Hi guys. I had answered the following to the "have you ever been denied any visa" type question:

This is exactly what it sounds like. I was denied a visa because I forgot to bring some document to the embassy. I was not given my passport back and was told that if I emailed the missing documents I'd have it mailed back to me with the visa stamped on it (which I did and the visa was issued and the same visa is visible on the passport copy that I submitted with the application) but however I was given a paper saying that the result of that interview constituted a visa denial. Even though that paper was just a form letter type deal with nothing filled in except one box checked for what was missing (and the officer's signature which was basically an x shape) I answered that question "yes" for the sake of not purposefully omitting any information out of my express entry application.

Then on my GCMS notes I saw this;

The GCMS notes were generated June 1st so this is the last entry and it ends here. Other notes indicate that I passed security, eligibility and employment verification. Is this vague answer why I'm being held up? (I'm 5 and a half months in over my AOR date and people have received PRs in that time from London visa office) If thats the case which one of the following should I go with?

(a) do nothing stop freaking out and just wait since it says "no particular concerns" at the end
(b) write to London visa office that I saw the GCMS entry and would like to give a more verbose explanation about what kind of idiot forgets to bring proper documents to a visa interview
(c) order a second round of GCMS notes and proceed accordingly

Thanks for the answers!..
 
I'd focus on the "No particular concerns". When he says "No details provided", it's possible that he's saying you haven't given an LOE for the entire section - or maybe he means that Canada checked with the US about your visa and they didn't provide any detail on the subject, i.e you're all good.

I'm speculating, but again, the fact that he has no concerns is a positive sign - in my opinion.

As to what you should do - wait a few weeks to go past the six month mark, and then try contacting CIC.

Thanks for the reply. Do you think I should mention that I saw my GCMS notes and my writing is basically in response to it, or does it sound a bit creepy and sketch.
