1) Thanks for getting back to me so soon. I was able to edit the table again, with your exact dates
. (After a post gets old, it can no longer be edited, but apparently my table post was still new enough for me to edit it for you again.)
2) Your representative is correct, in that they do SOMETIMES extend medicals. It doesn't happen very often for outland applications, though. My consultant also told us that if they extended, it would be by 3-6 months. However, you really won't know if they extend or make you redo the medicals until they tell you; there's no way to know for sure. For us, they extended them -- and by almost 11 months! They had already approved me for PR and were ready to issue my visa before my medicals expired, though. So you never know. Best thing I can say is just to wait for instructions from them, because you don't want to spend time and money on redoing the medicals, just to find out you didn't have to.
@ medellinguy and jiyamano: Congrats!
. There is no "Visa arrived" column in our table, but I eagerly await when I can mark you guys as "landed"! Only a matter of time now.
