Hey… any news about AOR from Aug applications?

This is from August 2025 (more than a year ago). Are you asking for August 2025 or 2026?

Is it worth getting GCMS notes? What did you choose?

Notes will show what exactly is happening, and you can see the actual remarks by the case officer, so that you know the reason for delays or any potential concerns.

it will take 30days or more for notes.

My application is straightforward, with no complications, yet it has been pending for more than 15 months. I'm curious to understand what could be causing such a delay.

A lot of the information is redacted and if stuck in security/prohibition, you won't get much information at all.
