Hi Mimikoms, most people would applied before Dec 15th 2016 would have done an upfront medical or did it at SA/file transfer. It's only those who applied after Dec 15th who cannot do an up-front medical, and have to wait for CIC to request one. Therefore, it cannot really be determined how long it will take for you to be asked. I can imagine it won't be for a while, and probably not until right before they want to issue PR, that is my assumption, as the medical can be done and received by CIC immediately and your visa is good for a year from the date you do your medical. Anyone who was asked for a re-medical (as their's expired before PPR was given) did so and heard from CIC within the week about their PPR. Sorry I don't have a better answer for you. Really you'll just have to wait and see what happens with other people's applications as those who applied after December 15th start to hear from CIC about their applications.
Thanks @becos. I applied before December 15th but wasn't aware I could do medical school and I wasn't on this wonderful forum then. Thanks for the response, it sure helped.

Our app marks 8 months of processing today. I'm packing for an out of country wedding with all of my friends and their spouses... I will be the only single one there. Missing my husband so much. As the weather gets nicer, I pray he gets here soon to enjoy the beautiful warmth of Canada. Maybe while I'm away this week good news will reach us all.
I know exactly how you feel sista. I'm praying for a reunion for all july/august/September applicants by June this year!

Ohh I didn't realize you had applied before then, I mixed that up from our previous conversation. In a way it's better that you didn't do it... you'll probably save money. Ours expires in five weeks, there is no way they won't make us remedial at this rate. we thought we would have our app in by the end of June when we did the medical at the end of May last year, however it took us a little longer getting a few documents together than we thought and didn't get it out until the end of August. it seems that happens to a lot of people. Not many are organized enough to do the medical the day before they apply lol

I'm kinda glad I didn't do it upfront cos I would hate to pay again to get another one done.
I hope you get a response soon. Thanks for your response
