Pls kindly help clarify the following:
1. Am I to:
i. Download and fill a new BACKGROUND DECLARATION FORM (IMM 5669)?
ii. Provide a new POLICE CERTIFICATE different from the one earlier submitted?

2. When they say PROOF OF MEDICAL EXAMINATION, is the receipt of medical exam sufficient or do I have to go obtain a copy of medical results from the clinic I did my exam?

Pls I just want to be clear and certain of the actual step. Kindly assist with clarifications. That letter doesn't seem to be straightforward as regards the actual steps to take.
Request for the e-medical sheet or a certificate that shows that you have done the medical exam.they may be reluctant to give you the e-medical sheet but backup your request with the email from Accra.

1 if no changes has occur, just have to reprint your scheduled A form and then append your original signature but if any changes has taken place; fill a new form.
2 You will re-fill additional family information and stated where their is new family member but; if you don't have any new family member, i will advice you to just reprint the previous submitted family form then append your signature.
3 You have to go to the IOM or where you carried out the medical test to give you the copy of your medical result. You will attach the copy of the result and the receipt of payment as prove of medical taken.
4 You will need to get a new police certificate at Alagbon if you stay in Lagos (5k)

Thanks very much for your kind response and best wishes.

One more thing please, it wasn't stated WHERE or which address to send the passport to. How do I know where to send the passport to? Unlike at the beginning of the application in which the exact mailing address was provided for case processing. Although, mine is being handled by Accra. From what I'm seeing in the letter to Senator1 in this forum, it's kinda missing so many vital info on "how" and "where".

It's kinda frustrating.

Pls can you share your timeline?

Was it stated which particular VAC to send to i.e Accra or Lagos?
Heard some guys use DHL only...Can anybody confirm that here?. It's weird how VAC expect Nigerians to pay GHC to a Ghana Ecobank account, I expressed my challenge via mail and they responded I should look for someone in Ghana..what?...In this 21st century?...A simple credit card option will have solved all that.

I'm hoping somebody can answer these questions for me. My wife got her letter to send her passport yesterday and it did not list police clearance as a required document. Do we still need to do one?
Also, does anybody know how long it will take to get the passport back when you send it to Ghana VAC?

If they didn't request for a fresh police clearance certificate, then don't send it.. Maybe 3 weeks or 1 month

But the mail states "MEDICAL EXAMS AND POLICE CLEARANCES: This is relevant only if specifically requested and not already provided. If you must provide these documents, be sure to complete your medical exams and submit your police clearances either AT THE SAME TIME or BEFORE you submit your passport." Thus, if you had already provided one before getting a passport request, there is no need to go get another one.

That is my own understanding of that statement and i am not sure if there is any hidden meaning to it.

It’s my understanding that they send the results directly to IRCC unless you call the hospital and request for a copy of the results.That’s what I know...
