Nope. Not this time! Apparently nothing has changed! I called them and they say said criminality still in progress and security not started. Maybe someone just took a look on our profile and didn't do anything yet. I sent a WebForm a week ago asking for some help which I had an answer yesterday from a agent saying they would raise my concerns to the visa office. Maybe thats all what this is about. And life moves on!

Ahhh well hopefully it will spur the now to finish up the application. Also I have a feeling there is something going on with mine currently as today I saw on my Linkedln that my profile was viewed by somebody working for the Canadian Government.

Hello Everyone,

I'm a new member here. CEC Inland September 2018.

I got my AOR on September 7, 2018. Passed medical exam about 2-3 weeks after. Since then I got no updates. The last time he sent me the screenshot of my application and it's still processing (it says my application is taking longer than request).

I'm using the lawyer but it's a pain trying to reach him for the past 2 weeks.

I've just heard about the GCMS Notes. Where do you order them? I search online and found the getgcms.com website - which I am not sure if I should trust because it's not the government website.

Also if I have using the representative, can I order it myself? Also, I have a question about my UCI number. Where do I find my UCI? On my AOR there is an application number, on my medical test it's the UMI. Should it be the same with my UCI number on the work permit?

Thanks in advance.

Yes you can order GCMS for yourself. It's safe. Read details here on how to do it : https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/how-to-order-gcms-notes-step-by-step-process.513893/

And yes you always have one UCI. The one on your WP is the one.

You can also have an option to cancel your representative, Read CIC Website - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigration-citizenship-representative/change-cancel.html

It says review required for eligibility. My case analyst had some doubts with my work experience. This happened way before in December 2018 and they haven't asked me for any additional documents since then. I came to knew it from my GCMS note. don't know why they are not asking any ADR. anyways i submitted and updated reference letter from my employer via webform. CIC call agent confirmed that they received the doc. My status remains unchanged for months and my application seems to be inactive. They told me that my application is at CPC sydney Novascotia. Call agent replied that everything good so far and they do not need any further documents from me. All I need is to WAIT!!.. I am ready to wait if I could atleast see a slightest progress in my app. My work permit is expiring this August 2019. So I am freaking out. Please some one help me with your guidance. My CIC profile says

If you already sent the new documents to help your case, now you just need to wait. I am completing 8 months this week too. Please be aware you should get a BOWP (Bridging work permit). I applied for mine a month ago since my permit was also expiring in August 2019.

My status is exactly the same as yours and it is been reviewed by the Sydney, NS office as well. I am very concerned about it. It looks like they are very busy and delayed with the applications. I am a Dec AOR, but already complaining about the timeframe...I don't know why my application is there... :confused:

Does anyone know how long background check takes? I’m talking about the security part not the criminality one. My criminality and eligibility are passed. On March 2nd, my GCMS notes said my security wasn’t started yet. It’s been 2.5 months since, so I’m wondering if that’s a normal duration...

@vis14ndreamz - Exact same situation as yours except that I haven't even received response for my GCMS notes which was requested on 1st April. I submitted one more request last week but I dont even expect any response from them since I haven't received response from the one on 1st April. Unfortunately no update in the profile either. Called CIC agent on 5th May and she said she will put some comments over file which will indicate that I called up and asked about status. After this comment is put up, I can check back again after a month to check with them again.

Moreover, sent a CSE through web form and they responded that "it was identified that you had a conversation with one of our agent recently and hence request you to check with us after one month". In short, no update on file, no update over phone and no response to GCMS notes too. :( My status is exactly the same since January 22nd. (Eligibility in review and Security yet to started)

It’s really sad that they are not giving us any updates. Are you inland. Try calling gcms. My WP is also expiring this August.

Did you order through getgcms.com. Then try this number + 1 (905) 535-1451. Did you say that your WP got approved. So have you met the eligibility. I thought you’re eligibility is under review like mine. How long it took you to get your WP.
