Hi mni
The status still shows as In Process only. I think next stage for status is Decision Made only, and that still is some time away.
We went to the Elbit Diagnostics Lab in the New Indian Express building, close to Infantry road. There are only two in Bangalore. This one and one in Rajajinagar. Since this one was closer for us, we went here. The address given in the med requests packet is an old one though. Elbit has moved to the New Indian Express building now from Infantry road.
When we booked the appointment, they said it will take three hours for the entire process.
You need to take:
Photocopies of all the valid passports (first and last page only, even though the packet says "all pages")
2 passport sized photos of each person (preferably from same negative used for application)
Passports
Forms sent by CHC
Any other related docs about prescription drugs you may be taking currently.
With all the above, following is what you'll need to do:
You'll need to sign a couple of forms at the Lab first and also paste the photos.
Next, you'll be given prescription slips for each member.
Take a token and pay the fee for the tests. They accept debit cards.
Submit blood and urine samples.
Get X Ray done.
Consult the doctor for a physical examination. First they will note your weight and height and do an eyesight test. Then the doc will examine you. Pay the doctor's consultation fee there (CASH ONLY: 1900/- for adult, 500/- for child less than 6 yrs old) The doc did some simple tests like follow the finger, move your limbs etc.
In case you have a tattoo, the doc will prescribe three more blood tests to check for liver function. You just need to pay the fee for that and give the receipt at the lab.
Once done, you need to go back to the x ray lab and give them back one of the forms they would have given you at the beginning.
That's it. You are done. It took us three hours exactly and that included their lunch break.
The lab, it seems, handles all Canadian and Australian medicals. So the process is quite streamlined and the staff is also very helpful.
Oh and they dont work on weekends though.
Hope that helps!

Hi,
I am also from Bangalore, right now in Montreal, Canada. I applied for PR and the application is Buffalo office and no progress from the past 6 months.
I observed that if you apply from India you get your PR with in 8 months where if you apply from Canada it takes long time....

Hi Syed,
It depends when have one applied. I am a pre June applicant [MI-1] and my case is pending for the last one and half year. MI-2 and MI-3 are processed more quickly.

Hey many congratulations arctic!
I will be sending my passport this weekend. Couple of questions if you can answer, it will be very helpful!
1. How did you send the passport? Normal post or courier?
2. How long did CHC take to return the passport?
3. How much time have they given you within which you must land in Canada?
Thanks, and congratulations once again!

Hi sukhija23,
Sorry for the delay as i'm out of station. First of all, CONGRATULATIONS as you are in the last stage of your processing. Gud luck!!!
1. I sent my passports through priority courier ie., through DTDC plus.
2. It depends, once your e-case status changes to DM, immediately you will get your pp back. Overall it took 2-weeks for me to get my pp back.
3. Since i'm out of station, i didn't receive my pp's. My wife has received the pp's yesterday. Will let you know once i'm in bangalore.
Hope i answered your questions.
Thanks again for your wishes!!! All the best for your visa!!!
Take care,
arcticmaple...
