I'm looking at your timeline and I am curious, have they asked you for re-medical as you did it in Aug 2015? You could be one of those given a restricted time to land of asked to redo your medical. Whichever is the case, you will be smiling soon.

*Mandie*

It's a mistake mandie...I go the the dates messed up....my medical was done on July 4th 2015 so it's has been past already but they haven't requested for re-medical yet...

OK. I'm sure they will contact you for re-medical sooner than later. Hang in there.

Hello everyone. So happy to have found this forum. It gives me life and with all the information I've gathered here I can now set my mind on reality. Its 8-11 months journey if ur case is pretty much straight forward. My boo can bet it won't take more than 6mnths but am already preparing my mind.

We ll be sending in our application next month. God I pray for favour and all d best for everyone already on the line.

as you have followed instructions on the letter, you have nothing to worry about. The clinic will send your medical result directly to CIC. So just sit down and relax for our dear AVO to contact you for the next steps.

Hi Guys, there is one thing I am not sure and want to find out just in case I need to do something about it, I left Ghana since 2007 and have being residing in China since, in 2009 I came back just for a month and got a police criminal check certificate for my entire stay in Ghana. Since then I haven't live in Ghana so in my application I used the 2009 police criminal certifate with a current one I got in China for the first day I enter China till date. Is it ok for that old police clearance I used for Ghana the as my last criminal check for Ghana or CIC will ask me for a new one. I want to know so that if they is a need for me to me working on a new one before they ask me so that it doesnt cause any delay for my application. Thanks to all member of this house for you valuable advice!

All your criminal record must be a current one and upto date ....
I concur. It should be issued no more than 3 months before you send your application. They will ask you for a new police certificate for Ghana.

Typically you won't hear anything until they need further documentation from you. If they don't, their next communication with you would be to request for your pasport....which involves months upon months of waiting. AVO is working on average processing time of 9 months. So be patient.

Thanks very much Mandie and Walesme, so in this case can I get a new Police clearance and send to AVO or I should wait till I get a request for it. Also how long does it take to get a police clearance in Ghana currently? Thanks!

Yes, they will ask you for a current police clearance from ma Ghana, I schooled in ghana 2005-2009,and did not include a ghana police clearance in my application initially. But after my application was approved in Canada and transfered to Accra visa office. When accra sent me my Passport request mail, they said I should send my passport, together with police clearance from Ghana and Nigeria. so you should prepare your mind to do another one. also the CID police office at accra Will probable tell you it takes 10working days for the police clearance, but u can talk to someone that ur working with d embassy's deadline, and u can get d police clearance in 3working days. I started mine on a Friday and got it the next Tuesday by 4pm. Urs can be earlier if u know ur way arround. Then remember they charge non-residents(Ghanaians who haven't lived in ghana for more than 3months stretch ,1200ghc for it, then Ghanaian citizens ,100ghc)
