Medicals validity - 6 moths or 1 year?

[karthik506]

How long a medical certificate will be valid... Someone say 6 months and others tell 1 year... Which one is true? Please let me the same.

I was under the impression that medical is good for one year. As such, you have one year from the date of the medical to complete landing after receiving PR. I could be wrong, that's the info I got at least for EE

One year for landing, 6 months for eAPR.

I am currently in canada and my medicals did on 15 october, 2016. Can I use the certificate...

It has 8 months to go. So yes, you can submit with it.

My medicals indicated that it is NON-EDE and worker. Is it normal?

yes

yes

My friend told me that it should indicate IME as EDE and upfornt medical exam type as family EDE. I am confused.

my report mentions UME no. (As it is upfront medicals), there has been a bit of confusion on this in the past. People have received PR with Non EDE and worker status

Non-EDE worker AND EDE-Family are both accepted.

Hello,

Both applicants need to undergo the medical tests, right? The ITA has the name of only the primary applicant. Will this be an issue?

Yes everybody who is accompanying the applicant has to under go medical examination too.

Thanks, but someone I know was refused an appointment for their spouse as their name was not in the ITA. Can they do that? What can be done in this case?

in many Medical centers they don't even bother looking at your ITA, they would just ask for your passport/ID, ask the medical center "do they really need to see the ITA ? "
