GCMS notes file

 

 

GCMS (Global Case Management System) is Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC’s) system used to process applications for citizenship and immigration, tourist visas, student visas and visas under any other program. The system contains a detailed record of each applicant’s file, including correspondence from and to IRCC, documents received from the applicant, detailed notes from the officers reviewing the file among others. The GCMS notes are the only accurate way of providing an applicant with the in-depth view of his file on the IRCC system, thus enabling the applicant to be well informed of the status, or take pro-active steps as needed.

The GCMS notes are issued under the Access to Information and Privacy Act (ATIP). ATIP is a federal law and Canadian citizens and/or Permanent residents can get access to information from any government department under this law. If you are not a Citizen or a Permanent Resident, you can order your GCMS notes through GET GCMS. GET GCMS operates from Canada and is in strict compliance with the The Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), keeping your personal information secure. This enables applicants ordering GCMS notes through us to be at ease and not be concerned about identity theft, unlike other fly by night operators who are operating from foreign countries and outside the jurisdiction of Canadian Law. To place a request for GCMS notes we must be authorized by the applicant by signing a consent form. We then place the request under the ATIP and as soon as the GCMS notes are released, the same are transmitted to the applicant via email. Once the consent form has been used to place the request, m it cannot be subsequently used again.

TRACKING THE APPLICATION – The online IRCC system does not accurately inform as to which stage the application is at. And therefore it is important to keep a track of the application, so that corrective steps can be taken or preparation for an interview can be done. To track your application the only accurate way is through the GCMS notes. You can order your GCMS notes online.
