Hi Galano, thanks for your reply. I don't understand what you mean by "extension on the medicals". I did upfront medical exam for PR application, but it was in March 2015, so I think for sure it's expired.Galano1213 said:In Cuba the Police certificate is good for 1 year and the Medical for 1 year and you can ask for an extension on the medicals. I would think it is the same in most countries as Canada would allow the extension or not.
I found some info from CIC website:

[size=10pt]Who needs a police certificate?[/size]
In general, you and all the people in your family who are 18 or older need to get a police certificate.
You may need a police certificate from any country or territory that you have spent six months or more since the age of 18.
For example: if you visited, worked or lived in a country for two months, left for a few years, then returned for four months, that counts as spending six months there. In this case, you would need a certificate.
If you need a police certificate from a country or territory and:
-are currently living there, or received the police certificate before leaving, the police certificate must be issued within six months before you apply.
-have lived there in the past, the police certificate must be issued after you last lived in that country or territory.
I think the validity of police certificate is 6 months!
