    I'm wondering if it is possible to bring the passport to the Ottawa office and stamp the PR visa on site. I heard from a friend that people did this before in the buffalo office.

    That's true... My ecas still shows "we have received your application blah blah blah" even after receiving the medical request. Anyway, no news is good news
