Hello, I need some advise regarding my parent's visa extension.

My parents came to visit me in July 2022 and they would like to stay till March 2023. This exceeds the 6-months max stay so I am going to apply for a visitor extension for them. The only thing is I know it will require a medical exam later. However, my parents will leave in 2 months and by the time CIC decides a med exam is needed, they will likely be no longer in Canada. Does anyone have similar experience? How do my parents do the med exam in this case?

Yes they would still need to do the medical exam. If they benefited from more than 6 months then that’s the price they have to pay.
