I also must add this is the sequence of events regarding medicals if you are an inland applicant. If you are outland then it can either be extended or you can be asked to do medicals again. Depends on RMO evaluation.
Yes mine is FSW Outland. I hope they get extended. Let’s see what update I get.

Thank you so so much!! @legalfalcon
Based on what you said, I think it started making more sense now. Thanks a lot!!

It seems like Review Required for my Stat Questions, my husband's Stat Questions and his FBI Report. My PCC and my husband's PCC are okay.
Am I understanding it correctly? Thanks again!
Yes, that is correct. And RR for stat questions is very common, so no need to be concerned.

Thank you so much!

In the end of very long assessment of my intl work experience, case analyst wrote ''CRS Foreign work: 4 years and 4 months. FSW work 0 year(s) and 0 month(s) of 1 year(s)-REVIEW REQUIRED CRS Foreign Work: 3+ year(s)'' Can you please help me what it means in a simple language? What does it mean when they
say FSW work and FSW points? Is it different than CRS points?

In the work experience assesment section, case analyst said that my employer's official website was found and job description was consistent with the
lead statemetn etc., it was basically good, but I am wondering why it requires a review in the end.

Thanks again so much @legalfalcon

Hi @caipsnotes Thanks so much!! Can you take a look at this following passage? I read this last night, and I almost had a heart attack.... Mine says my eligibility is
required review, but it does say 'ready to finalize' in the end. This part here says if review required for eligibility, then you are in 'muddy water'... In my summary notes, it says the US visa refusal 10 years ago needs to be reviewed. I got a long term visa now, so should I be worried about this.
Then when I go down, there are different notes say my intl work experience and my stat question, my husband's FBI report and his stat questions required review. Everything else seems fine. Am I in muddy water? Is it normal to have review required for all these things?

As for stat questions, only thing I said yes was US tourist visa refusal 10 yrs ago, and now I have 10 year visa to US. My husband had DUI in US a long time ago, about which he had to answer yes to a stat question. It appears on his FBI report as well.

I really really appreciate your help. any insight is greatly appreciated....

the passage I read:
It is the content of the note that is important here. If the review required is for a specific document, while the summary of the note says that an applicant has met the eligibility, or “ready to finalize” it simply means that while the applicant has met the eligibility criteria, but the specific document needs a careful examination form the officer before promoting (eligibility pass) by the officer.

However, if there are concerns, there will be a review required for the eligibility, and there will be no text to the effect “ready to finalize” or pass.
The note will specifically state job duties do not match, or the employment cannot be verified, or the number of years of work experience claimed cannot be verified. This is where an application can land in muddy waters. But the final decision rests on the immigration officer. He may override the decision of the analyst / assistant or go with the analysis of the analyst / assistant.
RR in itself doesn't seem anything to be concerned about, you have provided/answered the questions related to it and now it's for the officer to look it over and make a decision. Just have to wait at this time. All the best

Are there candidates here who have the validity of their medicals near expiry? And still have not recieved copr
@fahad_61 & @pbhanot, I got my meds extended on August 13, 2020 for an extra year. They expired on July 30, 2020. According to my GCMS notes, reassessment for extension was asked on August 12, 2020 and granted the day after. Since that day, the notes say that my application "seems RFV". No update so far.

Did you notice a change in your profile? Did it go from "you passed the medical exam" to "you dont need"? Or you were able to know from the GCMS notes?

Thank you for the update @LaurieD , a few questions for you which might add more clarity to this issue.

1) Are you Inland or Outland ?
2) What does your medical say currently, when you login? Passed or Do not need?
3) Lastly, what is your AOR?

Personally, I think your file is just pending for a final officer review before the approval. It can happen anyday now.
