I have the exact same message (and blank message box). Contacted my LVO (Sao Paulo regarding this and this is their reply: "Dear sir / madam, Kindly note that our department is updating our database and we will contact our head office to inform them of the issue. At the present time our...

same here. sent Police certificates back in August. Still waiting for Medical

Got PCC request back in August (returned the reports a week later). still no sign of Medical...

Also have an entry like this with a random date. After that random date I got SA, file forwarded to Brazil and got Police clearance request so did not think was a problem but checked with the LVO. They said there was nothing pending from my end. said to disregard the message and just wait

this was a hypothetical scenario. I don't plan to apply to any other sponsorship. but what I meant in that scenario was that since it is free to signup for the draw (as far as I know there is no fee to be part of the draw), I might as well give it a try, even if today I don't have the passports...

In this case you are counting on people's common sense to make it fair? I doubt a single person would refrain from applying thinking of someone else's chances...

Ok, in terms of fairness both families have equal (however lower) chances. In terms of volume of applications, last year I applied for my in-laws; this year I was going to apply for my parents but their passports were not yet issued because of a backlog. Now instead of giving up and waiting one...

"Fair chance" is relative in my opinion. Before you had the option to pay more for an express service and, although some luck was still required you could at least increase your chances. The excuse that the old process was giving those who can afford more chances is BS. If you pass the minimum...

Re: important question - please help I do not see a reassessment as unfair. You have to understand that CIC cannot predict the future. The best they can do is to use historical data, assuming you will maintain your income level, to determine your eligibility. You are signing an undertaking...

Yes, it is linked. Medical shows as "Not needed at this time". So at least it looks like the ball is still on their court. Let's just keep waiting. Hopefully will get it as Xmas gift.

I am trying to be patient considering the process is moving at a way faster pace than anticipated but I got to admit that, after 3 months, I am getting very annoyed about the wait. We sent PCC this time in August and nothing has happened since... No medicals yet.

Just be patient :D When we sent the application they were estimating 6 YEARS (!!!!) and we might get away with months instead... give them the 2 weeks break (and don't get me wrong, I am as anxious as you are ;))

I Shared my theory a while ago: "I agree that it does not make sense for 2016 applicants to move ahead of 14/15 apps. My theory though is that Trudeau, having strongly criticized the previous administration's processing times, could be trying to prove his point, that processing times can be way...

Yes, Sponsorship approved and File transfered to LVO. LVO requested PCC on Aug 2nd (Docs sent to LVO on 8th) but no sign of Medical (mail, email or MyCIC)

I had the application linked a couple days ago (PCC was through email). mycic reads: Review of eligibility Review in Progress Review of medical results Not needed at this time so I guess i did not miss any communication, they are just doing it separately...

I see most people receiving Police certificate and Medical requests together from LVO. The Sao Paulo LVO seems to do it differently. They requested Police certificate only on August 2nd (emailed back attaching the certificates on Aug 8th) and now I am waiting for medical. I know that I should...

I agree that it does not make sense for 2016 applicants to move ahead of 14/15 apps. My theory though is that Trudeau, having strongly criticized the previous administration's processing times, could be trying to prove his point, that processing times can be way lower than current averages...

Question for those who received Medical/Police check: once on the PR processing stage is the communication still through the sponsor? Or going forward they with reach out to my folks directly? Thanks!

Great news! Got a letter from CIC on the mail today stating the approval of sponsorship and confirming the file was sent to Sao Paulo, Brazil for PR. One step closer! Good look to all of you still waiting! It's coming!

that's exactly the frustrating part: it changed to "IN PROCESS" but I did not hear about Sponsor approval nor got word about visa office... If sent to the local visa office will likely be Sao Paulo (Brazil), but I do not know. Hopefully the communication is coming soon.
