

[Kanikananda]

@legalfalcon

am AOR 5th Aug FSW applicant. I have been at NA2 for over 4 months now we got an ADR request rite in the first month for a representative form which was uploaded with in 4 days of the request further on we raised a CSE as our bank balance were not on bank letter heads so we shared stamped bank balance statements on bank letter heads
All this was in the last week of August. Post that till 8th Nov our ADR Status was "your documents have been uploaded " and on 8 Th Nov the status changed to "We need more documents we will send you a message with more details" adding an important point here our gcms notes were generated on 6th Nov so initially we thought the change in ADR status is because of the GCMS notes but to our surprise the status has been same for over a month now and this is making us worried.Please advice if we should mail NDVO or CIC and ask them if there is anything we have missed on while submitting the documents or we should just wait for them to contact us.

Also in my GCMS notes against the A11.2 decision ,FSW Minimum requirement , selection criteria FSW points they have written review required . and going with the discussion threads I have read Cases with Review Required have longer processing timelines than usual ... and review required against so many parameters here is making me really worried .

hi
Can someone please help me understand why do some pages on my GCMS notes have S.15(1) on the right side top corner? What does it mean?
Is it Security Screening?
There is no mention of security screening anywhere on the notes.

Under Assessments section

@legalfalcon expert advice please

Some information is retracted due to security or other concerns. To read on s15 and s16 what what it means see - https://www.getgcms.com/blog/s15-s16-top-right-gcms-denote/

Thais is absolutely incorrect. All GCMS notes have some information which is retracted and it does not mean SS. If you do not know the right info, please do not provide inaccurate information and unnecessarily create panic for others.

Most application are processed within 6 months or less. The 6 months processing time starts when the R10 is passed. Since your AoR is August 05, and you have met the Eligibility A11.2, I do not see any delay. Just be patient and soon you will see progress.

Hi @legalfalcon,

Thanks for your great efforts in helping us out here. Since many refer to you regarding their GCMS notes, did you find anything like the following from the notes you saw:

• The phrase 'Security Screening' in sub-activities under the Activities section of someone who got PPR within the 6 months time?

Many thanks!

I never said that "I know this". I did refer that I had " read over forum here". I just said what I have read. I will never say anything from my imagination , just trying to help.

Most GCMS notes will has Security Screening. In total there are 4 such sub activities. YEs, many applicants who get PPR with 6 months also see it.

Dear @legalfalcon , thank you very much for your efforts helping others.
I had a question, I received my notes and after reading it I wanted to ask... on the day of ip2, I see that there is something under NOTES with the label Adm( rest is eradicated).. then under activities starting from almost( activity 10) shows my name, uci and the word security in the activity type, then almost activities number 10, 9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2 (some for me, some for secondary applicant) show the following sequence
Activity: (number)
Created date:
created by:
updated date:
updated by:
uci: written
name: written
no dates, no activity type and nothing at all, under admissibility, there is also the word security my name and UCI
any insights of what is actually going on because from what I see I find that people usually have 3 or something security activities.

@legalfalcon

Notes 12:

At the end of the notes it states "ready to finalize"

Can anyone give some details where my file is right now and what's actually happening. I raised 2 CSE. I was told in both that my file requires additional verification and that it's impossible to give approipriate processing time

I think there is some confusion as per GCMS received i have review required against A11.2 post which my file was transferred to NDVO.

The eligibility is done in 2-3 stages. First an analyst will review and make a determination. It can be passed or review required. IF it is review required, then see the corresponding note and find is there are any concerns. If no concerns, then the officer or the officer at the LVO will make a final determination and your eligibility will be passed. Usually the LVO officers are given the final word due to their specialized training in the country.
