understanding GCMS notes

[damien86]

does anyone know if ordering GCMS notes is something frustrating for the officers? do they have to go through extra work because applicant ordered the notes? or is it a simple electronically generated procedure?

This is perfect time to order GCMS notes,
No, you are not violating any law by ordering notes, plenty of applicants have ordered the notes more than 2,3 times.

So don't worry.

what could be the difference between reviewing the application and processing the application? any ideas ? can we find any explanation of these stages in gcms notes?

To those who've ordered and received GCMS notes, what checks do they report on? Is is just police checks, etc, or do they check credit history in all countries you've lived in?

Also, do you know if they call every single employer or just your current one?

I got my notes yesterday.
For Criminality - they did based on PCC that I submitted + RCMP + partner - USA.
Security still shows not started after 3 months of AOR so not clear what they will check.
For sure as I wrote in another forum , there is point recalculation per category for example FSW for me that is different from CRS we get for EE.

You'll need to follow Remarks and activity sections of the notes to follow. They are descriptive and have a record when you updated any element in your file or they added comments/ updated.

Thats the last few pages.

Hi @ankan, can you please explain what you mean by point recaclulation per category that is different from CRS. Are you referring to the 67 points for FSW?

I assume so. I saw my FSW score around 80 which was also part of the agent remarks.

Ok thank you for the tip. Can you please state your timeline so I also have a rough idea of when to order GCMS notes. It's so frustrating and from what people are saying I'm in for a very long wait.
