Hello,

Can you please advise on the below two questions?
1. How long do they take to process Medical Exam and Police Certificate in Canada?
2. Should I apply them before I get ITA in order to avoid delay?

Many thanks in advance!

1 day for medical, 1 week for Canadian police certificate

> Should I apply them before I get ITA in order to avoid delay?
recommended, but not necessary. Don't get Canadian police certificate unless explicitly asked by IRCC

Go for medical after ITA should be good enough... at least in Toronto, next day appointments are available. The medical is valid for 1 year and has to be still valid at the time of your landing. IRCC actually recommends getting medical after ITA. But all depends on you :)
