It's been a long time coming but after 20 months my mum will finally be joining me in Canada on 28th October. Good luck to everyone else that is still waiting.

London office in England took under 2 weeks

The panel physician will have the correct medical forms. Many submit electronically so it isn't an actual piece of paper. All they need to see is the application number which is in the email

The spreadsheet for 2017 has been changed to hide specific lines (including mine) so can someone please update mine as follows: 3rd July - Final Request Ready for Visa email received 5th July - Passport photocopy & new photos sent to London VAC 21 July - PR papers received from London VAC Time...

I don't know if you can send your passport to a different office to that which you are instructed to.

It probably depends on which visa office you are directed to. For Ottawa the instructions say don't arrange any travel arrangements for at least three months, for London theirs says don't arrange any travel for 4 weeks. Needless to say I sent my mum's passport & photos to London!

Can someone please update the spreadsheet: PCC-new one not required, Decision made 3/7/18 So, on 3rd July we got the approve decision and email "Final Request" to forward passport to LONDON VAC. The link took me to applying for eTA, which my mum already has so I called Ottawa to understand...

Does anyone know how long they give to take up residence when the PR is completed please? Just wondering how much of a rush it will be to try to sell my mum's property in UK when we get her papers through. Thank you

I am in the first round of 2017 and am still waiting to hear the results of the medical completed in May 2018. CIC said we had 30 days to get medical done or they would make a decision without it. We complied but no decision has been made so far.

My sponsorship approval date was 26th June 2017

My mother also had her medical exam on 23rd May, it was submitted electronically. We also have not heard any reply from CIC yet about the results.

No, don't I think the same applies to your parents. My personal opinion is that they assume that a much older applicant, e.g. my 84 year old mum, is less likely to start a criminal record than a younger person.

I think may depend on the age of parent or grandparent. I submitted my 84 year old mum's PCC last year even though it wasn't requested. I asked in an email if they want it renewing and they said not necessary.

For some reason Destination City of Montreal QC has been added to my line??? I've not advised of a destination, but it is Halton Hills, Ontario. Or Maybe it would be considered Toronto as HH is in the Greater Toronto Area?

Yes, I received my mum's medical request yesterday and it clearly states that a valid passport must be presented to the panel physician, plus another form of ID with their address, e.g. drivers license.

I got medical request yesterday May 17th. Could someone kindly update the spreadsheet. Thank you - MrsMN Does anyone know if I should request another Police Certificate? The first one I got was dated April 2017

I got my mum's police certificate back in March 2017 when we were accepted in the first round of 2017. Does anyone know if they "expire" after an amount of time and need requesting again like the medical? I was approved as sponsor back in June 2017 and the application has been sitting as "App...

So happy to see that the Ottawa office is finally moving. Fingers crossed that it won't be too much longer than the year we have already been waiting.

Agreed - hopefully not Ottawa which, apparently, is the slowest place to get your PR app sent to.

I thought about doing that but the medical is only valid for a certain amount of time. With the length of time this is taking I figured it would just be a waste of my time and money. I was right as it would have expired long ago and despite being approved as sponsor 9 months ago, my mum's PR is...
