I am preparing documents for EE CEC. From Aug this year IRCC requires an upfront e-medical. I submitted it almost 2 years ago for Working holiday permit. I've never gone out of Canada so far. Should I do it again? Some say I should some do not. So confusing. Please share your opinion and help!!

No, you don't need to redo it. There's a temporary policy that allows you to use your previous medicals which was done within 5 years. Just submit the one you did before.

You may be exempt from completing another IME if you meet all of these conditions:
  • you applied or are applying for either permanent residence or temporary residence
  • you already live in Canada
  • you completed your previous IME in the last 5 years
  • your previous IME indicated a low risk or no risk to public health or public safety
