Hey CharlizeRai,

My medicals are expiring in March 2013 so I`m thinking if by the end of this month I still have no news from Bucharest VO to pass a new medical examination without being requested so I don`t waste precious time later. Is that a good idea? Any other opinions are welcome!

Regards!

Hmmm. I am under the impression that whenever the embassy says jump, we say how high. I always assumed that we wait on them to tell us whether or not we redo it, or they request an extension. To be honest, I'm not sure what takes more time. And it sounds like they may request an extension regardless.

It would be nice if there was some way to speak with someone at the embassy!

Try searching old posts on the forum about this, I do recall a lot of people talking about this exact dilemma.

Good luck! My husband's medicals expire April 12, so we're not that far behind. Let me know if you learn something new.

Hello guys,

VO really working of our files for sure ofcourse is very slow but they are working.

Its not a good idea to redo medicals untill they asking to. You need your personal medical file number that you don``t have so far, only Bucharest and London has it. VO send you this number only if they request a new medical exam from you. With this number you will be able to do a new medical test.

Every additional paper you send makes delays your file. I think everything gos like into a circle.

Be patient guys, hard to say I know but we don`t really have a choice here.

And you are right Charlize, when CIC says jumb we say how high....unfortunately.

Hi deshulina, I also don`t know the answer of your question. I hope someone else can help.
CharlizeRai, I was thinking about the same things lately plus that my passport is expiring in 11.11.2013 so most probably I`ll need to renew it as well if we have delays with the medicals. My ecas still is on `application received`. A month ago I wrote to Bucharest VO with some changes in my employment and asked them when they`ve received our file (trying to be smart). Guess it didn`t work :-X
Few days ago we payed the RPRF and sent copies of the receipts to Bucharest VO and CPC Mississauga. Today my husband got this e-mail:
`Information regarding online payment is available at (click on the link “Immigration” for instructions about payment for Family Class application):
https://services3.cic.gc.ca/epayweb/Welcome.do
Please mail the original proof of payment to the Case Processing Centre in Mississauga. Once received from Case Processing Centre in Mississauga that the fee has been paid we will have the system updated.`
So...we have already sent 2 copies of the receipts but why is this e-mail?We can`t reach the link - it shows error! What means `the original proof of payment` - we have a copy of electronic receipt? May be CPC Mississauga haven`t updated the system yet? Or we have sent it to the wrong place?
If anyone can show me the light here pls!
On other hand I feel kind of good that at least we got some news 8)
Regards and keep smiling! The time is passing, no way back :)
Sometimes could be just an electronical response which is always the same no matter what.

Wait a bit and you will see.

Hope everything will be more clear very soon for you.

Hello guys, I have quick question, if I get visiting visa, how big is the percentage of getting a extension on it, so we know should we go with an in-land application or not.
Hard to get a visitor visa considering you are visiting your boyfriend.

I tryed and I was refused.

You may have more luck than I had. :)

Good for you, Mat!

I am in the same situation but my wife sent her x-ray to Ottawa. I hope that the proforma "time limit" is the same as for London (about 5-6 weeks).
My procedure has begun at the beginning of December 2011. I still can't believe that we are In progress at this moment.

Good luck to all of you!

But It must be near!

Champagne time :)
