***February 2021 Outland Spouse Sponsorship***

[Jabya]

I applied based on the procedure in this thread - https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/how-to-order-gcms-notes-step-by-step-process.513893/

these threads also came in handy for me :
1. https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/is-gcms-notes-now-for-5.401196/
2. https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/visa-rejected-gcms-notes.510371/

hope this gives you an idea!

Did you get any response on GCMS notes yet?

Also @armoured is this normal not receiving SA even after 100+ days of AOR?

Good People here, Do we get Sponsor Approvals information in GCMS if I raise webform for spousal PR application? or it just gives you details on PA side of application?

Hello Folks

I'm trying to apply for GCMS and I DONT see any option for

Type of Records: Case Files

Which option should I select from this dropdown? *Which type of records do you wish to request?
1. Immigration/Citizenship Records?
2. Employee Records?

did you apply for GCMS notes?

Did not find the GCMS help threads satisfactory and helpful and some of the sections are updated so instead,
used services of getgcms.com for the peace of mind.

Sorry @Jabya - right, ordering GCMS notes online was kinda confusing. However, I haven't received any update so far on my notes.
Does getgcms.com offer to track?

Rightly said...I'm in the same panic too..been more than 130 days and yet no updates after AOR. Really worried now.
now that VACs are opening in India, not having any progress/ updates in our files makes it more depressing.

I am sure there is a big backlog in the system there. Have patience. I doubt there is a problem.

Does anyone here know anything about VFS Global? It’s the third party that the Canada Visa Application Centres outsource to. It’s been over 3 weeks since I received my Passport Request and sent them the documents, photos, and fees. They have not forwarded them to the New York office. My lawyer calls VFS each day and is getting nowhere. Each department at VFS seems to do one thing (packaging labels, document, emails, etc.) and the departments don’t communicate with each other. Has anyone here dealt with VFS before and knows how to make progress with them? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
