Yeah, thanks for doing the spreadsheet :D
As soon as I send my app I'll ask to be added to it.

I bet I will be the only person with such a difference between the medical tests date and documents reception date! ::)
I had them done a long time ago (month and a half), thinking I wouldn't take too long to send the rest of the application ??? I'm sure I'll have to repeat them in the future, as the year is bound to happen before I get my results. Oh well...
The application definitely takes a lot longer than first predicted - however luckily after you send the worst is over - then it's just a waiting game. Good-lucky sending it off :)

I had my medicals done in March, app sent in July... so I think I might take that from you! I had mine done for my work permit as I work with children, and then I had to wait for my LMO and work permit to come through before I could send in my PR app.
On a side note, there is an extension available for medical results if they expire before PR is processed as long as the expiration is the only thing restricting the VO from issuing approval. Not sure of the full details, but it might stop you from having to repeat them. There are more details of this in another thread.

Hi bagelbagel81,

Thanks for creating the file. You can add the medical's date for my wife. It is May 18th, 2012. My wife did everything except the x- ray due to pregnancy. Hopefully they will just ask her to add it after the baby is born and send it to wherever the medical exams go. In our case it's London as this is where the European center is.

Thanks Lioha and bobcanada

Lioha- what date did you send your application? I am sure getting the x-ray at a later date should not hold up that application process too much... good-luck

bobcanada- when did you do your medicals? and which VO will you be going through? Will add you to the spreadsheet :)

Hi BobCanada,

Parcel box weighed 9-10 kg's (wow)! you realize that you don't have to send your first born as proof. :D
Now I feel a little inadequate with my almost 2kg's. Just kidding mate. Good luck with the process.
Cheers

Mine weighed 7 lbs (with the box) .. After reading many of the stories on here, I wanted to err on the side of sending too much!
