Hello house!
Has any one received GCMS note lately within a fine frame of 35days schedule? My spouse and I applied for GCMS note on the 1st of June, and till now we are yet to get feedback. Mailed them couple of times and got this;

“Hello, ATIP has now increased its timeline to 45 days due to COVID-19. We have sent a reminder to them to expedite your order. Unfortunately, we cannot control their timeline and will follow up”

It’s almost 70 days now.

Mailed Acra VO to enquire about the app processing and they replied this;

“Dear Sir / Madam,
Currently, your file is: Under review. No further action is required on your part at this time.”

please what does this mean in the scheme of things?

Hello everyone!
I need advice
I applied for PR In November 2020, as my husband is a Permanent Resident.
I declared USA tourist visa rejection, However, now they are asking me for refusal letter. I have the appointment letter but I don’t have the refusal letter. Is there any way to get refusal letter? What should I do please advice.

@legalfalcon sir why only one VO( Sydney) is issuing ppr while all others are completely silent? Why they are completely ignoring files with approved status in GCMS notes? They aren’t even touching these files again.

@legalfalcon sir I have a small query about applications with approved status in GCMS notes. Are these application considered like expired COPR as COPR is generated in notes and gets expired without it being issued to an applicant?

Each VO has its priorities. Also, you have to understand that economic immigration is one of the many immigration programs administered by IRCC. Other programs include sponsorship applications, TRVs (work, study, visit etc.) and refugees etc.

A few months ago many applications that were approved in GCMS were not send COPRs since there were border restrictions. If your COPR is valid, then you may still get one. If it has expired, your application will be re-opened and after all checks are done, a new COPR will be generated.

Thank you so much @legalfalcon sir for sharing information. Just one more question, once file is reopened, do we have to go through all the lengthy process again including eligibility?

Hi @legalfalcon

we have an express entry file submitted on October 2019- all passed except security which has not been started yet!! My husband is main applicant-

We applied for postdoc work permit visa July 2021- main applicant is me- from Iran

I got 3 updates and asked for documents to be provided on august 10th and then eligibility check changed to reviewing! But nothing afterward!

How do you think they will process and for how long? Will we have background check which may take long time?

it seems that work permit visa is not in their priority as last two weeks there was a huge number of owp rejection!

please advise- i really need your professiona

No, if the file was closed and had to be reopened to update medicals or any other documents, eligibility usually is not re-done.

Once the final checks are done to make sure that all documents are valid and not expired.

Hi again

thanks- so you even do not have any general idea?
I meant based on your experience you may have some ideas about these files- the EE and work permit
