I thought that due dates are auto-generated and an officer picks up file anytime.
I had a due date for my sponsorship approval earlier this year. Ordered my notes and they did touch the file again on or around my due date. Not sure if it works that way for every step. But either way they would need some reminder to go back a file.

Picked up by whom the officer who already have it or another officer, the same agent who’s having due date had the file since June.
I'm not sure if it matters who. But that's the alarm clock. I never looked to see if it's the same agent. I just wanted to know it was advanced or touched.

whats this? meaning?

The dual intent instructions have been updated with a section specific to spouses and partners who have an overseas application for permanent residence as a sponsored spouse or partner in progress. The new section includes factors for officers to consider when assessing dual intent for this group of applicants, particularly for those who have also applied for a temporary resident visa

That's interesting, I didn't notice a due date when we ordered our notes. I will have to go back and check. So on or around your due date there was some movement?

When did they extended, also how long did it take for DM after extension ??
I ordered gcms notes in end of sept and got them oct 22 and it already had the extension on there.. they actually sent off for the extension in mid sept automatically, i never called them for this. So i guess when they do the monthly checks they look for things that may expire. So anyway they updated the medical i gusss sometime between end of sept and mid october as when i got my gcms notes oct 22 it had already mentioned the extension. I got DM on Oct 27 and my husbands PPR just came yesterday. So pretty quick at the end but we r 17 months into the application as i am June 2019 applicant.

How do you know that medical is extended until 2021?
Is it mentioned in your gckey account?
No its mentioned in the gcms notes under the medical section that it is now valid till April 30 2021. GC Key has no mention of medical extension and i never got an email to let me know they were extended. I knew they were expiring but i figured they will send me communication to renew if necessary but with Covid i expected them to make an exception

then no need to worry you are fine. They would have automatically extended without informing. I believe they made this exception due to covid as our files got stuck for 7 months due to the pandemic and it would bw too much for them to monitor thousands of medicals if they had to be redone. Too much paperwork, so they decided to extend if file was in good standing order.
