Hi victorialad did u ever saw any update regarding ur medical on e-cas? I have heard they usually update it one month prior to request for a PPR.
BTW how many months Singapore took to send ur PPR... Plz let us know ur timeline with e-cas update in a bit details. coz My application started processing in Singapore since sept 23 2010. since then i havent heard anything from them.
Hi Sadatul,
The medical exam was done prior to the application and sent by IOM to Singapore. I received an update on E-CAS about the medical results being received about 2 weeks before the passport request.
The application was transferred to Singapore July 9. I did not hear anything from Singapore after that, until the update regarding the medical results being received.
The letter approving the visa was sent on Sept 7, but it came to me in Canada, because my wife and I had used the "representative" form. I had to then send the letter to Vietnam, and my wife submitted her passport on Oct 9.
The passport request letter contained the my wife's file number, and now when she checks E-CAS it says "in progress". I believe the status really should be "decision made" but they have not updated it yet.
So, overall, the timeline was very quick, much quicker than I was expecting. We have been very fortunate.
