I just talked with my MP and they said they're still waiting to see if they can extend the medical.

Chances are they will ask for a chest x-ray and new passport photos since those provided are more than 1 year old.

What are those pics for? They are not passport pics... so why do they have to be less than 1 year old? :\

Is this ever gonna end? -_-

Wow dood you have it bad.

In our case, it's a whole new set of problems.

If they need anything, it'll take months to find out (last time it took 3.5 months to find out that they claimed they sent us e-mails we never received), since we still can't receive e-mails or letters from them.

We cannot trust their incompetent lines of communication.

For us, everything has already expired, so whatever they will ask for we will probably find out another 3.5 months from now. And by the time they get around to it, they would have expired again.

Those CIC personnel are just vicious animals that should be euthanized like the abominations that they are.

And ~that~ is accurate.

Did they ask you for new pictures? If they didn't, are your pictures 1 year old yet?

OK that's not too bad. Sounds like it's getting near. Good luck!

For our app, we were never asked for passport pictures. I'm confused, if they never asked for passport pics, why do they need passport pics. Sounds to me like they will eventually ask for that. And why would they resend her for a chest x-ray if at all?

They always ask for pics. The need to take pics to the medical is mentioned in the Philippines Guide (IMM3905E) and the number required (4) in http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/guides/Med-Exam-Instructions-eng.pdf. They will not do the exam without it (as my wife found when she forgot to bring them to the medical the first time she went).

There are also the 9 signed and dated ones required for the app. Since the pics are cheap enough I just told my wife to get a pack of 20. If I remember right I sent 12 with the application (they can toss the unused ones) and she kept 8 for the medical and any other contingencies.

They emphasize in Appendix B of the Philippines Guide that the format of the pic, while resembling a passport photo is not necessarily the same format as one which is why they suggest taking the photo specs to the photographer.

We know about the 9 pics. We sent those 9 pics as they requested, but they are more than 1 year old now. Do you think this will have an impact?

I do not remember my wife taking any 4 pics to the medical which was done Oct. 2011, but now they are trying to extend it. Do you think it will fail because she does not have those 4 pics in her app?

What I'm worried about is that she was never asked for Passport pics therefore she never sent any. Do you think this will cause issues?

That's 3 questions for you... :)

You don't put the 4 pics in your app. You bring them to the medical and the doctor puts them in your file. So if you end up having to get another medical you will need to bring 4 more pics to it.

The 9 pics in the app are probably fine since the pics you were referring to were the 4 medical ones.

OK I'm not sure I understand.

You're saying the 9 pics are OK even if they are more than 1 year old?

Now the unanswered question, what about the passport pics? None were requested of her...
