Guys,

I just got my gcms notes and nothing new after 3 months from the time my Criminality/Eligibility passed. The only new details added were now I see a group name: 1. I have no clue what that mean, but if anyone shares same group name, maybe we can establish a link.

May I know what is a GCMS note?

It has been exactly 5 months since my AOR and there is nothing updated. I am waiting very anxiously and wonder why it is so slow.

I applied for GCMS notes too on November 11, 2017. However, until this date I haven't received any. I am curious with this Pre-Arrival thing. I noticed some of the folks here received that after paying their RPRF and BC changed to Not Applicable. I also have such status with my application but I haven't received that sort of Pre-Arrival letter. Have you received any vpkasbek?

I didn't receive it either, but that could be because I reside in US and there isnt a settlement facility located here. Could it ne the case with you
