I checked my ecas no address as well.
I don't think missing address has any bearing on our status.
It just gives us hope that something is happening.

What date did your medical expire?
They asked us to sign more documents , but not re-medical. Ours expired Jan 4th and e-cas says in process.
my medical was expired Jan.2 but my ecas status is DM already. I am worried now.

I have a scanned copy of the medical report section A. it was dated January 21, 2012... As far as I know, you need to wait for their request of re-medical as you will show the DMP the request letter.
@Raniloc

When CEM sent the letter requesting for medicals, the section A form was included together with the old pictures pasted on the form. I was sent a scanned copy of the letter and the forms. I called different DMPs and 2 out 3 said that they need the original since it is being processeed by CEM. If it will be processed abroad then they will accept a scanned copy of the letter and section A form.

I was just asked to re-take the medicals and no mention of getting new NBI clearance considering that my first medicals was done september 2009 and thats when i got my NBI clearance as well.

Aahhh nakakastress, 1 month na 'In Process' sa eCAS, but CIC can't proceed since my FBI clearance hasn't arrived yet (ordered it last 12/27 and sent it through Canada Post from Wetaskiwin). I keep thinking that it's the only thing holding back my visa approval, and I'm totally pissed as to why I didn't request this earlier. I had two 5-month trips on 2008 and 2009 (separately) and I understood that you had to be in the country more than 6 months nonstop, it didn't occur to me that it was cumulative.

My wife is on her 3rd month of pregnancy now, all alone in Alberta... :'( Please, FBI, send me my clearance this week... :'(

So you only took the 2nd medical exam and did not ask to re-submit a new NBI clearance? As I know, NBI clearance also has an expiration. Im not sure though if it is 1 year or 6months.

yes. i wasnt asked for nbi clearance anymore. i guess if the papers have been reviewed and medicals expired before they were able to issue the visa then re-take nalang ng medicals and no need for additional documents. august last year they asked for additional documents from us and nbi clearance was not part of it either.
