I also had a surgery for benign non-cancerous tumor in Dec 2013. I just had my medicals. Though the doctor specifically didn't ask any questions about my surgery I disclosed that to him. I have a letter from the Surgeon who operated mentioning about the surgery and that my condition doesn't need any further treatment. I gave this letter and also pathology report of the tumor to the doctor to be sent to CIC.
Just want to know whether your surgery was also in Canada? My surgery was in Toronto and I am in Canada since almost 4 years.
Just wondering whether I did a mistake to disclose my surgery without being asked.
Please share your thoughts.
No, my surgey was done back home 6 years ago.
Good to know that you gave every supporting medical document you have from the surgery because these could strengthen your justification for passing the immigration medicals. Not declaring any medical condition may lead to further delays or who knows... A possible rejection if they found out you withheld information. Then that would have been your biggest regret. Take my word for it.. you did the right thing. Better wait a little longer than wait on nothing.
Best of luck to you and to all of us you are waiting. Give it 90 dAys from "medicals sent", then email CIC for status update (that was the advice i got from 2 immigration consultants. My MP told me to give them another month).
Bdw, from asking and surfing this forum, average time for medical under review is about 3 months. So stay positive.
