What are GCMS Notes?
GCMS (Global Case Management System) Notes are the official, internal immigration records kept by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). These notes are created and updated by immigration officers as they process your application. The GCMS file includes:
-
Detailed officer comments and assessments
-
Reasons for approval or refusal
-
Status of your application
-
Background checks and security screening notes
-
Document verification records
-
Internal communications and timelines
Why Should You Order GCMS Notes?
✅ Understand Why You Were Refused
GCMS notes reveal the real, detailed reason(s) for visa refusals—not just the generic wording in refusal letters.
✅ Prepare a Stronger Reapplication
By reviewing officer concerns, you can address each issue specifically in your next application or letter of explanation.
✅ Avoid Repeating Mistakes
Many rejections are due to missing documents, doubts about purpose of visit, or unclear ties. GCMS helps you fix that.
✅ Track Application Progress
If your application is delayed, GCMS notes show exactly what stage it’s at and whether background or security checks are pending.
✅ Legal Transparency
GCMS notes are your right under the Access to Information Act. They are a powerful tool if you intend to appeal or seek legal remedies.
Who Can Request GCMS Notes?
Only Canadian citizens, permanent residents, or someone with legal status in Canada can order GCMS notes on your behalf. If you’re outside Canada, we can request the notes for you through our authorized access.
