For me, DMP said 2 weeks minimum for Lab results. I have done Medicals on 25th May and got the passport request on 14th July. So almost 2 months. Don't worry. You will get the passport request soon.

Thanks tamkah, you give me hope. Actually my DMP had said that it will take a week for the lab results to come and my medicals will be dispatched within 10 days of our appearing for the tests. However, it is 14 days and still no sign of they being sent, as the lab results came in on the 11th day. Hopefully my process goes smooth as yours, as I am running out of time

Guys, DMP at Seattle sucks. 2 weeks and still results not complete to be sent out. Lab results take 10 days to come in. Costliest and slowest.

Dude, this is the case with every DMP. In my case, the doctor said results will be mailed out in 1 week. When I called them to get the tracking number, they said the lab results generally take 1 week and they have come the previous day only. So they would take few more days to mail them out. Finally they took 10 days to send it out.

Hi Me2land,

Cost depends on whether how many bedrooms you want in the apartment.
For Bachelor house: $600 - $750
For 1 bedroom house: $750 - $900
For 2 bedrooms: >= 1000.

It also depends on area of Mississauga too. If you want to live close to Square one, it will be very high.

Here are the websites for housing options:

DMP in chicago does NOT charge $430 but $250

I have about 10 or so DMP here in the tristate area, I should call them and ask for the price before actually going. It does make a difference, $430 and $250 . Thanks you all for your information.
