@legalfalcon,
My AOR is 13 Apr, Eligibilit passed, Criminality - in progress and security not started. Waiting for long time.
I have got GCMS Notes yesterday, in the Notes Section for Biometric it is written as Fingerprint: dry skin. what does this mean?
who put that note ? officier or the place you went to give biometrics
Any FSW Outland applicant with all stages passed but final approval pending?

In some cases the fingerprints may not be accurately captured due to a skin condition, that is noted in the GCMS notes, like in your case, "dry skin." It will depend on the visa officer to use the current fingerprints or request new ones from you.
The officer must process the application by using the available biometric information and the results of the fingerprint search.
If the IRCC officer decides to repeat the biometrics collection session, once the temporary issue is resolved, then the officer must do the following:
- ask the applicant to resubmit full or partial biometrics, as stated on the applicant’s BIL (done at the IRCC inland office, a VAC, select Service Canada locations, select GAC locations or U.S. ASCs, if warranted)
- exempt the applicant from the payment of a new biometric fee

Stuck at the level of security since June 30
Someone I know got COPR today with July AOR and I just passed the 10 month mark - security not even started (both are CEC Inland). If I don’t laugh, I will cry.
Please raise a webform and ask them to pass note to officer.

Can you actually do that. And if yes, can you ask officer to look into file? I don’t think so

was wondering the same - not sure how much of a difference it would make to the processing time (if at all) since many of us in this thread are stuck at the same stage.

Yes expired in the first week of nov. gave bio in oct.eligibility passed by officer in Aug ..since then no one touched file yet. They say standard reply, wait for an officer to view your file and then they will send data to local medical officer for opinion..rest all you need to wait..was so fed up, like stopped calling Ircc or looking at forums from Jan last week, started viewing this week again
I am wondering how IRCC is planning to deal with backlog considering 27k new ITAs.
True, They are just make a draw and the point system is unfair to the current applicants who were trying to build up points hardly to come out of the pool. Now, you just need few point that is it.
