Finally, I got my medical request today! I'm April 21. 2016 applicant. It was so tiring to look ECAS and MyCic few times per day. And today, when I wasnt looking, I finally got it! I'm reading to all your posts everyday while I'm drinking my coffee and finally I have something to report lol.
Great news Tyara!

no not yet...sent it to get renewed and it still haven't left Toronto consulate yet because they send the passports to my country in batches so im in the next batch...sucks big time but nothing i can do. however my representative requested more time...although he took forever to do it.
Aww SVG! SLU sends passport applications every week, especially if it is urgent. And if you pay more (CAD$30) they will send it right away. If I were you I would call and explain the urgency. Ask to speak to the CG, if you have to.

Hi guys, for those who are curious about the processes of the London cic office
My husband and I arrived for our appointment. The room was semi dark with only one processing officer. Your name is called you go up to the window with everyone in the room hearing your answers. You are asked a few questions 1. Have you ever been charged of any crimes 2. Have you ever been asked to leave Canada. 3. Do you have dependents that have not been listed on the application. 4. To my husband they asked if he was still in a happy committed relationship. Afterwards the agent chit chatted with us about our jobs and how we met. Asked for our proof of income for each of us (paystubs) then photo ID for the both of us, pictures for PR card, passport. Stamped the passport to say I was landed and then gave me a few pieces of paper to sign which were called the "confirmation of permanent residence". After that he asked if we had any questions, wished us good luck on the marriage and said congratulations you are now a permanent resident of Canada. He also explained how to update sin, apply for health card, not to do any commercial traveling until the PR card came, how residency is maintained. He also explained that if my husband travels with me outside of the country... No days of being absent are counted. Overall it took about 30 mins from waiting to leaving. The Place was next to deserted with one agent and about 3 applicants and their sponsor for the time we were there....

The end
Congratulations scorpiosarevirgos! Thanks for sharing your experience and for the information about spouses travelling together.

Where did you get a medical examiner to have you so soon? I feel like Toronto is so busy it could take me 2 weeks to make an appointment when the time comes lol.
Dominicantiguan, I'm in Calgary. Since I'm working from home, I'm very flexible with appointment times, so I guess that's why I could find it so quickly. Tmw is just Dr and X-rays and Friday is blood tests. Good luck with booking appointment in Toronto, I hope that you will not wait too long! I see that you applied week after me, so I'm guessing that they will send u medical request next week :D

Think like CIC here...

They care less if you support her..if you're married, she can sue that out of you.

They care that she'd return if her application is refused. So, ties home and travel history / proof of past compliance (going home after visits to other countries) will be paramount.
You are right. It makes sense.

Not to sound like a jerk... but they don't know you from anyone else. This is why it may work to your advantage to make the CSQ and application form changes..

Any case, that's my $0.05... best of luck! Hope you land soon!

I also have a question , if anyone can help me on this. Since we want to cancel our representative from our file and we also have to send more proof of relationship which we are planning to send by Case specific enquiry as well as hard copy through courier.So I was wondering whether should we do separate CSE , one for cancellation of representative and other for updating the documents or should we just send a single CSE for ammendment of documents and in that we attach the letter for cancellation of representative as well because someone told me that more CSE means it will slow down the process.Please guide.Thanks.
