Hi all, got a furtherance medical letter yesterday. So, my concern is regarding AIP and SA . Do we need to wait for both the approval until medical gets cleared . ?? We still waiting for OWP as well.

Hi,

I don't think I understand your question.

Are you wondering if your SA & AIP will be delayed now that you received a medical furtherance letter? If yes, no one really knows how long after submitting the new tests, IRCC will move ahead with your application.
For some people in other months, IRCC went ahead with SA & AIP before clearing the medical.

Hello,

Did you submit an inland application and now your spouse & dependent have left Canada? They are usually supposed to stay in the country until processing is complete - did you send your application to the Mississauga (inland) or Sydney (outland & "choosing to have it processed as an outland application while staying in Canada") office?

The processing times are 12 months for each - however with pandemic closures and backlogs it is taking longer than 12 months for a lot of people.

Did you receive a temporary (starts with X) or permanent (starts with F) application number on April 12? With the permanent one, you can link your application to your online account. With the temp one you can call the service centre and get updates from an agent.

Next steps are usually biometrics and medical but it changes depending on inland vs outland. Here are some helpful links:

Hope this helps!

If you're in Canada, you don't need to do anything with it. You can only avail these services if you are outside Canada or a new landed immigrant. Sometimes, agents send these letters even to inland applicants.
