Medical Exam when extend to stay after PR application

[anthonyjr]

Hi all,
I've submitted our outland (but living in Canada) sponsorship application. My wife and my children's first 6 months in Canada as visitors will expire later next month. Now I'm extending their stay as visitors (since no AOR received yet, I'm unable to apply for her SOWP yet).
My questions is about the Medical Exam. Extending stay for more than 6 months requires medical exam for my wife and the 2 children. Is this Medical Exam the same with the one in PR application? Since no Medical Exam request from PR application yet, if we complete Medical Exam for the extension now, will we have to do that again when PR application requests?
Or should I just hang on on the Medical Exam, said No on the questions "Will your family member be getting a medical exam before you submit their application?", submit the extension application without Medical Exam (just to keep maintained status), and wait for the AOR then apply for the SOWP?
Thank you

Are you sure you answered correctly? Have they lived in one of the designated countries for over 6 months in the past year?

Hi,
Yes, they came here about 5 months ago. So in the past 12 months, they lived in our country (required Medical Exam) for more than 6 months.

Then they should do a medical. It is valid for a year so can be used for PR.
