You do realise that Medicals expire exactly one year from the date you had the tests done, not one year from the date it showed passed on your account.
I learned this from one of the threads here. Also, I noticed this from my own application. My medical status changed to "Not needed" on 19th December. And that's exactly one year after I had the test done. Meanwhile, on my profile, I passed the Medicals on 24th January 2020.
I'm
I'm really not sure about the time. But per IRCC guidelines, your Medicals have to have at least 6 validity for you to be admissible into Canada. And I've read some people post that theirs were extended for up to 6 months and above.
I think the one year validity is sometime between when you had the test done and when it reflects in your account. This will be exactly the date when the test is transmitted from the panel physician to IRCC.
In your case, it may have been transmitted on the same day it was done.
In my case, I did the test Feb 7, passed it Feb 19 as per account. But it expires Feb 15 as per GCMS notes. So I think it was transmitted on Feb 15.
Hello. Pls has anyone travelled to Canada from Nigeria in 2021 with COPR dated after March 2019 and no authorisation letter during this lockdown?
I am also Alberta, submitted my passport December 19.. Hopefully it comes out soon because i need my passport for some official travel.
The year is looking great already...thank you.
Got my first meds done 19th Feb, 2020 and passed on the 3rd of March. However, according to GCMS notes, it's billed to expire on the 19th Feb 2021.
The new meds was passed yesterday. I submitted Schedule 4 too on the 17th of Nov 2020. Sent a mail to Hong Kong and Accra on the 18th of Dec enquiring about my app status. HK responded on the 24th and asked me to await further instructions. Shortly after, I got the remed request.
Now waiting for the final approval.
I’m in the same shoes. Submitted 24th December, vfs submitted 29th. I’m hoping it comes out at the end of the month. I have a trip February 12th
No...Accra is still primary VO while Hong Kong is Secondary office now.
Used to be CIO but most files in Accra were moved to HK sometime in Oct 2020 for further processing.
From my last GCMS notes in Nov, my file was moved to HK Oct 14th.
People have been sending them emails and getting real time updates. It seems they process and approve and Accra issues PPR.
@Joenelly, which email address did you use for Hong Kong VO?
