Is this letter something everyone gets? I'm really confused about exactly what the point of it is.



As far as I can tell, there is no action necessary? I guess I can just send them our current address via IRCC webform...?

Is this normal?

This is not normal/not something everyone gets. This is an Additional Document Request where they are asking you to submit Biometrics and Medical results because they haven't received them. If you've done them already and see them completed in GC key or tracker, call IRCC and let them know

That's why this letter is so odd. Of course she hasn't done biometrics or medical. She's actually on her way to Seattle for her medical right now (Requested Dec 5, and appointment made immediately for December 18). As for biometrics... they only requested biometrics yesterday (Dec 17) with the next available appointment scheduled for January 15th.

So I don't really understand why they would be asking about these things already. And then the address thing was kind of weird - the address is on the application? I don't know. I guess I'll send a message via webform to let them know that we were unable to get a next-day appointment for biometrics (sarcasm).

Personally my interpretation was that the requesting confirmation of address was the main point, and the bio/medicals part was boilerplate.

Why? I don't know.

I pretty much read it the same way. I have no idea why they’d be asking for that. But whatever I guess. Government doing stupid things is nothing new! I’ll send them a message, I guess.

We sent a message with our address, and then also dates that medical exam and biometrics were requested, and dates that both of those will be completed.
