I did my IME before coming to Canada as a student in 2019. My spouse did her medical exam in 2021 and is working here too. So both of us are within the 5 years, but took our medical exams from India.

According to CIC;
"In-Canada applicants
We’ve put in place a temporary public policy for immigration medical exams (IMEs) until October 6, 2024.
If you completed an IME within 5 years of submitting your new application, include the IME number (or the unique medical identifier number) from your previous exam in your current application."

Does this mean we can submit our old medical exam reports for PR application, and need not take a brand new exam?
Our medical reports are
'IME: Non EDA, and
Upfront medical type: Student'.

Would we be able to use it? Appreciate any responses!

Just sharing my experience. I did my medical for my SP in 2018. When I applied for PR through Non-EE stream, I was waiting for MR but got MP instead after a couple of weeks from AOR. IRCC used my old medical from 2018.
