haha I called him as well and he is on vacation for the next two weeks :)

I ended up getting an appointment with a doctor in Toronto.

I think, there must be many medical requests released by CIC since past few days. cos i saw in his clinic that people just dropped by to do their medicals without appointment. Anyways i heard that Dr. John from etobicoke is also good. Couple of frds went there for medicals.

Thanks very much for the reply. Hopefully this is a sign of things starting to move quickly!

I'll need to find the spreadsheet! I've seen one before that seemed to be used for FSW1 applications since May. Is yours in with that, or is it a different spreadsheet? Since you can't post links, is there anyone you can point me to who has the correct one in their signature, and I'll get it from there?
Sorry, is it the one in your signature?

Thanks again,

Graham.
Here is the spreadsheet

Literally a day between status change and medical request
So your eCAS says "We started processing your application on Nov 18, 2013" and you got an email for medical request on Nov 19?

Hello Mani,

Its happened to me last few months ago. Then I called CIC call center and found that from CIC they put my family name as my first name. After that they told me to send an email and they fixed it. I asked what could be the reason for that. The agent told me may be any office had worked on my file that time. So if you feel call CIC. Hope it helps!

Guys just a tip - plan ahead of your medical request. What I mean by that is, look up your local doctors (info available on CIC website) that are authorized to do medicals and start calling to schedule medicals or at least check on their next availability. I happen to be in GTA and I had tough time getting a medical appointment. These doctors are booked solid.. Good luck..

P.S. keep checking your spam folders just in case your medical request landed there.
Hi vik81

Thanks for tip. How can I check medical offices in US? Currently i'm in Phoenix. I sent my FBI PCC with file in DEC 2012. My wife joined me in USA in Oct 2012. Will they ask her for FBI PCC or for me again? If you think yes, then I can apply next month for FBI PCC for both of us.

BTW congrats ! :D

Was your application received by CIO before 1st July 2012? If so then you are part of the earlier "MI2" batch and this might be why. Also, are you American?

Hi Bsingh,

You can check online for CIC approved physicians. Seems like there is only one in the state of Arizona.

City: Scottsdale
Name: Kim David Johnson
Address: 8520 E. Shea Blvd., Suite #105,
Arizona
85259
Telephone: 480-269-4168
Spoken Languages: English

Check on the following link for others:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/pp-md/pp-list.aspx

As far as FBI clearance for your wife, since she has been in the US for more than 6 months, CIC will request one for her as well. Good luck
