Agree. It's best to request GCMS Notes when you receive your AOR. However, sometimes there can be delays in sending out AOR’s and obtaining your GCMS Notes can confirm whether the visa office has started processing the application or not.

For permanent residence (PR) applications, you can order GCMS Notes as soon as the R10 completeness checks stage. R10 refers to Regulation 10 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, and is the phase of the processing of your application where IRCC checks that all the information and documentation is complete. This stage is usually done within 1 month of applying to IRCC. The right time to order GCMS notes for PR applications would be around on the 2nd to 3rd months after applying.

From when processing is on hold? My son's application was updated regarding his medical, 7 or 8 days back
"So we can keep processing applications from people who are able to travel to Canada, we’re temporarily changing how you can apply to visit, work or study in Canada. Until May 19, 2020, there will be a suspension in the processing of some applications, and the application process has changed for visitor visas (including transit visas) eTAs study permits work permits" -
