Any idea how long does eligibility review take once it has started? Can it go beyond 2 to 3 months also?
As understood after analysing the moderate data on this forum, sometimes background & review of eligibility starts almost together, in this case it will take 3 to 4 months approximately as per current processing trends. However, sometimes review of eligibility starts after 2 or 3 months of background processing then it should be around few weeks, may be 2 to 4 weeks. This is based on my understanding which may be wrong. Regards

Just got my GCMS notes I applied for back in June. No positive outcome. Apparently it has been stuck in "Review Required" since 20th April. For what reason? It doesn't say.

For reference:
Applied - 11April
Biometrics - 19 April
No update since then.

It means your app is pulled for second officer review. Does it mention anywhere the bring forward date or expected due date on the notes?

Yeah, was assigned to agent RC-D50. Due date was 13 May. It is well past that date now.

It means that we can apply for gcms notes while application is in process. If so, feedback received in how many days, please advise?

Yes, you can apply while your application is in process. My GCMS notes came in 3 months. Applied in June, notes came in September.
