Thank you maged. I'm looking forward to your med passed status. :)
Review of docs filed turned to no additional docs needed at this time.

when did it turn? with med passed or before?
 
Can anyone help with when and how to request GCMS notes?

Normally, GCMS Notes can give you informative data after 3 months of your AOR.
You can order one from here:

Additional docs request on 15 Dec. LOE+travel history of spouse.

Only Permanent Residents or Citizens of Canada can apply for GCMS notes AFAIK. Unless you have a friend/relative in Canada (either a PR or a Citizen) who would be willing to order notes, you have to go through a third party.

If your clinic is satisfied with the results, they'll upload it. Otherwise, they'll give you a call and request you to come back again.

Once the clinic uploads the results to the e-medical system, the medical panel appointed by IRCC take a look at your file. If they are satisfied, they advise the VO and your medicals are set to passed. Otherwise, they (VO) might send in a request for additional tests (This is called "furtherance"). You have to take these tests and your clinic submits the results to IRCC.

They (IRCC medical panel) take a look at the results of these tests. If they are satisfied, they advise the VO and the medicals is set to "Passed".

However, if they deem that you are either a danger to public health/safety OR you are a burden to the publicly funded Canadian healthcare system, the process gets kind of complex. Check the below link to understand how the concept of Medical Inadmissibility works.

Thanks for the info. As some people have had their medicals passed straight away, if it's taking longer, does it mean that the clinic has designated the person as "Non-Excessive Demand Exempt" and their file is being reviewed by the VO? I've had a common sport injury many years ago but the panel physician said it wasn't an issue and didn't want any reports. In spite of this, could they have designed me as non-IDE, i.e. subject to further review? I may be worrying excessively- it's only been 1 week since AOR, but why else is there a variation in medical approval times between people in the same region?

All PR applicants should ideally undergo a non-EDE (non-Economic Demand Exempt) medical test.

Your sports injury isn't an issue IMO. They are looking for diseases like Cancer (Burden on Canadian Health care), Tuberculosis (Danger to public health) or mental illness (danger to public safety).
 
Received Schedule A request on Dec. 15, 2016. Please update in the spreadsheet. Thanks!
