Hi - Garry 1263, MANU07, Singhraminder, RegPrav,

Thanks for your reply guys. Guess we all are more or less in the same boat with no clue as to what is the next action to be taken by NDVO ?

Could you share which respective dates your medical got expired - very strange not to receive any communication for the next step ? Hope some officer is working on ours respective files ? Our medical is expiring in the next 40 days as well.

Let's hope for the best guys !!!

Don't think we can do anything here except WAIT. Thank you to all.

Hello,

Today on myCIC I noticed status for "additional documents are required please check your message" has changed to "We need more documents to continue processing your application. We will send you a message with more details"
I noticed people saw additional documents message earlier and contacted CIC to which they said its a system glitch and not to worry about it.
Can anyone tell if they are seeing this updated message?

I just checked my file, the message has changed from " We need additional documents to process your application . Check your messages below for details." to " We need more documents to continue processing your application. We will send you a message with more details." I am not sure exactly when this change occurred, I had not noticed it and probably would have not, had I not seen your post.

Congratz! Our timeline is similar (i.e. medicals done Jan 2017), I just checked my account it still shows background check hasn't started yet...

Just wondering under "Review of additional documents", what does it show for you? Have you ever had "We need more documents to continue processing your application. We will send you a message with more details" prior to background checked changed to "in progress"

Thx!

Hello everyone,

Need to update you guys, today when I checked my mycic status after Medicals got expired on July 25, found the note has changed as "You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes." But ECAS Says "Medical Results have been received"

Congrats. I think, very soon you will get passport request. What was the message for background check before in Process? For me, It's "not started" from beginning and it never changed.

Hi, I am sure you must be calling CIC within Canada and if your file is being processed outside of Canada they can not really tell you if LVO really needs something from you or not. I really hope that this is just a system glitch but if LVO needs something then we should contact the LVO directly. Can anyone else support us on this message? or are we the only 3 people who are seeing this update?

Anyone from Jan 2016 PGP application, I have received an email with the sponsorship approval in March 2017 and file transferred to Ottawa office. I haven't received anything (i.e. Medical or PCC etc..) after that. Is it the same for everyone?
did you link you file to MYCIC? it's more informative resource

I have the same update on my mother-in-law's case -
We need more documents to continue processing your application. We will send you a message with more details.

She had her medical exam in March this year and is staying with us in Canada.

Thanks, hopefully, its a passport request (in terms of requirement of more documents :))
