Did you order GCMS notes? If so, how long did it take for you to receive them, assuming you did?
CEC - September 2018 AOR
- Thread starter Oily Oyster
- Start date
Yes, I ordered GCMS back in Feb 2019 which took about 32 days and I ordered CBSA notes on April 16th and received them on May 16th, 2019.
I requested the CBSA notes via email, but they sent me a CD instead with the PDF inside. The file is 18.5MB hence this was probably the only way they could format it to send.
Hello Everyone,
My name is Gautam from Indonesia. I hope this message finds you well.
I have submitted my Application on 21 September 2018 for Federal Express Entry. I am yet to receive an outcome for my application.
My problem is that I am unable to login in to the application portal / system since I am using the help of a Migration agent who have their own login credentials that cant be shared.
I have been informed this as the update
Review of Eligibility - We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements
Review of medical results - You passed the medical exam
review of additional documents - We do not need additional documents
Interview - You do not need an interview
Biometrics - We do not need your fingerprints
Background Check - Your application is in Progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check
Final Decision - Your application is in Progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.
I was also adviced that ordering GCMS notes can impact my application by my agent which is why I havent done so.
Any advice? Is my application on the right track or should I be worried?

Ordering GCMS notes do not impact the outcome of your application. Neither does it delay it. It is more likely that it will cause your application to recieve some attention, as each GCMS note request requires your file to be accessed.

No agent/consultant will ask you to request gcms. However, your application looks in good shape.

Thank you for your assistance. Like everyone, I am just worried as it is past the 6-8 month mark of what is usually the standard application processing times.
I will wait until June and if no progress will order GCMS notes

Hi People,
I applied PR through CEC on Sept 07 2018. Got to know that my eligibility is in RR for my arranged employment. No update since MEP. Two days back my medical changed from 'passed' to'you do not need medical' . I contacted call center and the agent said the visa office requested for re accesment because it's expiring next month. Other than that eligibility, criminality, security are passed. I want to know what happens now? Re medical?
Thanks

Just received a ghost update overnight - status changed from "Submitted" to "Application/profile updated". Fingers crossed that PR will come very shortly!
- Ready for Visa email just arrived! thanks to all on this forum and best of luck to all with your PR applicationsHi,
I got a similar email like the one you posted. I am suspicious because , the Annex A, is asking to fill in contact details and has a disclaimer saying that - "Please note that an incorrect mailing address could result in your passport(s) being lost. Do not forget your apartment number and postal code. Our office accepts no responsibility for documents lost in the mail. We do not return passports by regular mail."
Also my CIC account is not updated and the final decision - "Pending" . I have tried send emails to the email ID given in IRCC website - CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca, but havent received in any response yet.
I am worried and have already lost 10 days from the date i received this email. Please help if there is any contact no that I can call to check my application status.
Any help in this regard is much appreciated. Thank you again!
