Hi! Has anybody here requested for the GCMS notes? How long would the electronic notes from the officer usually take?

Usually about 30 days. But a month or two ago there was a big backlog (I think) and some people waited for 50+ days.
I've ordered mine on Oct 7 and are still waiting, hopefully they'll arrive within a week.

Oh wow, I ordered mine just 5 days ago. It did say on the website that they're dealing with a lot of requests. They also did say that the notes I'm asking for can be easily and quickly requested. Hoping yours arrive soon!

Did they send you photo instructions attached to the last email they sent you? I have noticed that they ask for 2 additional pictures when they are about to make the decision. If I was you, I would send those pictures and a copy of passport.
