If you have access to your IRCC account, you can still view the PR profile after AOR by doing these steps: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/how-to-view-the-details-i-submitted-after-ita.468565/post-5868355 or if your consultant has access to your profile, they can do it and send you screenshots.

ordering GCMS notes is a completely separate process from the EE process and in no way will it affect your application. If you’re in Canada, you can order for free at https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/welcome.do?lang=en
On the request page you’ll be given two options whether to request for (1) officer’s notes (this will show the status of your file as well as your PR profile — NOCs entered, language details, rep info, etc) or (2) the documents you submitted at AOR (IRCC will send you a copy of all of your documents in one PDF file). so if you have to order twice via ATIP. You can do this requests on your own as long as you have your UCI (10 digit number) and application number (starts with E) — you can find these info on your BIL.
Thanks for the info. I ordered gcms from getgcms.com. I was told that one should not worry about the third party website's reliability as they are mere mediators who just get the information on our behalf. I just wanted to cross confirm if they can in any way misutilize the information that we provide !

I see. Gcms notes are not password protected when sent, so the third party providers can see the info on your notes.

If you personally know someone residing in Canada, they can order it for you for 5 CAD under access to information act. Same process as going through a third party (e.g., consent form) but cheaper. Plus you have the option to give your email address so the GCMS notes will go directly to your inbox.

This is a great question.

Being a "mere mediator" does not absolve the third party of responsibility of securing and preventing misuse of your personal information.

See this in-depth article https://bit.ly/36Ee1Nb there is potential for misuse of all sorts, data collection, medical insurance, etc...

Moreover, most third parties send the GCMS information as is without password protecting the pdf file which greatly increases the chances of misuse if the information is inadvertently disclosed to someone else.

March also happens to be fraud prevention month in Canada; stay vigilant and checkout these resources https://www.competitionbureau.gc.ca/eic/site/cb-bc.nsf/eng/h_00122.html

Just now called IRCC. My criminality is passed. Eligibility and security not started. VO Sydney
Could i ask how did you call IRCC ??

I am trying the text now app but when i call them it does not give an option to select language just goes on to English. and then when i press 1 to know about my application it just gives an error that the option is invalid, even though they are telling me to press 1 to know the status.

I had a ghost update 5 days ago wanted to know what it was.

My spouse noticed 4 people from Government of Canada checked her Linkedin profile in anonymous mode. What could that mean?

I’m the PA. She’s an accompanying dependent. I haven’t noticed any searches in my LinkedIn.

How can you be sure it was Ircc agents who checked her profile if , as you mentioned, they used anonymous mode ?

In the recent past, has anyone analyzed and found out What the BEST case and WORST case estimate is, in terms of TIME from AOR till getting the PR?

Need these inputs to plan something for next year. My AOR date was Jan 10th and submitted biometrics on 11 Feb.

Immitracker does have a PPR estimator. You have to create an account though. I keyed in your AOR, it says the earliest you can get PPR/COPR is April 6 while worst case is august 16. This is based on the cases uploaded in immitracker though, who knows how accurate it is to the actual scenario. You have to factor in also your local VO. How quickly can they issue COPR after it was approved by Ottawa.
