ASA to all,
My mother has received further medical request with these wordings:
"Please contact Panel Physician within 07 days from the date of this email/letter for an appointment to comply
with this request. Failure to do so may result in the closing of your Immigration medical file, which
may result in the refusal of your application."
What does this seven days means.
1. Does it mean to get done medical in 7 days
2. Does it mean to contact IOM in seven days time and get an appointment?
3. Does these seven days include Saturdays and Sundays?

Please seniors and experienced, Kindly advise. I sent an email to IOM for appointment but no reply, calling them but just recording play, now they are off for Friday prayers then I think their day is done, then Saturday and Sunday holidays, seven days deadline, my head is spinning.

Salam,
When you call IOM for an appointment and you listen to that recording do not hang up,stay on line for few more minutes (5-15) and they will answer your call.According to letter you have to contact IOM within 7 days to get an appointment and i think 7 days are only working 7 days.
And when did your mother has the 1st medical done? as my mother had a medical about 2 weeks ago in lahore and no reply yet after that.

Did she had any issues with her health in the past? did you receive an email regarding further medical or did medical center called her regarding additional medical?

@ alhassn my mother received email from Delhi medical which is regional head quarter for medical. By the way do you know what are IOM timings for taking appointment over phone, I think they play the recordings " aap email phar bhi appointment lay sakta hain" 24x7 but only pick the phone in working hours only. Perhaps they haven't made recording which says "our offices are closed now, you may call between .......Monday to Friday however you may also take appointment through email, our email address is .........". They only have this recording: press 2 for Canadian health assessment, your call will be transferred to first available agent, then they have this "dear caller aap email phar bhi appointment lay sakta hain". Thus caller remain in dark whether he is in working hours or off hours. I hope IOM make changes to this recordings which exactly guide the called that he/she is in off hours and should inform about office hours.

I think if you try early morning about 9 am, u will get answered.when i have to get appointment i had the same issue that every time there was a recording and i hang on,then i send them email to get appointment but i never get any reply,then i called at islamabad number again and remained online for about 15 mins and get answered.so i would say try their number and remain on line for about 10-20 mins and i am sure ur call will get answered. By the way what date ur mother completed her first medical and where?

Return Ticket or One Way Ticket?

Medical of my mother is done and passport was already with the CHC Islamabad and we are waiting for the passport.
As I have learnt that one gets an entry for 2 years to stay in Canada on a Super Visa, is it possible to travel on a One Way Ticket? Because a two way ticket will be wastage of money (I dont think any airlines return ticket stays valid after 2 years).
Anyone with a similar experience is requested to share views.
Thanks

Hello everyone,

I am new to the thread/forum and would appreciate some help.

I am in process to apply for my parents' super visa application from Islamabad.

My sister will be submitting the application in VAC Islamabad.
I have supplied the following documents from my side to support the application:

* Letter of Invitation
* Letter from my employer/my husband employer stating title, and salary etc
* Proof of parental relation (my birth certificate)
* Proof of medical insurance for one year

That's all what was requested in the documents check list from CIC website. Do I need to provide any other documents to support their application?

--Someone mentioned that Letter of Invitation has to be notarized. Is that a requirement as well?
--Do I need to supply my notice of assessment even though they are only asking for a " Letter from employer" or "Notice of assessment".
-- Someone mentioned that medical can be done before hand. what would be the process for that?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sadia

Salam Sadia,

For super visa,u have to provide recent NOA and it has to be more than LICO (it's compulsory).Secondly, yes Invitation letter has to be notarized.As far as up front medical done is concerned i don't think so.First you will file the application and bio-metric at VAC,then if everything goes right after about 30-45 you will get the email regarding medicals.Provide your bank statement for last 3 months as well.

@alhassan thank you very much for your quick reply.

I will definitely provide the current NOA and Bank statement from last 3 month to support the application.

Just wondering, what is the process to get Invitation Letter notarized? Thanks,
