Does upfront medical help in faster processing.?
We cannot know the exact processing, but during the lockdown, visa medicals and bimoetric enrollment were suspended for few months. Due to this, students who applied for September intake were in waiting. Work permit applications submitted after July might have experienced delays as ircc was processing student permits on priority to make sure students for September intake dont suffer. However, now it is assumed that work permit applications will be processed faster

Does a non-upfront exam makes you not eligibile for GSS
GSS clock starts after biometric and it will on for 2 weeks the moment it reaches 2 weeks and requirements are not met its put along with Non GSS schedule and hence upfront for GSS necessary ,
Its a different story now due to covid we are seeing GSS applications to ppr timeline is 4 weeks though ...

Not exact link, but while going through similar forums, I suppose it might be the case. But we never know how they are exactly processing the applications.

MY STATUS
Review of eligibility:
Your application is in progress ,we will send you a message when we start reviewing your eligibility.

Upfront medical : medical passed on 21 September.

some people say passing the medicals will most likely result in approval .. is that true? ..also what stage is passing the medicals? Please let me know if they have stages ?

also do they usually refuse without a medical Update or their are instances where application is refused after passing medicals ..

Thank you all
