It takes around 4 weeks from what I heard, but my case is 7 weeks. I guess it's because I updated my documents and my progress was reset, just my guess

I am waiting since April 24,2020. I have got my criminality pending since October 2020. Everything else has been passed. I am tired calling ircc and sending webforms. I have sent and email to prime minister and immigration minister. I guess if all the people who are waiting can send emails respectively i think they might look into it.

My medicals expired as well and now it says ‘you dont need a medical exam’ ! Does this means its extended?

What I am seeing from other posters is that medicals are very likely to be extended if you're inland and there were no issues of concern. If you're outland or have an outland dependent, they will probably be asked to do a new medical. The extension may take some time - mine expired in Jan and I am still showing "You don't need a medical exam" so I don't know if they have been extended yet. Not sure if this status will change.

Mine was saying they are reviewing my medical results, so I think it’s not yet be extended. I had booked appointment to redo the exam in June 10. I am tired to wait for them.

Did you order your GCMS notes?
Not yet, it takes too long to get response. I phoned them 3 days ago, the agent said no one touch my file since Feb . No docs missing. Eligibility RR, BG in progress....Patience. How long ? Don't know...
