Hi Pratik, Could you tell me what did you mention in the "Have you visited or lived any one of the designated countries for 6 consecutive months in the last year?". I marked it as No after looking at CIC website for designated countries and accordingly didn't get to fill the IMM5753E(Request for Medical). I took a random application to check this and when I select Yes in this option, I am asked to fill this. Could you tell me whether you have filled it in your application. I too have not gone for an upfront medical and after 6 weeks am still waiting for the medical instructions from VO.
