Any help interpreting this part would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks!
Yes, they received your medicals but they are not yet done working on it. Status is IN PROGRESS. The last update date based on your GCMS is 2011/08/02. IME status will change to "ASSESSED" when done.. the number indicated in it is your medical report#.
App status will change to
"PASSED" when completed and they will write the assessment result in DESCRIPTION as either "Excessive demand", Excessive demand Exempt", "Furthered Case".
Among these 3, EDE or Excessive Demand Exempt is the Positive result meaning you passed the medical assessment... while ED Excessive Demand is Negative.
EDE – Excessive demand exempt. Applicants for immigration to Canada who, due to specific aspects of the legislation, are not evaluated or assessed for inadmissibility on the grounds of expected demands on health and/or social services.
Excessive Demand – Requirements for medical or social services of such a level as to threaten the sustainability of Canada’s publicly funded healthcare system, or deny or delay access to Canadians that would prevent the admission of an applicant to Canada.
Furthered Case – A medical officer may determine, upon reviewing the medical documents received from a DMP, that additional or more detailed information is required to complete an applicant’s medical assessment. This additional information may be in the form of supplemental or more detailed clinical or laboratory investigations, or reports and analysis from consultants or specialists. Cases where this additional information is requested are said to be “furthered.”
