Hi,

I am a new bee to this thread.Can someone tell me the average processing time for CIC to process medicals Once the medicals are sent by doctor.

Also I am seeing the threads about changes in E-cas to "Medicals received". When does this happen and where can i see this. As of know it shows IN Process.

Regards.
K.
Click on "In process" as it represents a hyperlink and if will display your case timeline

Hey all. Checked my ECAS and it changed to in process to medicals received to decision made. I'm from a visa exempt country so hoping to receive COPR in a week or so!

Best of luck to everyone else and thanks a million to this site it has been truly help full.

No, it seems that cic are a little delayed with updating medicals. I had mine done on the 7th and sent on the 17th, but ecas isn't updated.

They've sped through the applications these last couple of months but there will always be a bottleneck somewhere.

Hello Guys,

I did my landing yesterday and everything went well without any issues. Here is my landing experience:

I went to Canadian CBSA border office(St. Stephen, NB) and told them that I came here for PR landing. The officer told me to go to US and get the refusal and come back. So I went to US and informed them the same and they took me inside the building and after 5mins, US officer gave me the refusal letter and asked me to make a U-turn and return to Canada. So came back to Canada and given the refusal letter to CBSA officer. He asked all the papers like Passport, COPR letter and previous Work permits. Then he said it will take 10 to 15mins for him to complete the process and he is very kind and told me to sit in the chair. Exactly after 10mins he called me and asked "Do you have any criminal offense" and I replied "No". Then he told me to sign the COPR letter and confirmed that now I am the Permanent Resident of Canada and given some instructions like changing SIN number, medical cards and also explained about residency obligations. Then told me like it will another 8 weeks to get the PR card. Once again he congratulated and said have a nice stay in Canada. So happy :D :D

Here is my detailed timeline:

Thank very much for all the people in this forum and best wishes for everyone waiting. Now its time to join PR card waiting group. I will be checking this forum quite often and if in case anyone has any clarifications needed from me, then I am very happy to help. Thanks again. Lets hope for the best...
