Congratulations! Did you need to undergo medicals again for PGWP extension under the new public policy?
No medical for extension and never provided one. Not even for first PGWP. I guess its for specific job categories.

Excellent, thank you very much! Did the checklist provided online in your portal include any? The reason I am asking is when starting the new application for that there is a question:
"Have you had a medical exam performed by an IRCC authorized panel physician (doctor) within the last 12 months?"
If I answer Yes - it opens a field to upload medical exam results.
If I answer No - there is no field for medical exam.

So it confused me a bit.

I did medical for my PR application which are expired. So I replied "NO" to ever done medical in last 12 months. So, I never had to upload one and everything was approved smoothly.

Hey guys, please what is the processing time for the trv stamp on passport after getting a work permit approved?.
I really need to go see my hubby after 18months apart. But I've submitted the application for the stamp since feb 18th. Usually it takes like 2 weeks before covid right but this is over 1 month now. #sad
They are processing first week of Jan 2021 these day

@Moazali6 - I see you passed all stages but are waiting for final decision. Have you tried calling IRCC regarding your application? I have the same status as you. I called them twice. First time the lady said that IRCC doesn't have a process in place currently to bring outland applicants to Canada. I called after a week and spoke to a guy who said IRCC will continue to process and not to worry. (not sure what that means).

I called them last month after all my stages were passed.
apparently they are saying that there is no such rule that they won’t give CoPR to applicants with Outland dependent. But honestly I don’t believe what they say .
The IRCC agent just told me to wait as she mentioned no one can tell when the file will be approved.
It’s been a month since all my stages were passed yet no approval so far

We briefed our relationship timeline in the purpose of visit which was long distance for a year. Further quote we intend to immigrate to Canada in long-term as permanent residents mentioning our PR application number.however due to covid not knowing when we will get our decision is causing psychological trauma and anxiety attacks with sleepless nights. With these things brief, requested for visitors visa for short stay in Canada as visitor for family reunion. Also mentioned my wife's job in India, that upon expiration of visitors status or the requested time for stay my wife will exit Canada to resume her employment in India.
Did your wife had rejection for TRV before?

Requested for reconsideration the same day and application reopened on 3rd December 2020. Spouse(dependant on PR app) recently joined me in Canada, like a month ago. All checks passed December 3rd.

Wishing everyone waiting for CoPR the very best

Yes, called cic to update spouse address to a Canadian address. I did get an email from cic landing a day before my spouse landed in Canada and I responded a day after she's here confirming we are both in Canada
