Sorry didn't mean you should have mentioned to the CIC. I meant did you mention it on forum. I remember it vaguely.

From what I have read on the forum is that .. redaction in GCMS notes may mean you are in Security Screening. And people suggest ordering CBSA notes to know more. Are you from middle eastern country? or have spent significant time in any of those countries?

No, I didn't mention it on the forum. I have also read about the SS and the idea of ordering CBSA notes. I am neither from the middle east nor have I visited there. I have just 2 travels (no illegal stay) and don't know why they redacted some pages......anyways, I believe God knows best.

Then in that case it is definitely surprising and not in a good way. But hopefully things will turn out to be good in this week or next week. My gut says we should PPR for all of you April folks by end of this month.

Did you order notes? If your notes show that your proofs were accepted than there is nothing to be worried about.

Yes i applied for notes on Oct 12, will post them here and let you know as soon as i hear from them

Ordered the GCMS notes today. Let's see what comes out of it in a month or so

The cases from June keep rising. There are at least 3 more from June not in this list. I gave them the link but they seem disinterested to join on this thread so haven't added those cases.

But basically this means that we definitely have more cases in May and July.

All May, July and August candidates if you are active on those threads let people know that they should be ordering GCMS notes ASAP. If someone is at Montreal and have a case that they need to provide additional documentation it is much better to do it proactively. This office won't communicate till very late in month 6.

 

[bazingaaa]

Have you ordered GCMS notes? If not, then do it asap

Ordered GCMS notes last week. Hopefully I will have a better idea of what is happening once I receive it.

Ok great. Do share your findings once you receive notes.

Definitely, based on what I am reading here I guess June cases should see progress late November or early December

Yes anything before 5.5 months ... one should consider it pure luck. But the issue with Montreal is that they wont even send ADR before month 6. And that is not an ideal situation. So it is better to order GCMS notes just to be sure you are not required to provide any more documentation.

That is just aweful of them to do that..clearly they don't care
