HI Everyone,
The Medical is going to expire in Feb now, as this was done last year Feb by my parents.
Is there any update, how are they going to handle this situation? or my parents has to go through Medical again? I am sure there are others in similar situation. Please let me know how are they handling it.
Thankyou in advance!

Hi Everyone,

Congrats to those who already got their applications through. My parents had completed their biometric last Nov 2020 and my application currently says under "Background review" for last couple of months. Medical not needed as they went through it at the time of supervisa application i guess.

Does anyone knows what the avg timelines would look like from here? Pls help as i've to plan for their move which might be tricky considering all that's going on around. Appreciate the help. Thanks!!

Also, posting timelines of my parents application if can add it to the tracker pls.

thanks for providing your info. i have added you to the tracker. Could you tell me your parents country of citizenship, your province, when you received your AOR and you local visa office that is processing your application? While we have no clear line of sight on timelines, some of this info will help determine processing times based on other applicants.

Do you know roughly how long it take after medical submission to see "medical passed" on ECAS?
Thank you!
There is no exact timelines. Depending on where your parents did their medical. Ours took 8 days for ‘medical passed’ to reflect on our GC key and we did in Canada.

This amount equal to biometric fee of two person. You paid biometric fee when applied but your biometric was not required because one you did in past for super visa was accepted. This is my assumption.
Thanks! That make sense. Or they could be asked for biometrics for local visa office. I paid the fees via my credit card from Canada.

Sure, My parents have Indian citizenship while i live in Toronto, ON. Their visa office was recently shifted to New Delhi as they're located there. Application was received by them on 21st Jun 2019 and they sent a letter saying it's accepted under intake cap 2019 on 3rd Dec 2019 if that explains. Any info will be helpful. Thanks much.
