Eligibility starts when a case analyst has been assigned to your file and reviews it. Usually 1-2 months after medicals passed. Security will only start after eligibility has been conclusively passed by an IRCC officer.

All she can do is wait. Has she ordered GCMS notes?

Hello thanks for the reply.. Nope she did not know the GCMS notes. She have no IDEA what will be the next step if she need medical or what.
What do you mean by “she need medical or what”? Didn’t she submit upfront medicals at AOR?

If she’s under express entry, she needs to submit upfront medicals. IRCC will not send any instructions to do medicals.

I think she doesn't belong to EE, it looks like Normal PNP.

Hi.. If normal PNP what she will do? it's been 6 months already after her biometrics done there is no email from the embassy what will be the next step. but in her GCKEY her application is in progress and in details of the status of her application in:
MEDICAL : You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes.

Thank u for the info it really appreciated.

Hi,

Please guide for below situation.

I have received biometrics request which has a timeline of submitting biometrics within 30 days timeline however I have received biometric date which is beyond 30 days - almost after 45 days. I have raised a webform to let CIC know of the situation but there's no response yet.

Request members to guide for below.

  1. Will the govt. accept biometrics if I get it done after 45 days (i.e. beyond 30 days)?
  2. Does VFS center automatically shares the information with CIC for the biometrics done?
  3. When will the biometrics update reflect in my account once biometrics have been completed?

Thanks.
