I think its best to reach out to MP when we exceed national avg processing time which is 13 months at the moment. How is your gcms notes looking? Did they mention any concerns? For me it says no concerns for everything but still gotta wait for level 2 officer sign off I guess.

Same for me. No flags or concern. Is the 13 months counting starting from AOR or our submission date?
submission date to my knowledge. I wonder why our applications were referred to Pm03 (level 2) if there are no concerns. Any clues?
did you travel a lot too? I was commuting to work (cross border) for over an year so I probably have 200 absences in total. Not sure if that has anything to do with Pm 03 / level 2 escalation.
Hello,
I have a quick question regarding ordering GCMS,
1. For the question “ which act do you to request under?” Which one should I select?
PRIVACY ACT or ACCESS TO INFORMATION ACT
2. For the question “ what specific records are you looking for .?” Which one should I select?
- Application summary: an electronic overview of the application’s current status, including processing notes
Or
- Complete application file: includes the summary report, all submitted documents, supporting materials, and correspondence with IRCC
if anyone can help me with this matter.
Thanks

yes, I go to the US often for business travels. But, in my original application, I submitted the full scan of my passport already.

good luck
got it. I have a feeling too many absences requires level 2 officer sign off. that's probably why its delayed for us.
For requesting ATIP (GCMS) note, I chose privacy act and then application summary, and submitted my request. But I notice it doesn’t required to pay $5 . Is this correct? Because I didn’t pay anything

You will receive an instruction email about 2 weeks before your interview date. If the email says your interview is for identity/document verification, in my case they only checked my IDs and passports. If your application is not stuck under security screening, your LPP will most probably gets marked as complete on tracker a few days after the interview.
Which all documents did you take for the interview? Passport , PR Card , ID Proofs , Anything else?Attended my in-person interview today. It took less than 5 minutes. They checked my ID and the passports I had submitted with my application. They told me they have no concern, however, they're waiting for the security result which is done by a different organization and is out of their control. So they didn't give me any approximate time for when my LPP is going to be marked as complete.
It seems like my application is stuck for now
