Have a feeling i was reading too much into this. 24 hrs now but no Copr. The wait continues.
Thanks, I just wanted to know how long your medical is valid/when it expires
@harish.subramanian03
It does actually. My medical status currently reads: Passed-Expired
They could extend it or ask for new medical. But no movement on it for the last three months.

There was one applicant whose medicals look like they were extended. See below for direct quote.

If you are a temporarily residing in Canada/US and holder of passport from countries whose citizens need a visa to travel to Canada, You wont send your passport to VFS or VAC.
You only have to send your passport to IRCC offices in Canada locations (Ottawa, Calgary, Vancouver and so on...). Theres nothing to do with VFS/VAC locations, least for sending the passports in, if you are living in US/Canada.
From CIO/BRCD
The processing of your application for permanent residence in Canada is almost complete. You must complete the following steps within 30 days in order for our department to issue your Confirmation of Permanent Residence and, if applicable, permanent residence visa. If for any reason you are not able to meet this deadline, please inform us immediately by email to: IRCC.CIO-BRCD.IRCC@cic.gc.ca with details concerning your situation.
STEP 1: UPDATE YOUR APPLICATION
If any of the following conditions apply, you must inform us immediately via email IRCC.CIO-BRCD.IRCC@cic.gc.ca
· Marriage or common-law union, divorce, annulment, legal separation;
· Death of the sponsor, the principal applicant or any accompanying family member;
· Birth or adoption of a child, including grandchildren born to dependent children;
· You, the principal applicant, or any of your family members have been charged or convicted of a criminal offence.
STEP 2: DETERMINE IF YOU NEED TO SUBMIT YOUR PASSPORT(S)
· Determine if you are holder of passport(s) from countries whose citizens need a visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) to travel to Canada, by checking this website:
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/visit-canada/entry-requirements-country.html .
· If you are holder of passport(s) from countries whose citizens need a visa to travel to Canada, you will need to submit the passport for you and for each accompanying family member. To avoid complications with international travel, it is recommended that your passport(s) be valid for at least 6 months. Your passport must have at least two blank pages. If a child is included on your passport, you must have one blank page per accompanying child. Please note that you STILL need to submit the passport even if:
o You have a valid Canadian temporary residence visa.
o You are a permanent resident of the U.S.A AND holder of passport from countries whose citizens need a visa to travel to Canada.
· If you are holder of passport(s) from countries whose citizens need an eTA to travel to Canada or a holder of passport(s) from the United States, you will need to submit one photocopy of the photo page and any pages containing amendments of the passport for you and for each accompanying family member. Please do not send your original passport(s). Your passport(s) should be valid for at least 6 months.
If you are currently residing in Canada and you intend to travel by air to another country prior to becoming a permanent resident, you will be required to apply and obtain an eTA prior to boarding.
***Please note that Confirmation of Permanent Residence and permanent residence visas cannot be issued to holders of Diplomatic, Official or Military passports. You must have an ordinary passport.***
STEP 3: PREPARE YOUR DOCUMENTS
1. Passport(s) OR photocopy(ies) of passport(s), as explained in Step 2.
2. Two (2) photos of yourself and of each accompanying family member. See our specifications at www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/pdf/5445EB-e.pdf
3. One pre-paid return envelope so that we can return your passport(s) and Confirmation of Permanent Residence documents. See Step 4 for instructions regarding the return envelope.
IRCC.CIO-BRCD.IRCC@cic.gc.ca so that we can send you instructions for submitting your documents to a visa office which is the most convenient for you. Please note that our office will not return passports to an address outside North America.
· If you have a mailing address in Canada:
- The pre-paid Xpresspost envelope must be from Canada Post. Please note that we will not return documents to a Canadian address via any other courier.

Yeah! But this wasn’t much helpful though. When I called IRCC, they said I have to wait for further instructions!
At the moment I cannot submit the passport to the address mentioned below

If I may ask (unless it is a personal concern), why cannot you submit to the above address?
I cannot risk losing or getting my passport stuck at some place!
The IRCC agent over the phone clearly mentioned do not submit your passport yet, cuz the IRCC offices are still closed.
Yes the office is still closed and if I send my passport it will not be returned until the offices are opened at full capacity!
And the agent also told me that I will receive new instructions on how to submit the passport!
