Are you based in India? Then I would say renew your passport under Tatkal and you will get it very quickly. Recently one of my friend (in Hyderabad) got it renewed and the new passport in hand in 7 days (including Police verification since there was a change in the address).
Thank you so much for a detailed response
. Yes I am based in India.
If the passport is expiring soon, you should renew it and inform IRCC by sending a scan of the passport. This will help you in tow ways.
IRCC only gave 30 days to finish the re-medicals but my parents have to fly to a different city to do re-medicals as the city they live in has no IRCC approved medical practitioners. Looking at the current situation in India, I am feeling its not safe to fly. Can I fill up a webform and ask IRCC to extend the re-medicals deadline again? Will they do that for re-medicals?
Your personal situation is unique to you, so if your parents cannot travel to a medical center, then raise a webform. However, are you based out of India? If yes, then I would recommend you to still make it to the other city and get done with it. The 3rd wave is kicking off, and by the pattern of things, the VFS/IRCC offices would shut, the domestic flight bans would kick in, and states would impose entry/exit restrictions - which are all just one part of the complication. Additionally, IRCC has a massive backlog and you would go behind on the queue. But once again, your personal situation is unique to you and you must take a call based on what you think is right for you.

Yes. I am an Outland applicant under FSW.
People are flying through indirect routes, like Doha (Qatar), Serbia, Mexico and maldives etc. But the fares and quarantine packages are too high, more that six time higher than normal fares.
Yes! I was suggested by several members to not go ahead with an upfront medical without a remedical request letter and another member suggested to again reply back on the “Do you still want to immigrate” email. I replied back to them on the 22nd of July requesting a re-medical (again) and two days later (24th July) I got the re-medical request letter. I got my medical done on the same day itself. Now waiting for it to be reflected in my IRCC account.
