Thank you for your reply. I have found the thread, if anyone comes looking for it, the link is pasted below.
I am glad you found it, this forum is simply awesome, I have benefitted so much from the reading and researching
Yes, You are absolutely right. It has cleared a lot of doubts for me as well.
LOL, I feel JT will sink either at by the hands of the Conservative Party next year if he doesn't step down, or by some other Liberal MP if he does.
Yes and no. Upfront medical means when your file is looked at they will not send you an email reminding you to do the medicals. They will make progress. Most likely R10 completeness check will follow soon. That ... being said, no because sometimes things take time and if you are outside Canada, that means repeating medicals or having less number of days before you must land.
Thanks so much for the prompt response. I am inland....My spouse and kids are outland... The kids (both younger than 9 years ) dont need medicals right ?
They do need medical... "When" is the question but they do. Because your PR application will not be decided without it. All your family members need medical. Even if they are not even included in your application.
Yes, they will be included in the application. But for the kids, we need medicals too?
Yes. Dependent children also need to have medicals done.
I called IRCC for that exact reason last week before submitting my application. The helpline worker told me to just wait for instructions. The website does say that if you do not follow their instructions it may result in refusal... so i decided to listen to the worker and not do an upfront medical (I'm also inland).
The website says that PR applicants are NOT REQUIRED...It does not say PR Applicants SHOULD NOT........... But we know that at a later stage, it will definitely be required. So, submitting it early should not lead to refusal at least.
i know that. You asked a question, I gave you my answer from the IRCC helpline worker. Whether you want to do it upfront or not is your call. Not mine.
