Does anyone know what happens if medical expires (1 year) before the process is completed? I'm sure due to the Covid-19 situation it has taken a few months away, will they extend or reask for medicals.
In the past, they have asked for medicals to be re-done, although I do not know if that was in all cases.
And no, no-one knows what they will do when or as the covid situation improves. I believe in a few cases reported here they have just 'extended' as not all accredited medical centres are open.
But honestly I personally think it is not worth worrying about at this point, as it's likely IRCC does not know what they will do either - among other things, covid situation is very different in different countries and lockdown rules vary widely, so they probably can't come up with a general rule right now anyway.
Well, no-one can stop you worrying, but no-one knows and worrying about it will not change anything, and as far as I'm aware there's no useful information out there.
(Personally I'm a bit optimistic they will extend or find some softer solution, and I certainly hope so, since likely to affect my family too, and for larger families it is expensive).
