Can anyone help me about how can I request my GCMS notes?
Thanks!
Step-by-Step: Requesting Your GCMS Notes
1. Go to the Official ATIP Online Request Portal
This is the Government of Canada’s official site where you submit your request online:
Access the ATIP request form here:
https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/welcome.do
Start your request here
atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca

2. Choose the Right Type of Request
When you start your request:
☆Select that your request is for Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
☆ You will choose either:
• Access to Information (usually if someone in Canada is requesting)
• Privacy Act (if you are the applicant requesting your own personal info)

3. Fill in Your Information
You will be asked to enter:
. Full legal name
. Date of birth
. Address
. Unique Client Identifier (UCI)
. Application number — from your IRCC application
. Email address for delivery of your notes

4. If Someone Else Requests for You
If you are not submitting it yourself:
. You need the Consent Form (IMM 5744)
Download it here: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...ication/application-forms-guides/imm5744.html

Sign it and upload it during the request.
5. Privacy Act requests — which access your own personal info — Free.
6. Submit & Wait for Response
After you submit:
IRCC must respond within about 30 days some times more..
They may send your GCMS notes electronically (PDF) to your email

You may also track your requests using the ATIP Online system once your account is created.

And I also applied on October 2023 and they didn’t request my biometric yet. Is it normal ?

You have to ask that from IRCC. Because NY now you should have completed bio metrics according to my view. I m october 2023 applicant too I did mine 2024 january.

I received eligibility passed 2025 Jan. Both pre arrival and eligibility. After that nothing..
your file has been silent since January 2025, you're around 1+ year now which is longer than normal processing.
Order GCMS notes (to see if security is still in progress)
Submit a Webform inquiry
 
Is there anybody from April 2023 and still waiting P1? I applied GCMS notes two times in the previous year. In January and December. Both were identical, so it means they don’t work on my file at all. During the last year, they did not start background check. It is really frustrating I don’t understand what they are waiting for.
