Hello all!

I applied for inland on December 20, 2016. So far all I have received is OWP and change in medical status as passed.
I am worried about not receiving SA as some people say they get it in few months. I am worried.

Should I apply for GCMS notes ?? Will asking for gcms put a negative effect on application ? Or should i wait for SA before applying for GCMS notes ??

Thanks a lot.

No you shouldn't be. No I don't think it will. If it was me, I would call to make sure they have everything they need from you. As long as they do, then I wouldn't worry.

However, by all means, order GCMS notes.

Thank you so much Profiler.
We are so lucky that you are on the forum for 2016 people. Luckily I applied in last few days of 2016.

Any "status" before PR is counted as half days, up to 365 days.

No, probably closer to 1.5 - 2 yrs. For every day before PR, it's counted as a 1/2 day toward citizenship.

If you have 730 days before PR, that will give you the 365 days. Then add your PR time in Canada, and it must total 1095
