Hello everyone! It's been 3 month since we did our medicals but Our e-case still hasn't been updated. We check with medical office and they sent the medicals. Do you think I should email cic and ask if they have received the medicals?

If you have a mailing address in Canada: To allow you to track your passports through the mail, we strongly recommend that you purchase two (2) PREPAID Canada Post Xpresspost envelopes (National), letter-sized (318 x 241 mm), at any Canada Post retail outlet
- Complete the mailing label on one envelope showing your mailing address in the “Deliver To” field.
- Keep a tracking number sticker from each envelope.
- Fold and enclose the self-addressed envelope in the other envelope along with your passport(s) and a copy of this request letter.

We will not use registered mail or postage coupons. If you do not submit a return prepaid Xpresspost envelope or if you provide an envelope from any other courier, we will return your passport by regular mail.


This is the instruction I got. I sent my passport with a self-addressed xpressport envelop for them to mail back.

Hi everyone,
I resent my son's documents for adding him to my application.
Obviously they didn't get it the one I sent 5 weeks ago. It is always
Better to doble check.
I also sent prpf and Medicals, which I get from doctors office.
The doc created a UMI # for my son.
Will see what happens.
Hi Samnov,
1.Did you inform your VO first (via email) about adding your son to the application in order to receive Medical form for him as well?
2. Did you get any instruction from them?
3. What forms have you updated besides copy of son`s Birth certificate and passport?
Thanks

Hi everyone,

Is anyone in the same situation as me? I did my medical and pay my RPRF a year and a half ago and still waiting for PPR. I contacted CIC about 3 months ago and they said that my case in in process. I got my CAIPS note and everything has been passed but security which I think is being processed

Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Hi Mask2005:

That is terrible, may I ask, what is your country of origin and have you lived in many countries.

Thanks

The following link which I found useful may answer your questions about background verification:
