hi
UK2CANADA &
SATISH_LKB
(many congrats to UK2CANADA for the med request, i hope u get the med. done smoothly & get the PPR within a month)
let me first post the link for the forms for anyone who wanna send it as a proacive measure to LDN
with full docs:
http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/united_kingdom-royaume_uni/assets/pdfs/e_sum.pdf
now to ur queries:
1. Forms: these forms are needed to be completed by u & ur spouse individually same as the 'Additional Family Information Form'. this is used to verify ur/ ur spouse's history of address, occupation, foreign travel history. no need to get upset or worried. usually it is better to include these forms when sending full docs to LDN
just to ensure that they can start ur background/ security check asap.
to UK2CANADA, u can fill in this form today & send this form in a separate envelop tomorrow as they wrote ASAP. or u can just send it with ur RPRF as ur medicals will be sent by ur DMP.
2. Medicals: i refer to my previous post here.
to UK2CANADA, i just checked CIC website & ThorntonHeath DMP is listed there:
for medical, there are 4 DMPs in London---two in central london [Knights bridge (phone: 0207 589 8965) & Oxford Street (phone: 0207 307 8756)] , one in Thronton Heath (it's near a national rail station called 'west croydon') & one in Upminister (phone: 01708 220 478).
i called every single one of them. 3 of them are charging £300 per adult (i don't know if u have any kid) + courier charge. only Thornton Heath is charging £200 per adult + postal charge.
i went to Thornton Heath DMP (phone: 0208 684 4079). although it was a bit far from central London but it saved me £200 (as it were 2 adults---me & my wife). on top of that, i asked them if they can send it by Royal Mail Next Day Special Delivery if i pay extra £20 & they agreed. they r very friendly & they r open on every other saturdays. there is a receptonist called 'Lesley'. she is very nice & co-operative. i disturbed her so many times to check if my medicals were ok, she was never annoyed & helped me a lot.
one thing, u have to do the chest x-ray separately with a radiologist. but all radiologist r in waliking distance from the medical centre where u will have all other tests done.
remember to drink lots of water b4 medical & lots of rest, it really helps. but the whole medical is a piece of cake & very easy. no complex issues. they do say they can check ur medical history but i am not sure if they do not in reality.
3. RPRF: just pop in to ur local branch of ur bank and show then the instructions on the letter u just received. they will do the rest for u. it is exactly the same procedure s to when we sent initial fee to CIO.
please do not forget to write ur full name , date of birth & file number on the back of the RPRF draft.
good luck......................
