AOR in March 2016 >>>>> Good Luck ALL

[DOD]

I had ordered my first GCMS notes under Express Entry category on April 12th. I rushed into it. After following a few replies on different threads I realized I should have in fact ordered it under Permanent Resident category. I haven't received any response for the April 12th application yet. I don't think it will have the information I want even when it arrives.

I have ordered again under Permanent Resident category on April 23rd. I will have a long wait till I receive the actual GCMS notes I wanted. Can't complain cause I messed it up myself.

did you request it under permanent residency or express entry? omg omg omg i might have made a mistake!

I didn't quite understand your question.

I went to the website https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/welcome.do.
Since I am currently in Canada I ordered under Privacy Act.
Then I chose Department: IRCC>>Category: Individual /corporation present in Canada
Following the address details at the bottom of the page; I entered my email address>>Chose YES to requesting information on my behalf>>Category: Member of the Public>>Delivery Preference: e-mail

thank you for a very detailed response

Yea I ordered under "Permanent Residence". Its no biggie, you can simply order another one filling in the right type of record this time if you selected "Express Entry" previously.

I used them to order mine, got it in 18 days. Although if you have some friends details like their Name, Address and Phone Number, you can order from https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/ for just $5 CAD.

What are GCMS notes? Can outland applicants apply for it too? How does one apply for it? When is a good time to apply for them during your application?

What are GCMS notes? Can outland applicants apply for it too? How does one apply for it? When is a good time to apply for them during your application?

GCMS document basically shows a log of remarks, reviews and actions taken by visa officers on your submitted application to CIC.
Yes you can apply for GCMS notes as an outland applicant; use visafile.info OR gcmsnow.com (costs up to $25)

There is NO fixed rule of law when to apply for GCMS notes, but you should wait a while after submitting your application if you want to see some meaningful progress in it. I know of one applicant who ordered GCMS notes after only 2 weeks and saw a lot of progress on his application, while another applicant ordered it after 1-2 months and no major actions had been taken. So it varies from person to person.

Hope this helps,... goodluck!

Guys I got my AOR on 9 March and quickly passed Medicals. On 13 March I was asked to provide wife's PCC from Singapore that I provided on April 20.

My BG Check is still not started. From the tracker I saw that I was among the 2-3 people who had that status while all others were in progress. I am getting worried. Is this normal ?

Hi All,

I am planning to order GCMS. I am FSW outland. I saw a couple of forum members had posted they can help in getting GCMS since they are from Canada.

how is that idea than paying 25$ to third party? Does GCMS order require personal questions that if shared will affect us?

Let me know if its a good idea.

 

[mumbai5]

Well in that case please can you post a link to the CIC page where it's stated so we can all see & confirm. Cheers.

I am unable to trace it up. You might be right I feel. these days doing lots of reading on GCMS notes. So might have read it somewhere and hence said that.

One week into submitting RCMP and no updates... I am thinking about ordering GCMS now, but also don't want to worry too much if I cannot fully understand it....
