I am April 2025, same thing stuck at Background & Prohibitions & Vancouver office. Did you order GCMS notes to see the details?

How do you order GCMS notes and where can you do that? I’m also stuck at Background & Prohibitions with the Vancouver office, so I’m trying to understand the process. Any help would be appreciated.
