Experienced users is there any benefit of requesting for gcms notes? Do the notes mention the future test date?

Hi friends,
I’ve received the gcms note. Is it possible to find out from this note whether my application is routine or non-routine?

Read the notes?

Also as a reminder, notes are meant to be used to get an insight into your application if it is taken longer than the average processing times. Processing times are a year (as advertised) but likely 18-24 months so it is pointless getting notes now

An application is called non-routine when it needs deep screening process and this can make the total process time significantly more than one year. Obviously it is not explicitly written in gcms note whether it is routine application or non-routine. I was hopping from the phrases written in screening section of the note we could find that out ...

Hi everyone. I submitted my application on 21 Sep 2020 and I just received my AOR today (19 Apr 2021), stating that IRCC has started processing my application on 12 Feb 2021. I don't have access to edit the spreadsheet yet, so adding in my application progress status here in a comment.

Can you please provide location, Physical Presence Days , App type?
Also, if there is a date in the AOR Letter, can you share that as well?
