Don’t worry buddy everything will be fine… panel doctors don’t make decision on your medicals results…CIC does and even CIC won’t reject your application like that they will send you furtherance for more test and your parents needs to be seriously sick to fail medicals… which I don’t they are otherwise your doctor would have called you instead you calling them. Stay positive it all going to work out.. thanks
Hi, My parents got their medical done on June 4th. They are here in Canada on Super visa. Today I called the doctor to see if she had submitted the Medical results and the office said it has been submitted yesterday but for my mom, she wants to see her again to discuss the chest Xray. Any idea how this process works. Even if the results are not ok, do they send it to immigration? Any information would be appreciated. I am really nervous. Thank you.
I took my mom for the follow up on Friday, June 23rd and report says there is no sign of TB but she has thickening of the Trachea wall so the radiologist has suggested for a CT scan. The Dr. said it could be something or nothing. She said CIC has their own radiologist and they might be ok or might ask for additional tests. I am not sure how to get a CT scan done here in Toronto as she doesn't have a family doctor and needs a requisition form. Any suggestion or advice would be helpful. Also on the CIC account the status still shows 'We have requested Medical exams' Haven't heard from CIC either. The medical results were submitted on June 17th. Thank you!

Hi all,
Great posts on this thread. I am super excited to join this forum....
I applied to sponsor my Mother on June 15, 2017, received a notification from CIC for Medicals on May 15, 2018, submitted medicals on June 14th 2018 and on June 24th CIC requested additional information (this request came from New Delhi, India) - contacted the Medical Centre and was told a Chest X-Ray and Cardio tests are required which has been scheduled for June 26th.
Received Police Certificate request on June 05 and submitted on June 08 2018 (actually submitted a CVC), havent heard back from CIC.
Managed to link the paper application online finally this morning after a zillion attempts over the last few months.

because it's also about volume. Look at how many people are coming from a certain place, and how many are coming from other corners.
Not a good enough reason to re-do medical and miss again. There should be a timeline. The whole point of the new system was that there WILL BE a timeline and that is failing.

Hi
I am new here.
I had applied for sponsorship of my parents in 2011. It has been 7 yrs since. My parents have had 2 Medical’s and police check. And again they have another email from cic to have the medical done for the 3rd time. 6 months ago , through an Mp I was able to find out that they are taking time due to background research. How much more time will they take
It’s so frustrating.
That's BS - Background check is what they give as general reason. It's not true. No organization takes that long to background check. All third parties or RCMP etc have timelines and they respond. Your parents are on the old system and no one gets to it on time I think. So medicals keep expiring and since GOV doesn't keep track of old applications or care so long as 80% is cleared rest fall through the cracks. I sympathize with you.

That CIC panel doctor can refer you to the specialist. I will advise contact that panel doctor or you can contact specialist on your own and they charge you per visit unless you have insurance. hope this helps

One add-on to Sunny's reply--- even you can find a specialist for your own, you still need the CIC panel doc to send a referral for you Cuz there are some forms that the panel doc needs the specialist to complete.
