Should my spouse take a medical exam ??

Hi,

After ITA and I will be doing my medical exam in Canada. My spouse is in India and she's not planning to come to Canada soon. So the PR application is only for me. My wife did her medical exam last year November when she got her dependent work permit.

So my question is, should my wife do her medical exam again?? IRCC clearly states that

"If you apply for permanent residence, you must have an immigration medical exam. Your family members must also have a medical exam, even if they’re not coming with you. "

Will her previous medical exam be still valid?? If so, how do I provide this information to IRCC ??

Medical exams are typically good for 12 months before they expire. So, if the process is complete before November, she may not need to do medicals again. Does her GCKey account have the details of the medical report?

The GCKey account says "You passed the medical exam."
Not sure where to find the medical report. From the correspondence letter to do a medical exam, I was able to get the Immigration Medical Exam number.
Will this be enough or I would require the full medical report?

I'm not 100% confident but I believe the IME is enough.
