I can see a lot of people are frustrated. Let us not go into that mode. Next one month of holidays and Christmas season. Definitely there wont be much updates. Let us keep cheering each other up and hope new year brings us better news. In the time you are frustrated, think of what other things we can do (Network, read a book or just relax). We will get pr soon, happy holidays guys and keep updating.

Delay in GCMS.
I applied for GCMS notes on October 29th its been 46 days now. I'm inland. This is 2nd time I'm applying for GSMS notes, Last time it took only 15days..
I'm a bit concerned now.. bcz i have not received any emails from ircc informing me about an extension. @legalfalcon is this normal? the last time I spoke to an agent the criminality was still under process, gave my bio on Oct 23rd, as per the agent eligibility and security passed.

Also, anyone else here who has a similar experience?.. Thankyou
You are better off requesting the Gcms Notes next time around from CBSA instead of IRCC and more likely to receive the information on time or have less of a delay compared to IRCC. Same process and cost except that the consent form is different.

Hi All, I called IRCC and talked to an agent. Agent mentioned Eligibility, Security and Criminality also passed. But they are not sure when they will send final confirmation. It was criminality in progress for a long time. Today it was updated.

I am not expert on this but I think it shouldnt matter if you apply for any loan. I know one my friend applied for mortgage when his PR was under process and bought new house. PR procedure doesn't mention that you shouldn't apply for loan. As long as your proof of funds are intact then no issues.
thank you

@legalfalcon I have to ask. You have been helping a lot of people in here. but why don't you help people that have questions other than related to getting gcmc notes? Don't get me wrong, nothing against you here, just curious from seeing your interest and replays.

YEs, as long as your spouse has a valid work permit and in status. Your spouse's work permit is based on your WP, so you may have to renew your spouse's work permit once you get your BOPW.

Do you research on the forum or just this thread, or just this page. Not sure what your assumptions are based on.

FYI: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/thank-you-legalfalcon.408185/


I can only respond to questions where I am tagged or that are on the threads that I follow. I cannot go answering every question. Where I am tagged, I do respond. Also, some of the questions have been answered multiple time by me and other forum members. You can just use the search function on top right to get your answers. If a question is one that has been answered multiple times, I will not respond to it as it can be easily found on the forum by a simple search.

All the best!!

Thanks @legalfalcon Can i apply for spousal work permit renewal along with my BOWP application itself or should i wait for my BOWP to get approved and then apply?

Yes, you can , bit the SOWP cannot be issued unless your BOWP is granted.
