Medicals are required for a supervisa. Your parents may have already done a medical for another application within the past year.
Seems like you know my parents more than I do:) my parents never applied for any Canada visa before and this is their first time. Required is not mandatory thought so yeah according to their account they don't need it so...

That is a rare case where the file is being processed via AI and they must have had a valid medical already with no irregularities. If files are processed manually it take 2-3 months minimum.
Thanks for clarifying. Yes, my friends mother had biometrics and medicals upfront from other applications thats why AI processing would have worked.

Congratulations! That was quick. :)

Which insurance did you opt for for your Parents-in-law?
And how much was it, if you don't mind answering it.

Hi,
I'm gonna follow the process for my mother-in-law's super visa. Would love to learn from your experience.
If we can gather enough data points, I'll create a visual for us to track timelines and processes, similar to the one in my signature with Express Entry profiles.

Good to know. I applied on may 11th and for me biometrics is marked as completed. my mother recently gave upfront medicals (no medical request from IRCC yet). Hopefully, there is a movement with my application as well.

Thank you..!! Yes, it was quicker than I thought.
I took Secure Travel (RIMI) Insurance. No Pre-Existing Condition. Non-Smokers. The age of the applicants is 57 and 54. I paid $2319.22 for both for 100,000 with a $250 deductible. One thing I figured out is that no matter which insurance agent you take your insurance from, the prices of the insurance will be the same for any given company. You can get quotes from the insurance company's website directly. The insurance agent will be helpful if you need any help or advice related to a claim in future. And it doesn't cost us anything.

I received a message on the portal about passport requests for both applicants same as the biometrics requests. So I got an email notification for both applicants about unread messages on the portal.
