Hey so I called CIC today. Was told that my background check is in progress but my medical has not been updated yet. Also the officer is reviewing my request to add my spouse to the application.That's very odd. That seems you're in IP1 without having gone through MEP. You might want to contact IRCC (see my signature) and ask what's up with your medical.
Anybody ever heard of IP1 happening before MEP?
My timeline is as follows
AOR: Dec 21, 2018
1st CSE: Jan 10, 2019 (To add my spouse to application)
2nd CSE: Feb 7, 2019 (To upload documents as instructed by a CIC call centre agent)
MEP: No update yet
IP1: Jan 12, 2019
