My GCMS notes mention "GCMS/FOSS: No adverse information".
What does it mean? I passed my citizenship test in October 2022 and have been waiting since then. The only remaining item is prohibitions.
FOSS stands for Field Operations Support System - It's a shared DB between CBSA and IRCC
This means, you have no negative entries in your immigration history and you do not have any pending deportation order or immigration violations (e.g. overstay, out of status)
