Need expert's opinion, thanks. Anyone knows if it is possible to do a upfront medical exam for PGP program? There is no clinic in the hometown that we can do the IME, need to travel for biometric and IME. Was thinking to do an upfront medical exam when my dad doing his biometric enrollment. Need advice. thank you so much.
No you cannot do biometrics or medical examination upfront without the request from CIC first.

if we check CIC processing time, PGP will take up to 24 months. However, the case officer needs to make the decision before medical expired. Right?

In most cases, yes. But if medical expires before the decision has been made. Officer will ask for another medical.

Thank you so much for the response. Assume the medical report is submitted today Jul 14th, 2019. Basically, the parents need to land in Canada before or on Jul 14th, 2020 if the PR is granted before Jul 14th, 2020. right? PR single visa expiration date should be Jul 14th, 2020 to ensure the parents must come to Canada before Medical expired.
