profiler said:So, bit of a funny story...
My manager is Indian-born Brit (grew up in Manchester; yes he has the mouth of a sailor).
I told him about the medical, so he knew I would be cutting out of work early that day. I remarked that it was wasteful. He then told me, it reminded him of his journey to Canada with his family (IEC; he is a PhD in Computational Physics).
When he went, the medicals were different. But also, he pointed out that they demanded he go to the local community college for IELTS testing. His reaction, was priceless...
"English test? You've godda be f*&^ing kidding me. English?? $300??"
Apparently the oral portion of the test was "funny". Considering his heavy English accent, and that he uses terms like "sod-off", "bollocks", etc. I can see where it would prove funny.
Imagine... CIC asked an Englishman to do English tests...

Matthars? Polar? Updates?

Yup, use the link profiler just posted.
Find your MP, call...arrange a meeting and wait for the info.
Application was received March 10th 2016 ,and I sent Medicals March 24th 2017....And got AIP twice.profiler said:If memory serves, Matthars had something similar, where they were just sitting in a holding pattern for some time. Today, we found out that they were the lucky winners of a QA Interview.
I have my suspicions that may be the case here.... What was your received date again?
Sorry, such a bad memory on this old body...
