    yes, as long as you submitted an owp application, you don't have to wait for cic to give you a medical request. this is what they replied when i asked them: Medical exam form - In-Canada work permit application If you need to undergo a medical examination before sending your work permit...

    submit your pcc and sched a through ircc webform. your rep should know better. he should be aware of the glitches and should've followed up with cic. if cic said they sent the request then they did. do it asap.

    FOR FUTURE APPLICANTS WHO WISH TO WORK WITH CHILDREN, AGRICULTURE AND HEALTHCARE: DO YOUR UPFRONT MEDICAL EXAM! i can't stress this enough. if you are submitting an owp app with your pr app, you can do an upfront medical exam! it's not really forthright in the cic website but you don't wanna...

    something is definitely up with cic lately. a lot of apps are being returned for completely crappy reasons and a lot of apps are "lost". not to mention the glitches, the mistakes, the long-awaited responses, the shady agent explanations. i think they're trying to control the applications that...

    did your husband file taxes for 2016 though? because it should be available by now. my NOA was mailed to me and my husband's was available in his online account. i just printed it out. you should try sending it by mail since i think it's faster. i'm not sure though, i haven't tried sending in...

    about 12 months since the time you applied. that's the processing time for 2017 inland apps.

    even if you did submit sched a with your app, they still ask for an updated one most of the time so it's normal if you did receive a new request.

    yes, some even have a request for sched a already waiting when they link their accounts. the next step for you will probably be the background check to start.

    i know right?! i am regretting now, i should've applied outland. i may have landed by now. i think the bc for outland is quicker because they're not in canada. for inland apps, it's much more complicated because we have to go through clearance for cbsa, interpol, etc. that's what i think. cic...

    @acarter i feel you. my thoughts exactly. they should start accepting pr apps online so that applicants can monitor and track their status but i think there's some magic behind the scenes so they can control and regulate the flow of applications. i don't know why we can't go online since they...

    some apps were returned because the option c noa for 2016 was missing. you can print out the option c noa on the cra website though if your husband has his cra online account. i hope it won't negatively impact your app. it's good that you provided with an explanation though, they might consider...

    why don't you submit an application for a new owp so you don't have to renew? i was gonna take the amendment route because of a restriction i wanted to be removed but i figured it's better to apply for a new one. i received my first owp and had it for 3 weeks and then i applied for a new one on...

    background check can take 6 months or maybe longer. it's the longest process. some of dec 2016 applicants were lucky enough to have DMs but for most of us, it can still take up to 12 months. gcms are probably a good way to know if an officer has determined there are red flags in your app.
