Received second medical exam request on April 18th. However, my parents were in another city to deal with some important stuff, and they won’t be able to do the medical exam before 18th this month. What would be considered a valid reason to postpone the medical exam? Thanks!
No need to worry. If they can do by May 18 that should be fine. They will consider Covid situation.

Same phase as you.
Contacted MP office last week. MP agent called IRCC and IRCC agent said 'once wait time passed the 24 months mark we will not be able to give any estimate'. Seems to me that IRCC is freewheeling in giving answers.
We contacted our MP a while ago but because it was before 24 months, they couldn't do anything. Not at 24 months yet but since we got that letter a bit ago about how the processing times are not accurate (and no longer listed as such), I don't think inquiring again will help. I did get the GCMS notes today but there's really nothing in there. A bunch of pages are redacted. Looks like the application is active/open but nothing has been done. I do realize we were at the very late end submitting (but still before the deadline!) and that was because my daughter was born in June 2019 so we couldn't submit until we knew her name/birthday as she is obviously a dependent.

Hi everyone,
Yesterday was the 2 year mark of my sponsorship application to my parents.
The fact that I live in QC seems to be an extra slowing factor on top of the pandemic (very few QC files have been concluded so far).
Since Dec 2019 just radio-silence.


I don't have anything special to share but to wish everyone good luck and patience.
It's a sad state of affair even if we can indeed consider ourselves the lucky ones (which are already in process, whatever it's suppose to means) but it's upsetting to realize that even after 2 years of processing with very few to none information, you don't seem to be worthy of any extra information or clarification
Anyway, I want to thank everyone that somehow contribute to this community with special thanks for the admins for keeping the google sheet updated (funny how a bunch of random people on an online forum can create such a powerful informational tool)

I feel that my journey is not even close to the end, so looks like we are going to be here for the long haul ;)

Anyway, thanks everyone and enjoy the summer, maybe after the holidays we will see some extra movement? (one can only hope)
Keep your positivism in this difficult situation.
Once Covid situation is in control, all applications get processed.
London VO is sending all sorts of requests now as the Covid situation has improved there.

Hey am in the same boat as you. I have been waiting for my moms passport call since 2020 Jan. Last update is they are doing background check in india and it's more than a year for that now. Her visa office is mississauga. Are you at the same stage?
I have not got anything , they always say the back ground check is in process, no eligibility has started , nothing

My mom did her second ME on Apr 29 but hasn't seen any update yet.

Did you see MyCIC updated first, ant then received PRR after 4 days, or the PPR just came directly without any change on ECAS or MyCIC?

Hi, my parents did it on April 23, uploaded on the same day, and it got passed on May 7. Exactly 2 weeks.

Hello Pro members,

I just got a quick question, I recently received the Police certificate and Medical Request from London Visa Office. My mom lived with us on visitor visa last year with the visitor extension upto 8 or 9 months do i need a police certificate for her from Canada as well?

Medical appointments are far out and latest one is in July so we need to send the extension request to London visa office?

Thanks in advance

There is no police certificate from Canada. IRCC may ask you RCMP finger printing later if they think that is necessary.

where did you mom do her exam? My dad did it in Canada on Apr 28 and it took the doctor here for 2 weeks to upload the result to immigration. Hope it will pass soon.
