May 19 - Submitted online application
May 21 - Application apparently got updates but upon checking, nothing changed
May 25 - Still the same update email but not change in status

Should I be worried that it's going to be 12 days now and I still did not receive any medical request?

By the way, for those who do upfront medical, is change of medical status a good sign?

Cause, in the case of paper application, the visa office only request for medical check in (nearly) the final stage of the process, right?

Actually, for Medical exams, the CIC will process them faster, because if an applicant doesn't clear the medical, there is no point processing the application and wasting their efforts further. Hence, a change of medical status really means nothing - except that your application is not eliminated on medical grounds early on in the process.
As far as I know, even for applications without medical, they issue the Medical request and process background check/ document verification in parallel to optimize time.
