Hi Everyone,
We have ordered the GMCS note which was received yesterday. Any seniors out there whom I can send my note to for some clarifications? Due to all the private informations I do not want to put it here but if a senior is willing to receive my note in a PM, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all and have a blessed day.

My DM showed up on ECAS before MyCIC. Why do you assume your application will be refused? I just received DM on ECAS yesterday and my app was received on Aug 10.

Your application seems to be a whole month before ours, looks like you may have some more waiting to do. Be patient.

Yeah I wouldn't worry. Most of us are August applicants (from your notes I see you are an October applicant?). Most of us have been In-Process since File Transfer in late August/Early September. For you I see that was Mid-November so you might still have another 1-2 more months max to wait. You'll get there!!

Congrats! That's always the most exciting part as it usually is the last step before a DM!

Just got this message in myCIC.

"Court record / Police report: Provide a copy of the original police report or court records
Related to charges on FBI certificate."

So does this mean they want actual court records and not just the FBI certificate on something dating back 12+ years? I've tried calling today but they are always too busy to actually connect me to a person. And also have to somehow manage to get them delivered to me in Canada and then shipped to them within 45 days?

That's a tough one. I imagine they want court records or the police report for whatever is on the FBI certificate so they can see it in detail. Unfortunately yes you'll have to contact the court/police jurisdiction for which the charges were filed and ask them for the documents and ask if it can be expedited for a fee as you need them for immigration purposes and have a 45 day deadline. I think it can be done, act quickly!
