Experts, Need your input here.

I have applied PR for my 8 month Daughter(born outside Canada) on August 10, 2018 and have received request for medical letter dated 4th Dec 2018. Letter states that medical should be done in next 30 days or IRCC should be informed in case of delay. Currently we are in India for vacation and travelling back to Canada on 3rd Jan 2019. I need help on below 2 scnearios
A) If I decide to postpone, is there any email address I can correspond with IRCC as their phone helpdesk is always busy.
B) Can i get medicals done in one of IRCC Approved center in India? Will it be a problem considering I applied for PR while I was in Canada.

Appreciate feedback\response of the Experts.

You can send an email on the ircc webform. I THINK you can have it done at any ircc approved clinic. If you need an extra week, just send them an email. They are very understanding. As soon as you get the medical , the clinic uploads it to ircc for you so you dont need to worry about waiting for results abd shipping it urself.

You are supposed to remain in Canada while applying for PR for your child. How long are you in India? There is a chance your daughter's application could be refused. How did your daughter enter Canada before?

We are on vacation for a month to attend some functions in India. I am planning to get medical done at one of IRCC Approved clinic here in India to not delay my PR Application.
