I think this reply makes a lot of logic because security and bg check is being performed by third / outside party. they have no access to the time line of the process so obviously their reply must not give any deadlines or promise/suggest/guess any dates.

jigzzy, congratulation for your medical !!! happy for you ... please share your medical details as well !!!
Thanks so much. My appointment was in Lahore at 8AM before, but I changed it to 12PM (Which is easier for me). So we reached there at 11.15 and the security told us that we are way too early :-\. Come back at around 11.50. So we waited in the car till 11.50 and than came back and the guard this let us in. The guy at the desk took our passports and confirmed for the appointment. Viewed Medical docs & Passport copy and assigned us numbers. We went in the waiting area where it was marked "Canadian Registration". A guy called our numbers and took photos with digital cam [for e-medicals]. Than called Principal applicant [me] to help fill all the forms. He asked general questions, like which category I have applied for, address, mobile etc etc. He than provided me two copies of x-ray, 1 for me & 1 for the wife. I had to fill in details for the name & passport number and had to tick if my wife is pregnant or not. After 20 mins, all forms and formalities were done and he asked me to pay fee which is PKR 6720 / adult. After payment, he asked us to go to X-Ray room upstairs. We waited only 5 mins when a doctor in radiology called my wife first (female doctors for ladies, and male doctors for the gents) and after that a gent doctor called me for an x-ray. We were done with in it 5 mins.

After that, we went downstairs and waited in the lounge for blood and urine samples. A nurse called us in and asked general questions if we were admitted for anything before in the hospital, any medical history etc. My wife is Insulin dependant Diabetic so we told her about it, she than further asked questions and added two more tests and asked me to pay another PKR 1300 for it. Anyway, after that, she asked to step up on weighing scale, and took weights & heights for both of us, than Blood Pressure, pulse, vision test etc. Than she took us to get our blood samples and provided box for urine. It was all done in about 15 mins.

After that, we went to see a Panel Physician (again female ladies for ladies & male docs for gents). He asked me general questions if I was hospitalized, or smoke. Any other issues etc.. After that he asked me to remove my shirt and wait for him on the stool. He first inspected throat etc, and than my knees with rubber hammer, after that he asked me to lie down, and than he inspected my chest, stomach etc via stethoscope and got over with it in 5 mins. He said everything is perfect. If there're any issues with medicals, they'll call us in 2 days, else they'll upload on the 3rd Working day. Everything was done with in 1 hrs 30 mins (though they'll tell you it'll take 3 hours on entrance)

Best of luck, folks.

hahaha....That is a mystery. No one knows how LVO works....Ahmed79 amd my application reached CIO at exactly same time and same date and received by same person :)...Ibasco got his visa in just 4 months....several MAY applicants GCMS notes show no VO has ever touched their application...during Abu Dhabi interviewes, they told that they know the 1 year processing and will follow the same...butnot even done with 1% applicants....several received RPRF with MR and some did not receive at all....some got CSE reply 3 months after MR that waiting for VO review and some under BG checks....so they want us to keep thinking an dthey will keep creating puzzles, different situations and scenarios...it seems they have a special officer whose job is just to creat different scenarios of probabilities and Combinations using nPr & nCr :p :p :D

Gaining wisdom and experience with the passage of time with LVO
