Me and my wife had recieved our visa on Nov 10th.
Please update my remaining timeline on speedsheet : MER: Aug 22nd. Passport Request: Oct 22nd. DM: Oct 28th. Passport Recieved: Nov 10th.
My application was recieved by CIC on May 10th so it took
exactly 6 month for us to get visa. If any of you had extensive travel history or past canadian education/working experience, your visa office may take a General Background Check on you for security purpose after medical results recieved. This process takes few month to complete so please be patient. I also spent few weeks to get the police certificate from FBI after medicals.
If you are FSW 2013 applicant, medical request is the milestone. So far I have not heard anyone got visa refused after medicals.
