Hi, I received a request to do a medical exam (SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP FROM WITHIN CANADA).

However, I already have an active medical dated 31st Jan 2022. It has been only 7 months. When I tried to book a new medical, panel physicians said I don't need to, as it is already active.

On their suggestion, I raised a webform to IRCC requesting them to link my medical to my spousal sponsorship application.

I had already submitted the medical results with my online application when I applied. So should I try to book a new medical? Or is raising a webform enough?

Thanks guys

Has there been any improvement in the AOR timeline or is it still the same like 3 months? I have resubmitted my Spouse application online today.
Hoping that I don't have to wait 3 months again for the next update :)

Hi Everyone,

Is there anyone who is waiting for Sponsorship approval Letter, Medical and Biometric request from IRCC.

I received AOR email on August 10, 2022 for my outland Spouse Application. Since then no communication from IRCC end. It is so weird that they have not even checked my eligibility for Sponsorship approval.

Application Submitted : April 30, 2022
AOR : August 10, 2022

It takes beween 1 month to 1 1/2 month after AOR to receive communication. This week or next week you should be able to hear on your Medicals,Biometrics and Sponsorship Approval. Good luck!

Thanks, but I observed that some applicants received their Sponsorship Approval letter and Biometric/Medical requests on the same day they received the AOR. But for mine cases It is taking longer than usual.

Is it online spousal sponsorship application or paper? What is your visa office?
