Guys, I have done upfront medical today, being an outland applicant, lets see wether it will be working for me or not.???
Any outland applicant who have successful upfront medical..?? Please advice

If you have ITA, the upfront medical is good. If you do not have ITA, there is no benefit.

Which office did you send your application to?
Is it AIPP program?

I used a courier, so used the courier address for the central intake office in Sydney NS:

49 Dorchester Street
Sydney, NS
B1P 5Z2

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/contact-ircc/offices/case-processing-centre-sydney-nova-scotia.html

And it's OINP program, not AIPP.

Upfront medical speeds up the application process, don't listen to your lawyer, just go for it , I did upfront medical too and I'm PR now, my aor was Feb 12

Does that also speeds up the application for OUTLAND applicant? please advise.

Upfront medical means submit Medical with PR application... Its standard procedure, almost everyone does that... IT does speed up but not that much...

Isn't ITA just for Express Entry applications, this s a forum for Provincial nominee program paper-based

I have seen it making a big difference. For example, in my case I did not receive any medical request yet! Some of the applicants who did upfront medicals are permanent residents now even though their AOR is after mine. I’m talking specifically about the inland applicants.

First of all, you have to contact the approved panel of physicians near you and take an appointment. They would definitely guide you through the whole medical process and the documents needed for the same.

Does upfront medical really speed things up or it's as random as the whole application process?
I've asked my representative lawyers ( kpmg ) and they told me it makes no difference at all and it's wiser to wait for the medical check request.

My AOR was March 10 and PAL back in August, no updates since then.
I was exempt for Biometrics since we did them back in February for Working Permit renewal before COVID struck.
Inland application with 2 dependants.
I had to update my file with new dependent ( Baby born in Canada, this summer ) in August/September, so maybe that has slowed down things for me after PAL

I believe we have the same timeline. My AOR is March 9th, and received PAL in August. I just did the upfront medical, and waiting for the updates.
