    My notes say the same, please let me know if you get any updates, it’s means the file is ready for review by a senior officer.

    Hi any updates? I have the same Grant Review Ready PM03 comment in my GCMS notes.

    GCMS notes say 'I do not appear to meet physical presence requirement'. Referred to PS for review/decision. What to do now?

    Will keep you posted, best of luck with your app!

    I got my GCMS notes too and they have the comment about the PM03 review which means the process will take longer than usual. In my case they sent it to the senior officer to verify physical presence since I also used non-PR days. Did a quick search and it seems like the majority of files with...

    GCMS notes say 'I do not appear to meet physical presence requirement'. Referred to PS for review/decision. What to do now?

    Coincidentally I got my GCMS notes today. My file is marked as ‘Grant Ready PM03’ at the Vancouver office which means it’s awaiting the review of a senior officer. I suspect this entire process will take longer than usual and it’s a non-routine file because of the NPR. What worked for my...

    GCMS notes say 'I do not appear to meet physical presence requirement'. Referred to PS for review/decision. What to do now?

    Hi. I received my test invite on September 26, gave the test of Oct 4 and it was marked completed two days later. No LPP updates, my GCMS notes say the file is in level 2 review which I believe it because of the NPR days.

    I’ve been scheduled for the online citizenship test starting Sept 26, but I haven’t received the official email with instructions yet (I’ve checked spam/junk). Should I keep waiting, or is this the right time to send a web form/call IRCC? For those who’ve taken it, when did your test email...

    GCMS notes say 'I do not appear to meet physical presence requirement'. Referred to PS for review/decision. What to do now?

    My application was outland. I was on a visitor visa and then a visitor record. I was never out of status before I became a PR. I’m not sure if I should submit a LOE. Most likely I’ll wait for IRCC to ask me for additional info. I’m not bothered about how long this will take anymore. Appreciate...

    GCMS notes say 'I do not appear to meet physical presence requirement'. Referred to PS for review/decision. What to do now?

    Thank you for the detailed response. I have all the proof of my pre-PR days. I was here as a visitor during COVID-19. They stamped my passport when I entered Canada, and I didn't set foot outside Canada until I became a PR. I was living with my husband, who is a Canadian citizen, and waiting...

    GCMS notes say 'I do not appear to meet physical presence requirement'. Referred to PS for review/decision. What to do now?

    I applied for citizenship in March 2025 and got my AOR in April 2025. By June 2025, my background check was cleared. Since then, I haven’t had a test invite, even though people who applied around the same time as me are already at the oath stage. I ordered my GCMS notes to see what was...

    Still Waiting for Test 12+ Months after Citizenship Application

    Thanks so much for replying. I see in your signature that you filed an urgent processing request, on what grounds did you do that? No I haven’t informed IRCC about working abroad. It’s a temporary contract and I will return at some point in the next few years. I have given them a Canadian...

    I thought so too, but that's not the case. BG is the most common hold-up but not the only one.

    Still Waiting for Test 12+ Months after Citizenship Application

    Hi, just wondering when you ended up getting your citizenship? I’m in a similar situation, currently working abroad and IRCC seems to have put my file on hold since I don’t have a test invite and no answers when I call them up. What actions did you take to move your file?

    March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    Yep, most probably. Will order GCMS notes and forget about this application for the next 6 months.

    March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    I called IRCC today to ask why I haven’t received a test invite yet, even though my background check shows as completed. They told me that my security screening is still in progress. But isn’t security screening part of the background check? Why would the background check be marked complete if...

    Anyone here with a non-routine application? Wondering if IRCC confirms this over the call.

    Were you exempt from the test? How is it possible that you never got a test invite and went straight to oath? Congratulations though! :)
