    GCMS shows 'Security Screening' and waiting... - let's gather here!

    There's so many free resources out there that you can explore and tailor it to your specific situation. Even AI tools like Google Gemini and ChatGPT are so helpful and literally can put together a mandamus application for you. I know a lot of people file a writ of mandamus on their own and later...

    GCMS shows 'Security Screening' and waiting... - let's gather here!

    Correct. I was going to wait and see what the GCMS notes from CBSA revealed and would go from there. Thankfully, my MP was able to confirm that the security screening was completed before I received the notes (haven't yet received them actually).

    I know how frustrating this has been for you and your family. Just like many of us here, I've been in the same situation. What I would recommend is that you wait at least until your security screening hits the 2-year mark, and if there's still no progress by then, you put in another ATIP...

    happened to me in March of this year as well, and there'd been no movement afterward until a few weeks ago, when CBSA confirmed that they finally completed their part. Most of the time, when your BGC status flips to N/A that simply means your police clearance certificate has expired. Don't get...

    Thank you for the provided information. I’m well aware of all that tho and was looking to see if there was anyone here that could speak from their own experience writing a demand letter with no lawyer involved.

    Right? I would question a lawyer's qualifications if I was told something like this

    Hi folks! New to this thread. Has anyone here had experience writing a demand/pre-mandamus letter themselves, without a lawyer? If so, I’d really appreciate it if you could share your experience - how complicated it was, the outcome, and anything else that might be helpful or insightful...

    I am also an August 2023 applicant, been in securities since September 2024, and my BGC status also changed to N/A like 5-6 months ago and nothing since. I called IRCC a few weeks ago and was told that my security check was still in progress. I would view this as neutral. One guy on Reddit...

    Funny how they tell over the phone that it's in their best interest to get your application out of the inventory once everything's done, when in reality, that won't happen.

    Have you done anything else after everything was shown as completed (e.g. calling IRCC, contacting your MP)? I just don't understand what the holdup is to finalize your application now.

    I've been under a comprehensive background check for almost 2 years now. No military service, no experience of working for government affiliated orgs and only a moderate travel history. The time it takes can depend on many factors, including something as simple as a person's country of origin...

    I believe that's a myth - handling GCMS notes is in a different team's wheelhouse that has nothing to do with processing officers.
