Jasa99 said:Hello, I have been a casual observer of this forum the last couple of weeks. I need some help as I have been given a RE medical request even though my medical EXIRES July 04, 2014. So I am confused, how can medical expire before one year, I thought that the medical was valid for one year. So I am really confused, is this good news, or bad news.
Application recieved by Mississauga : Sep 13, 2013
Sponsorship Approval: Sep 27, 2013
medical done: July 04, 2013
I think you can consider this as a good news, as this means they have started looking at your file right now. It takes 10-15 days for just the passport in the mail, apart from the processing time (which includes security clearances, criminality checks, etc.). Hence they are requesting for re-medicals.Jasa99 said:A lot of september applicants getting dm or in process right before their medical expires. I am sept applicant with medical expiring July 04, 2014, but they asked me for re medical.
I am a Sept 26 applicant and my wife did her medical on Aug. 5, 2013. From the GCMS notes, her medicals expire on Aug. 13, 2014. You can expect you medicals to expire 1 week from July 4, i.e. July 12.
Did your spouse receive any phone call from the New Delhi office? Also, did you receive the re-medical request through email or a letter?
The reason I am asking is that we are hoping we get re-medicals request and my wife can delay her travel to Canada until end of August. She had a minor surgery recently and has been advised to avoid travel for some time.
