The request was sent to IOM via mail. Yeah, maybe a re-med would have been better. But really, all they're asking for is an x-ray, which means my wife's medical has been extended pending an x-ray. And I am sure my wife's police check would have cleared in the mean time. Hopefully, they will look...

NOOOO!!! They asked my wife to do a chest x-ray for the medical extension. She has an appointment tomorrow with her DMP at IOM to do her chest x-ray. Does this mean I have to wait another 4-6 weeks + 1 week it takes for IOM to forward the x-rays????

Hi LightBD, I understand the what-ifs, but if you receive a PPR, then it should be very conclusive that you are eligible. So do not worry my friend, now it is just a matter of time (a short period at that!) Good luck.

Hi Bold9900 My wife submitted her package on Sept 27. I believe Singapore received it on Oct 1, 2012. Ms. Uyen was very surprised that my wife wasn't requested a medical, and she told us a medical extension was the first she's ever seen. But after skeptically submitting our package, she told...

Congratulations Kurt! That is very good news! Hey Lightbd, I've read from your previous post that SVO received your package Oct 3? SVO received mine on Oct 1, so we have very similar timelines! So do you know how it works? Does SVO update the address on eCAS a few days prior or do they update...

Thanks I.N, My Visa office is in Singapore and the RMO is in Manila. But I think it should be similar! Congrats and best of luck to you too!

Hey Kurt, Ms. Tam and Ms. Uyen are workers at the International Organization of Migration located in Ho Chi Minh City. They cannot affect the decision of an application, but they can help with filling out application stuff, and sending items to Singapore. Are your addresses different on your...

Hey QPH, I wouldn't worry too much about that date. I think it has something to do with the fact that the officers/RMO/CIC-Mississauga use the same online system (GCMS). But, in any case, I wouldn't worry about it. According to your timeline, I think your application will be reviewed very soon...

Hey Bold9900, We have a very similar timeline. Has your wife sent the package to IOM yet? I believe it is Ms. Tam and Ms. Uyen who takes care of that. Are you Vietnamese Canadian? I am Vietnamese-Canadian living in Ontario. Congrats on the PPR btw, the hard part is over. Now for the...

Hi Everybody! Just a quick question. This may have come up before, but I may have overlooked. Does anyone know if the medical extension process takes longer than doing the re-med? I was mailed a request for passport, police check, photos, and IMM 5669. I was told through my MP that my medicals...

Just to answer your question. No I have not asked about how long it takes for the medical extension. I will ask my MP to send them a reminder email in November if there still isn't any news. IOM informed my wife that it may take from 4-6 weeks (and even up to 3 months) before we get a response...

Hi Sponbd, When my wife submitted her ppr package to IOM (International Organization of Migration), where they send the package to Singapore, they told her it was the first time they have ever seen a medical extension. They were even reluctant to send it because they weren't sure if such a...

Hey Spondb, are you sponsoring from Vietnam as well? Certainly, it is good news if your medical extension is being requested as it means you are eligible. Also, it doesn't make sense for the extension request to take longer than the time for re-med processing. I believe they use email and an...

Hey, I am sponsoring my wife in Vietnam too. My timeline is: App filed to Mississauga: Sept 12, 2011 App Sent to SVO: December 12, 2011 eCAS changed to in process: Sept 11, 2012 received mail requesting passport, IMM 5669, photos, police clearance: Sept 20, 2012 sent package to them on: Oct 1...

Hey Everybody... I am new to this forum, although I have been following very closely for a while. I'd like to contribute to the forum. I filed the application to Mississauga on September 12, 2011. A year later, on September 11, 2012, Singapore changed the status to in process. A week later, my...
