Yes it is spousal sponsorship application and I’m going to Alberta. I applied from Turkey but I’m citizen of Uzbekistan. I sent my passport on January 15, they started to process it on January 20 and got it back today
Congrats! Which company did you use for sending the passport?

Hello,
Thank you for sharing. I have seen medicals extended for Turkish nationals. Do you know if they extend the medical for Iranian applicants too?
Yes there were many people in this forum who had the same extented medical results. It has nothing to do with nationality. It just doesn't make sense for IRCC to put people at risk during such time. No one should worry about doing the test again while this whole delayed situation is no ones fault.

Thanks for the response.
Please did you get a notification or mail when the passport was stamped/approved? That is before it was finally sent back to you. If yes, please what date were you notified?

Hello, my husband is an Iranian national and they extended his medicals. When he used the webform to indicate to them that he was ready to travel he asked if he had to do new medicals and they said "no, they have been extended please send your passport". He sent the passport to Ankara on Dec 11th, got tracking on Dec 21st, started processing on Dec 29th and we are still waiting! Getting super frustrated!

While your passport at the embassy you cannot know any information, you can only track receiving and sending out date by the embassy,they won’t tell you one what day they put a stamp on your passport,hope it helps you
