There's a new procedure that will allow medical validity to be extended if your application processing is completed within 15 months of the original medical exam and the only thing stopping your application from final approved and PPR is the expiration of your medical results (or ability to reasonably land within the initial year-long validity).

Officers will now be able to submit a request for an extension of the medical exam result validity (as long as they were done within the last 15 months) and they can extend them for an additional 12 months without the need for an additional medical exam. The details are on the CIC website.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/bulletins/2012/ob423.asp

Hopefully this saves folks time and expense of extra medical exams.

Hello Guys,

My Application to sponsor my wife was received on Aug 24
Sponsorship was approved on Oct 9
Passport request was made on Nov 4 through email.
Passport was received at New Delhi office on Nov 7

My wife still has not received the passport back.
Its been a month now. How much concerned should I be?

Should she expect an interview call? Do interviews normally happen after the passport requests are made?

Please advice guys

Thank You

You shouldn't be concerned at all. Some people have sent their passport 4 months ago and they still haven't received it.

Hello all,

I'm traveling to Mumbai in 10 days from Toronto. I hold Canadian passport, and am not from Indian origin. I was wondering if anyone here knows how long does it take to get Indian tourism visa? I'm worried if it takes too long that I miss my flight.

Many thanks.

you can get the visa in three days.. just complete the online application, print it, take it to VFS, give money and they will call u when the visa is ready.
