Hello everyone,
Just wanted to give an update and have a few questions answered. I will give you a bit of a run down on the status of our application. Anyone with any information would be helpful. Thanks so much!

Was unable to link account on ecas until 4-18-2017
As of yesterday, 6-11-2017 there had been no updates on my online account. Then I checked and myself and three dependents are now listed there on the screen with our UCI numbers. I called the IRCC centre and the automated system advised me that we need medical checks and to check online account for instructions. Our eligibility and background checks have been pending for 6 months....still no news in that area. When I checked the online account for instructions for medical checks...it states your action is required but when I click there to check messages, there are none. Not sure what I am suppose to do now? Should I go ahead and call to set an appointment for medical checks even though I don't have any forms or instructions? How long does it typically take to do the eligibility for sponsorship part and the background checks because I feel that 6 months is quite a long time. I'm unsure how this whole process works and in what order and I presume being to the part of having medical checks requested is a good thing, but does it go pretty quickly from there? Also, it states I have 30 days to get the medical checks turned in...is this going to be enough time? Please advise.
