How we know that R10 has completed?

Towards the end of your GCMS notes, look for the program assistant notes. There the PA will mention R10 Ok Recommendation: Pass. He will also mention if any documents needs to be reviewed by the Case Analyst.

Thank you! This we can know only when we order GCMS notes right?

Should be fine buddy, I think the VO will just ignore the LOE once he sees that you have letter from HR, which is more than enough.

Hey mate, i am sorry i forgot to add something too, is there a problem to state that the manager when writing the reference letter was trying to follow the content guidlines of the IRCC. I mean the letter is usually custom made and I have mentioned that so that later I explain why he didnt mention the salary in the letter. What worries me is that its misunderstood, specially that some of my duties are very close to the NOC one. What do you think

I found that first by calling IRCC.

Those who have ordered GCMS notes, check Correspondence section. There will be two sub sections "Outgoing" and "Incoming", pay attention to incoming. Each document/information you sent to IRCC will have a separate incoming correspondence.

During the initial(R10) checks these documents are verified by the program assistant. Now towards the end of each document there will be something called "Review Status". The PA based on his assessments will mark the field as either "Checked" or "Review Required". Some may have that field as blank.

Now based on the information I have gathered, Checked means it is recommended pass by the PA and Review Required obviously means the Case Analyst will have to review the document.

In my notes, medicals, Indian PCC, UK PCC, Degrees/diplomas are marked Checked. Client Information as Review Required. Proof of funds and work experience is left blank.

I have passed medicals hence it is marked as checked. The updated date is same as the date I passed medicals.

Now my theory is that I have passed criminality too, however, Program assistant cannot pass criminality. He can only recommend it passed. It will be officially passed by a case analyst. Since my file has not been picked up yet by a case analyst it is still marked as not started.

Client Information here is Letter of Explanation. I mentioned about gift deed in my LOE, hence it's marked as Review Required. Also makes sense, why that field is left blank.

Eventually when the case analyst picks up your file, he will read the notes of the PA and will recommend pass. 90% of the time, the case analyst agrees with the PA.

I have checked with others who have passed criminality and their PCC in incoming correspondence is marked as checked.

So for those who are still waiting for eligibility, criminality and security checks to start. These checks may have already started but are not officially updated This was also confirmed by an IRCC agent, when I asked her the same question why the checks have not started after 5 months. She mentioned it may have begun in the background but they have not updated the file. When the file gets picked up everything can be cleared in 2 days

Hope others who are more knowledgeable on this can provide their inputs

Criminality and eligibility pass dates are generally same because analyst just updates them. Now ques is whether eligibility is assessed by analyst alone or by a department consisting several members and if eligibility starts in background then analyst just updates or carries out all himself

Does anyone know the difference between 'met' and 'recommend pass' in GCMS notes?

As far as I know wen eligibility is assessed at CIO Sydney it shows met and Ottawa mentions Rec. Passed.
But sometimes met case have some minor reviews which are reviewed later by some officer at vo.
Met cases normally take longer than RP cases . Reason is not known

Think it could be bit of both. Some complex cases a department is involved. For example, if foreign work experience is marked as RR, then the file gets transferred to a local VO to carry detailed checks. They even call the company to verify the authenticity of the document.

I read somewhere there are 3 stages

Program Assistant: R10 Ok
Case Analyst: Met
Visa Officer: Recommended Pass.

BGC is for criminality basically and checking interpol database for crime outside country of residence.
Might involve other checks also. Two weeks is the current passing time on average.
