Hi, My deadline is 25 May, 2019. Do you recommend to order GCMS notes now? My file is in Rome since 26 of July 2018
Hi,
By deadline do you mean your medicals will expire on the 25.05.2019?
In any case you file has been in Rome for quiet some time now.... if you have never ordered GCMS notes I would definitly get them now just to see what is going on with your case file.
However, if I were you I would prepare myself for a request to re-do the medicals as even if you recieve a PPR now it will be cutting it pretty short.
Best of luck!
But I read it takes so long to get the GCMS notes. Why to re do the medicals? I did it on July. We wrote to Embassy of Canada Rome, they said it is currently to be processed. What do you mean: it will be cutting off it pretty short
Do you have anyone in Canada who can order the GCMS notes for you? If you order from Canada it takes 1 month or less. Literally anyone can do it for you and it only costs 5 CAD i I think.
You took your medicals in July 2018? So they will expire in July 2019, which means if the Rome Visa office will act quickly you will still have time to get PPR, COPR, book flights etc.
I said cutting it short because I thought your medicals will expire in May 2019, which would not give you much time to do all the things above.
Just to add when I ordered my GCMS notes it showed that my file was approved 1 month before I ordered the notes. I then emailed the Rome Visa office about it and literally the next day they sent me a PPR request.
I am not sure if it is all connected, but it did seem like a big coincidence.
My husband lives in Canada. He applied. I did the medical exams on 9th of July 2018. On 26th of July I received AOR, my file was in Rome. Since that time nothing changed. My husband wrote to Canada embassy in Rome (on 16March). They replied 3days later and said our file is currently in the queue to be processed/being processed. On GCKEY is: we are reviewing if you meet the eligibility criteria. Background: still in progress... it came out soooooo frustrating. As I read the GCMS notes takes time, I thought it would not be helpful. I do not know what to do
You have nothing to lose by ordering the GCMS notes. Take it from my experience. They are very detailed and at least you will know what is happening with your file. If I were you I would just order them and if you recieve an update in the meantime, so be it. I know how frastraing the wait can be. It took me almost 4 years to get my COPR

I am not sure. Someone did it for me from Canada. I did not even try to do it myself, because I thought it would not let me.
I just assumed that it depends on the IP address or the address or the credit card has to be from a Candian bank.
But I guess if you managed to do order it is fine. You just need to wait up to 30 days now and look for the report in your email.
