Hello. June 2019 application for my parents. Have a few questions. Any responses welcome.

- How do I find out where their application is processing and how long it will take?
- If mid-2021 they visit me here in Canada and a request for medical comes, can we choose a medical location in Canada?

Thank you.

Hello everyone,
my question is about parents medical and your inputs will be really helpful.

My parents are 63 and are healthy with only thing as below:
2 years back my mother underwent surgery for benign tumor (non cancerous) and it only needs surgery for removal. She took medicine for sometime for blood clots post surgery and is good after that.
Has anyone had similar experience? and any inputs will be helpful.

Cheers!

I ordered the GCMS and received it last week. It seems all passed (eligibility, criminal, security, info sharing), the medical passed and expired, just waiting for "medical reassessment". I guess it means no need to redo the medical exam, but for healthy officer to reassess the previous IME and extend it.
Any idea how long the medical reassessment may take to finish?
Today I checked mycic account, it says "
  • December 4, 2020 You passed the medical exam.
"
Seems the IME gets extended. Don't know how long it is extended though, it could be 1 year?

yes, the person comes home. If you go to the vfs website, all the details are there. About the procedure and teh step by step process. the email ID is also found there.

I used this email.

<passportsubmission@vfshelpline.com>;
true SiriA. I saw it, but 1 way courier service mention there not 2 way service. For that reason i asked you SiriA. after passport stamping bluedart send back the passport or VFS?

Hi All,

I checked my CIC account today and instead of "submitted", it was showing "application updated" or something similar but when I clicked on “check full application status”, there were no new messages. Does anybody know what is going on?

When you login into cic account, you will see Current status shows ‘application/profile updated’, and when you click on Check full application status, there is nothing changed actually. Then when you go back to main home, Current status will show ‘submitted’.

Nothing to worry about, but if the medical is not done yet let her prepare everything related to the surgery because they will ask her about it and any x-rays as well good luck

Hello Admin,
Medical Request IME Date: September 3rd, 2020
PCC Request Date: September 3rd, 2020
Biometrics: December 19, 2019
Medical Received Date: September 27 , 2020

I have few questions:
1. Most of the process for my parents is complete and waiting for Passport Requests for quite some time now. Is High Commission of Canada in New Delhi started sending out the Passport Requests? I was told at VFS, Ahmedabad that they only have Biometrics happening at the moment. When do these offices go on Christmas Holidays?
2. Is CIC not processing applications for 75+ years old Parents or Grandparents at the moment?
