Not yet :-( Looks like my country is going on a 4 week lockdown again! The situation is getting worse here - people don't believe in the virus and patients dying from pneumonia is not a persuasive factor for them. People keep arranging weddings and family gatherings - so dumb!

VFS has just tweeted it is opening so many VACs in New Delhi. Not Canada ones, but it is a good sign I think. (Sorry, cannot giv link to tweeter - it is blocked at my work)

There was a person who sent that form referring to the Vande Bharat mission, but he received an answer that only those COPR holder whose COPR was approved before 18th of March are exempt from the travel ban. But because his new COPR will be issued after the 18th of March he is no longer exempt...

May be it depends on VO - you might not be required to retake medicals, who knows. I have already mentally prepared myself for a loooong process. Lady from the Clinic also told me, that they have a long queue of clients waiting for their appointments since April. It means it will take time to...

My surveillance category is M1.

My COPR expired in April.

The Request for Medical arrived to my account, so consequently IRCC have the tools to monitor what is being sent to the applicants. Anyways, I am totally fine with that. All I want is just to write here one day: Hey guys, want to share with you my landing experience.

They have just answered me that current 30 days rule does not apply at the moment and I can take my exam when it is safe. I read about 90 days regarding med and biometrics, just wanted to confirm with the VO.

As per the latest instructions, "a re-opened application may be re-approved provided that the applicant and their family members, whether accompanying or not, have valid immigration medical examinations, criminal and security checks and passports. " It doesn't mentioned M1 and M3 or anything.

Thank you. I did both: raised a web-form (as per the guidelines) and wrote to VO (as per their letter saying "write here as soon as you are ready"). Just called to the Clinic. They are not accepting appointments. Don't know why I was given only 30 days. I informed the VO about that. Will wait...

Thank you! I think that will take a while (may be longer than usual) and I will ask them.

Thank you. I am determined to do everything on time - don't want to blow up opportunity again, hopefully the clinic takes appointments.

Yea - we will do what we have to do as long is doesn't throw us back to the pool :-) I am from Kazakhstan. Borders are still closed, but international flights are resuming on 20th of June. As per Border Control of my country, PRV holders are exempt (but none knows how well the ordinary officers...

Sure, I also need to call to the clinic and make sure they can accept me. I will keep you all updated.

I was requested to do medicals. Depends on individual situation I guess.

I don't understand why somebody is so sure that we will not have to redo our medicals. Some of us will have to do that! Please, don't be mislead with a false feeling of peace and be prepared to retake medicals. I have just been requested to go through medical examinations. I wrote directly yo...

Thank you for the link. However, I will not be able to start my studies as an International student (expensive). I hoped to become domestic as soon as I land (hopefully).

I read on Facebook groups that International students (with study permits issued before 18th of March) were denied boarding. Air India and border control referred to Canada not letting them in, but it is not true, isn't it? Canada allowed International students as far as I know. It will be a...

I really hope so!

Oh, no. If we have to redo medicals, it will be even longer. I only hope my University will allow distance learning for first semester (they barely do that for engineering programs).
