No, I haven't. The last time I called the CIC, they weren't waiting on me for anything, and I just got my open work permit (I applied after AIP) so there don't seem to be any problems.

Hello everyone,

I have a piece of information to share for people who are waiting for the second stage approval.

I applied in August 2011 and got my AIP in June 2012.

I initially did my medical exam in July 2011 before I sent my application, and my medical was shown on e-cas right after AIP.

However, I received an email a few weeks ago in December 2012 saying that I have to re-do my exam to get my final approval.

So even if your medical exam is shown as received on e-cas, they might ask you to re-do it if it has been more than 1 year since you conducted it, and if you're waiting for the second stage approval.

Cheers

thank you for the reminder! I did my medical exam 8 months (by mistake indeed) after i sent in my application becos i didnt realise I need to do it. Just hope my medical exam would stay valid until they approved my stage 2.

Congratulations to you, i guess u are just one step closer to the finishing line!!

AFTER AIP, it should take around 3 months, as said by others in this forum:)
