This all process of being in a grey area is very frustrating especially when it takes a year before they even know about you.
When I went to ICBC to take the canadian theory and road test for my driving license(I have mine for 20 years) they refused several times while asking for papers from the goverement that state my status so the email wasn't enough.After begging few times one official let me take the theory and rosd test...lucky.
Even now that I have canadian license I have to renew it at icbc every two months and to explain my status to a new official until ill get my pr and only then ill get the plastic license....Frustrating :)

As part as the in Canada Sponsorship application you have a section of medical check ups(It is in the check list provided).
I paid something like 200$ if I'm not mistaken and went to to a doctor office in Vancouver.
They tested blood & urine took an x ray and quickly took my weight and height and also inquired about my general health.
End of day I got three slips as prove of payment and sent them with the application as requested.
They have my information in their database.
You didn't have this section in your application?

ICBC:
If you really want a driver license here are my recommended steps:

1.Learn the theory material from the book and be prepared.In addition go online and take the test provided there,its very helpful.
You should be ready so if the official approve you for taking the test you will do it on the spot and pass(very easy test took me 10 minutes but I read the book more than 4 times just to be sure)
2.Print:
*The email you got from CIC
*Screenshot of you on line status with your name in it("we received your application on...status") and the same one with your spouse status on line so they can see your name with the word "permanent residency" near it :)
3.Bring your passport and your previous driver license(if applicable)
4.The most important thing-Bring your husband! They react differently when talking to Canadians(I brought my wife) with a Canadian accent :)
5.Go to the Burrard branch
6.After the official(usually young and confused) talking to you will get confused he will go to his manager(And if not demand it).
The manager will decide if to approve you for testing or not.I was refused by the first one and approved few days later with a different one so it all depends on the manager and her/his mood :)

Good luck!

I do see it in the check list:
Under:"for the applicant and his or her dependent children"
last bullet:"proof of medical examination"
It does say that if you don't have a valid medical report you will get instructions so I won't worry.
look at this page:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/medical/medexams-perm.asp
I guess I didn't really needed to do it and could have waited until they will contact me but I believe it would have make the process longer.
I did it two weeks before applying so I hope they won't ask me again due to the fact its good for a year :)

thanks for this good news :)

i think your medical report will be ok & you wont need another one as it valid for 12 months (hope you get your AIP & DM soon) ;)

Validity
"" You can only use your examination results in your application for 12 months from when you had the examination. If you are not admitted to Canada as a permanent resident within this time, you will be required to undergo another examination.""

i may start my medical report soon to be prepared & to avoid more waiting dealy
