Hi, I am FSW Inland.

I submitted my pr application and used my previous medicals (from 2021). On march 7th, on my GCkey account the medicals were passed. however, this morning I received an email from IRCC asking to do medicals !!! and I received imm1017 on my GCkey.

I have medicals less than 5 years (1 year old), I am applying from inside canada and low risk ! do you think that this maybe a glitch ? anyone had the same case ?

Thank you

I Just faced the same issue, when i called IRCC, they mentioned it might be a glitch but to be on the safe side do again, another agent told to submit a webform with old medical, just to be on safe side, i submitted webform with explanation and old medical IME. But next day just to be on the safe side did medical again. 1 Week later medical showed as passed. I don't know it if is old medical or new medical they passed.

Thanks for sharing your experience, I sent a webform with old IME and LOE. I will wait for a week of nothing happens I will re do the medicals.

I met the same, but I did a second medical exam, if on GCKey, the wording"on xxx, you passed the medical exam" disappeared, then I would say do a new one, the new medical information will show up on your portal within a week.

It was showing medical exam passed on xxx, then became "we don't need your medicals" .. and now it is showing "we have requested a medical exam". However, on the tracker, it is medicals completed !!!

then I do not know.. when you logged on your GCkey, does it say "your action is required"? If so, I would say yes you need a new medical exam, if not, then try to raise a webform

My medical passed again with new medical report. So i'd assume it is at best interest to do medical again. It will make the process fast, will take around 1 week to pass again.

Hi, Even I also faced this same problem recently like 2 months back . I called ircc and asking them about medicals then they sent a notes to ircc officer . Then they changed the message in my ircc account that I don't need to do medicals

I tried calling them twice but they’re saying to submit old one with letter of explanation but idk if webform takes more than 30 days. What you exactly told them that they helped you?
