if a person's multiple entry super visa expires in Nov 2018, and if s/he is already outside of the country, do they have to come back to Canada 6months before the visa expires?
No. For certain countries, one has to enter Canada with at least 6-month validity on his/her passport. This restriction doesn't apply to visas.

also, someone mentioned here that you can apply to extend the multiple entry visa within Canada now (does not have to apply from outside Canada)? is that true?
You can perhaps apply for a new visa from Canada (not exactly sure). But you can certainly apply to extend your stay.

Just a heads up, I applied for my mom's supervisa (paper application, dropped at VFS Mumbai and being processed in Bangalore VO)
With upfront medicals and passport sent along with application.

Timeline:
21/03/2017 - Dropped Application at the VFS.
22/03/2017 - Received a mail from VFS saying it's been forwarded to Bangalore or Delhi
23/03/2017 - Tracked the application ID using VFS tracking - Which mentioned the application is being processed in Bangalore VO
23/03/2017 - Successfully linked the application on cic's site

No AOR as of yet, Not sure if Bangalore VO would send one or if there would be any other updates.

The status on the CIC site is:
Where is this application? Details
Application status We received your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you.
Review of medical results You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes.
Review of additional documents Not applicable.
Interview You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.
Biometrics We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes.
Final decision Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.

Sorry about the long message with detailed statuses, just thought it would help some one. :)

Shall keep the forum updated as info on paper based applications is scarce. This might help someone.

Cheers!

Applied online on March 17, 2017
Medical request on March 23, 2017
Medicals done on March 30, 2017
No passport request yet.

Note: Received along with medical request a letter asking to submit letter informing number of people in family in Canada. Probably this is to match the LICO with the NOA i submitted. I informed 3 people in a letter made by my consultant and added a marriage certificate for my spouse and birth certificate for my son. Deadline to submit the information and medicals April 22, 2017 !

Wish you all the best.

Was it an online application or a paper based application?
