didn't do re medical yet so just be patient and when did you receive approval from the time you receive approval till now how many months have you been waiting?
You replied to the wrong person.
I'm the one who you said to be patient.
I received sponsorship approval on December 2020 which means it's been 3 years and 3 months till now.
I received pre-arrival letter on February 2023, two days after my interview. Which means its been 1 year and 1 month.

Probably your process time is long or could be IOM still busy preparing other refugees to depart with you because IOM doesn't take one person at the time but as many as 30 to 40 refugees once they work on budget

They will cancel your refugee statues when ecas says decision made.

Go to https://onlineservices-servicesenligne.cic.gc.ca/extapp/bioStatusQuery?&lang=en

Put your information and check if your fingerprints are still there. If your fingerprints are there then you are NOT accepted. If it says EXPIRED that means you are accepted.
Keep in mind this will only work after yours is decision made.

My fingerprints got expired 4 days after it said decision made. The cancelling of ur refugee status will finish once they take your reefuge card which will be around the time of orientation or u travelling to Canada. Hope this helps
