I have the same timeline as urs..thought of calling CIC, will update you on this..

My ECAS does not say anything about medical passed but GCKey is saying medical passed. Do you see medical passed?

I dont see medical passed on ECAS (stuck on "Medical results have been received."), but on GCkey it shows passed.

eCAS doesn't ever show passed; it just shows when they're received. (Don't ask me why!)

Hello everyone just curious about something,


We got a request to pay for the biometric back on feb 4, and on feb 5 they requested medical. Medical is revived since March 7 but so far nothing on the biometrics???? Any idea how long it will take. I am just stressing out

On what date did you pay for the Biometric and upload the payment receipt?

My wife kept trying to reach cic and succeeded.
The agent told her that our application is still being processed in Mississauga and that the exact details couldnt be shared with her as she's not the sponsor or a rep.

However, the number to reach cpc-m "+1 (888) 242-2100" is not accessible from outside Canada.
So how do i reach them ?

An alternative to anyone outside Canada who needs to make frequent calls to Canadian numbers... you can get unlimited canada calling subscription on skype very cheap which will allow you to dial local numbers in Canada. But you need a decent internet connection since it uses data to make the call and also they can't dial you back.

If you can find one of those numbers that lets you call abroad and only uses your minutes you can call +1 613 944 4000.

Even my application is similar to yours except that my application is still in Sydney. Have called CIC few times over the last 1-2 weeks and all they responded was they aren't sure when my application will be transferred to Mississauga or Delhi office. I hope my application stays within Canada for quicker processing times.

Mine is still in Sydney too apparently....its driving me nuts.
It's suppose to be transferred by now. :S

Or you can fill out the form to be the unpaid representative, it just takes 2-3 days to process.

Medical exam passed in GCKey, not sure when it updated but it was between now and after the 15th. I noticed they do update on weekends so it was probably Saturday.
Also, the office e-mailed me a copy of the chart they sent. They got my weight completely wrong which puts me at a BMI of 33 on the chart!! I'm 5'3" and 125 lbs and no where near that! I guess it doesn't matter since it passed but it confused me greatly, lol. It even has my picture on it which does not match the weight. I'll do a write up of the visit for people searching the forums for the Atlanta panel physician experience.

My ECAS does not say anything about medical passed but GCKey is saying medical passed. Do you see medical passed?

I filed my application with the help of an immigration consultant and he mentioned that he is not able to link my application to GCKey for the last two months, am planning to take authorization so that I can view the GCKey updates directly.

As of now, I have access only to ECAS which shows the medical results have been received (upon calling CIC I found out that medical test has been passed). Does your ECAS show that your file has been transferred to Mississauga or do you see it only in your GCKey?

Let's hope we receive a positive update this week, will keep you posted if I see any changes to my application.
