I have a question. I am in the process of doing my medical, I checked the form that they sent and realized that they put my previous married surname on the form. Not the present surname will all the documents that were sent to them.
Can I use a web form sent in the correction?

Anyone who has received DM on ECAS, is that same status seen on GCKEY?
I have not got DM yet, but I am writing what I read from the forum.

On GCKEY , it never says DM.

The only update u see on GCKEY after Pre-Arrival, is application completed, and this happens when you have landed Or once the COPR is issued.

Also, not everyone receives Pre-Arrival, in case you did I not get, don’t stress.

Thanks

Hi,

I was wondering, my wife and I canceled my sponsorship application because it was an outside so we made it inside. That being said, I’m wondering if I leave the country (I’ve been here since July, and I can stay 6 months, then I can extend), for family reasons, then I return to Canada, after 2 months, what reason should I give them at the border ? Last time, I was with my Canadian spouse, it was easy; but now, I will be alone. Keep in mind, that I have no where to live, I left my job everything for my wife. So if I tell them, I will stay with my wife (which is true, we have a house, everything is settled), they might be concerned ? I don’t want to lie (I’ll stay only 6 month), because in reality, I’ll stay till a get my PR, and I will renew my extend every time, till I can’t, in that situation I’ll leave, I follow the rules.

Yes, nothing to panik about. ECAS is just means of medium to know the progress. Since, you already received Pre-Arrival, the next step is getting PPR, which you will receive on your e-mail.

So, don’t stress about retrieving ECAS.

(When DM is made on ECAS, the next step is PPR, which sometimes takes days to come).

Is your VO - New Delhi? and what’s your timeline?

Thanks

Is the PPR from NDVO(PA's country) or from VO (Where file was processed)

I have read this from couple of forums only.

If your spouse is in India, irrespective of which office issues you PPR, you have to send your passport in India VAC for stamping.
Got it. I have heard some view stating NDVO being slow which has bought this panic all together

Not fixed but usually (at least before covid) was a matter of days/a week, not multiple weeks.

What is your friend seeing in gckey/ecas, i.e. what does it specifically say about medical/medical results? (I mean it doesn't 'show' medical results, usually just a few words, can't recall offhand - I think 'passed' was all it showed in our case)

She can write/raise a webform to inquire, but that may not be quick.

Thanks for replying. ECAS just shows that they have sent medical instructions. And I am not sure about GCKey. Her lawyer told them that results aren’t received yet. Her country of birth was wrong. She didn’t get reply of that webform as well.
