gcms system affected processing times at buffalo??

Further updates--
Global Case Management System (GCMS)

The GCMS project is now in its second phase, focusing on visa offices overseas, where the vast majority of applicants first seek CIC services.

In June 2010, the first visa office overseas will begin using the new version of GCMS. Once fully implemented in March 2011, GCMS will provide a single integrated processing capability for all citizenship and overseas immigration applications.

Most of Buffalo immigration officers (IO) were busy in training for this new system that is why in 2010 second half application went slow.

Post Mar 2011, application will move faster.

They do have to train people to use GCMS, while training they are not working on files..

It was observed that it did slowdown processing in Delhi for few months as the staff were to be trained and then they were getting used to. It being a much more comprehensive and versatile system, needs more details to be entered.

Delhi VO seems to be back on track now.
