btw, when did you see your Ghost Update ?? in the morning ???

did you call CIC to confirm if background check/ ss is completed ???
I just received email from VO for re-medial check so I guess my security screening finalized. I don’t have GCKey account, I’m checking my application status through ECAS

Hi Guys,

Did any of you order CSIS note? I did order it and It is mentioned that my security check is in process. Does it mean that CSIS part has not finished yet and then they will send my file to CBSA? Or they write this for all applications that are under SS no matter the fille is with CSIS or CBSA?

I just saw your signature and found that you are also a FSW inland applicant just like me. My file is in Sydney, and my SS started on Sep5. I was quite lucky in the initial phase as my medical/criminality/eligibility all passed within the first 4 weeks of my eAOR, but then I was sent to SS. I really hope it can be finalized within 5-6 months.
It seems that our application follows the same pattern. My visa office is Sydney as well and I passed other stages in July.

So your SS started around 1.5 months earlier than mine, then your case may be a good indicator for mine. Please keep me posted if there is any update or if you received PPR. When this happens to you, mine may be around the corner haha..
Sure. You may get sooner than me. Have you ordered GCMS/ CBSA/ CSIS note?

I have ordered and received all of them. My CSIS letter was issued on Oct 31, and it stated that my SS was in progress. My CBSA notes were generated on Oct 11, and they confirmed all but security had passed. SS started on Sept 5. No update since then. My eAOR was Aug 2.
Let see then. Maybe we receive the golden email at the same time :))

Hi friends im writing CBSA note any idea how to write this part : Requests must include sufficient detail to enable an experienced employee of the CBSA, with a reasonable effort, to identify the records that are being requested. Examples include, but are not limited to, time periods, file numbers, client identifiers, file names, report titles, locations (office, port of entry or region/branch), names of individuals, passport numbers, dates of birth (if requesting traveller history or immigration files).

Yah, application number ,UCI number are enough. This is what I did. CBSA note is standard, it’s same GCMS note only difference is security details not hidden
