Hello everyone,

I am posting my progress after a long time here. Today I got my GCMS notes and in it the following: "Information sharing: complete" in the status and I have 4 security related activities. Any idea how long it is going to take now. rest of the details in my signature.

Thanks
Whats the date your SS started? Will be at least 9months+ from this date. People with SS date of March 2017 and even earlier are still stuck in limbo

As you can see, there is no timeline in all of the activities. I don't understand why they didn't put date there. And activity 1 and activity 2 is exactly the same. I understand I'm in security screening and could take a long time. However, no single date made me really frustrated. Could you please share your experience how long should I expect to wait. My AOR is in Feb,2017. It's been 10 months. Thank you so much for your opinion!

This has been the trend so far. So if you have 4 activities, and 3 of them are complete, you are almost done.

Hi, legal falcon, thank you for your response. I have other two questions, 1) how do I tell they are complete, as you can see, they are all blank. 2) Do you mean if there are 3 security screenings blank and 1 security screening not started then I should be done soon? Thank you so much for your help!

Dear... I guess legalfalcon replied previously.. our SS is like urs 3 compete and one “not started” ( 4 activities ). However, it’s so unclear to know if it’s done or not and no one can confirm that. I’ve read somewhere that we MAY have 5 SS activities or even 8. In our case, we have those activities since 3 months. I feel that this SS is a bottomless pit. . Praying for everybody to get good news as soon as possible. Stay strong!

You have passed eligibility and are awaiting security, just give it some time and you will get the PPR.

You can ask your lawyer to get the GCMS notes for you, or alternatively you can request GCMS notes from https://www.getgcms.com
If there are any concerns with your application, they will be recorded in the notes. Apart from this, you can wait it out and see how your application progresses.
