You are not representative for your parents, may be CPP-O sent latter to your parents. I would suggest ask your parents write e-mail and fax to CPP-O; that they have not received any mail regarding additional tests.
How about the background check, did CPP-O complete it or not?

Oh, sorry to hear that - hopefully nothing major (are you able to see in the notes which tests they are asking for - i.e. in relation to which medical issue? (I am not buggying you which ones :) - just wondering if that info is visible in the notes)?
 
Shuga and others who ordered GCMC notes /caips: what is the time gap between the date you received the notes and last update?
I know that it takes several weeks to receive but I am wondering what 'cut off' date they use for notes and when - in that waiting period - they pull those notes.

E.g. if I order now and say 2 weeks from now an update happens, will that update be captured in the notes or do they cup off based on the date I ordered?
I assume it probably takes them a couple of weeks to even get to my order so I hope they include as much as available at the actual pull date not my order date...


Also, Shuga, did you order the CD again for your most recent request? Or did you pick email option this time?
THey say email is for smaller files but how would i know if my parents file is small enough for the notes to be sent by email? (they did apply for TRVs many times before prior to the PR application).

it is not visible in the electronic files (notes)... but it is visible if you order a copy of the physical file...
it's a request for an additional x-ray and tuberculosis test (8 weeks to complete)

in my case it was almost one month gap between the date i received the notes and the last update... i mean - they created the notes as soon as they received my request... then waited for a month... then send it to me... so all updates are 1 month old...

first time i think i selected and e-mail but got a disc... this time a selected a disc...
 
Shuga, they gave you timeline to complete? In my case there are a lot of EKG, stress test and others from cardiologist, no timeline. It will take a lot of time for us. Every test my father has to translate to english and certify...

So, you ordered a copy of the physical file this time? I thought this is not recommended because it causes delay in processing (or so they say).

They send so many people for those extra tb x-rays/ tests...annoying (I personlaly know many - even for visitor visa). As soon as they spot any spot on the lungs, they do it. THis is kind of frustrating, because it delays the process (for most people - and all people I know who had to do those tests - it ended up being nothing in the end, but delay).

I wish they at least started other components of processing (e.g. security/ clearance) but it looks like they do not do that (judging by your notes).
Clearly, multitasking is not in their job description :-)
