My second ATIP notes just arrived and the only difference I see is ICES request from Vancouver office on June 16. What does that mean for me? Does anyone know?

Have you used your grad or some other degree as proof of English?

Coz ICES request is for International Credential Evaluation Service

Which they use in PR applications for assessment this is the first time i am hearing in citizenship application.

I studied in Canada. So no need for that.
from other threads I gathered it’s a request to CBSA for my travel history.

Can someone please help me decipher this better from my notes? Mine Says the following:

PAPER FILE
Office: Hamilton IRCC
#: CXXXX (my application number)
Location: Grant Review Ready PM03

Application Assignment
Due Date:
Assigned By:
Assigned To:

However when I go to each of the LPP segments, its assigned to RC-8090 (which is the Sydney Office code).

Triage is empty.

1 - Are my next steps done at RC-8090 or Hamilton?
2 - Does the application assignment section being empty mean anything?
3 - Grand Review Ready PM03 means it will be delayed since it needs additional secondary officer review?
4 - Due Date for LPP has been set for January 2024.

You can see my signature, it is stuck for 6 months after my Test. Everything else sees normal.

In my experience due dates mean absolutely nothing.

I also had Grant Review Ready PM03. As far as I know, PM03 is more senior than PM01, so your application may collect dust longer, until it gets to one of them for the review.
For me filing mandamus helped IRCC to find motivation to get a PM03 to review it within a couple months, no idea what would have happened if I just waited.

The assignment section may mean that either it is not assigned, or that the employee who redacted the notes randomly decided that you don't need this information.
I had an agent assigned since February with a due date in April, but there was zero movement on my application until I filed mandamus in June.
So, maybe not having anything in the assignment section means that assignment is not done yet, however, having something in it doesn't mean that the application will be processed any time soon.

I only reached that stage after 19 month of processing though, so I think you timeline is not so bad yet.

I don't think I've ever been assigned to RC-8090 after the test, so no idea about that one.
