How can I obtain my GCMS please?
I saved these links from another user on here; I haven't actually obtained GCMS notes myself.

Where to order GCMS notes ?

Congratulations justrajdeep! How long did the test and interview take? Was it more than 2 hours?
Hi

Sorry for the late reply. The actual interview was hardly 15 mins.

The whole process(Test+form fill+wait+interview was like 2 hours.

For anyone that has passport stamps that aren’t in English, I really suggest you translate them before you go. I would’ve been done by now if I had done that. :confused:

Does it have to be an official notarized translation or would they just take your word for it?

Holy moly! That seems excessive...I have like tons of those, and some aren't even clearly visible lol
I don’t think they ask everyone. I guess it all depends on luck lol. I still wish I had done it before I went because it would have saved me time and effort. Also, I had some that weren’t completely visible as well but the translator told me they deal with these cases a lot. I sent them my previous flight confirmation emails as well and that helped them when translating ones that they couldn’t completely make out.

Well, good luck to you then, hopefully that won't slow you down by much!
