    Got PR card in the mail today - ending my epic 7 year journey to PR status. For those who just landed recently, don't book any (air) travel just yet, the 67 days their quoting for first time PR cards isn't too accurate. Best of luck all!

    Congrats on your PR. I was told at Carway it would be 4-6 weeks for PR Card. Also, I think PR card or visa is only needed if you're flying in (or other commercial trans.). If you drive your own car, you only need COPR or Record of Landing...

    That's awesome news! Did you send copies or your actual passport(s)?

    Much as I wish that was the case, it doesn't seem "Decision Made" on ecas corresponds with COPR being issued. I'm beginning to suspect it's a delayed update that should correspond with my PPR. Anyone have a different experience?

    If your application is straight forward, the "processing" bit is just checking that the background checks came back clean, medical passed, your sponsor has enough money, etc. It's literally hours, not days of work. If something is amiss, then "processing" is weeks and months of correspondence...

    My has e-cas changed to medical results received. More importantly, received the PPR email. They only requested my passport and 2 passport photos.

    Medical exam validity extension for additional 12 months (new CIC Bulletin)

    Congrats on the approval! As you can tell from this thread and elsewhere on this forum, there is no standard processing time for medicals. From what I can see it varies wildly depending on when you completed them, who your doctor was and which Regional Medical Office (RMO) they were sent to. My...

    Medical Exam Validity Extension - Let's share our timelines!

    Got request to re-do medicals on Jan 30th. VO requested med extension from Ottawa-HMB on the same day the emailed me for the re-do. Per March GCMS notes, VO has no results of my re-do AND no indication of approval of the extension by HMB.

    That's exactly what the email I received looked like. Came through my attorney though, so I saw her email first and she had attached CPP-O's super vague email. Glad that happened as with a subject line of "Information about File xxx..." it could have resulted in some premature jumping over the...

    That's great news, hopefully that was the last thing holding up your file. My guess is that ecas is customarily several weeks behind and the VO is done with the medical part of your application. Time for you to start logging on to ecas every day now :)

    Rattles, had you submitted an Australian clearance with your application and it expired or did you never submit one at all before this? I'm wondering now that I had to renew my medical if I should preemptively order new police clearances. I haven't been to those countries since the last...

    FYI for those who get a request to redo medical, plan for a long wait. If you can afford it, I'd advise doing one before an anticipated request if it'll save you the headache i'm going through. Wish I had. "Thank you for your email, Due to a large volume of applications and medical results...

    Interesting. Mine used to say "application received" + "medical results received". Then it went to "in-process" and nothing about medical results after I had to redo them. I understand your frustration. Hopefully there's some movement soon...

    @moochops - does your ecas show medicals received (to reflect the latest ones you submitted)?
