Hey guys,

I got a message in my portal yesterday asking for a new medical. I had my original one done in March 6th 2020 so it should be valid until Mar 6 2021?

Has anyone else got a similar request? I presumed they were extending stuff like this (similar to how they handled biometrics) because of the pandemic and their extended timelines causing people's stuff to expire.

Am I just going to have to suck it up and pay the $300 for a new medical?

Thanks! (AOR July 2020)

Unfortunately, yeah, you have to do it again. It’s the regional medical officer’s decision whether to extend your medicals or not.

If they requested it I think there is little you can do to avoid it. 280$ is about the standard...
 
Fair enough, thanks both. I managed to find a place that had a slot early next week so hopefully it doesn't delay my application too much. When I called a few months ago they said I was recommended pass so I'm hoping this is the last part they need to issue my COPR (fingers crossed)
