In the section "review of medical results", you will see this date updated to a recent date with the same message "You passed the medical exam", once your spouse's are passed.
Hello,
I got married on March 5th, 2021 and raised a webform on March 9 informing them regarding this change. Today they sent me this email:
Good day,
Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.
We are pleased to confirm reception of the document(s).
We have forwarded them to the responsible office for their consideration.
Furthermore, we verified the information you provided and can confirm that the application is still in process.
When can I expect to receive the list of required documents for my husband?
Thanks

You do not wait until they send the package. If you already gathered all required documents, you can proactively send them to IRCC via webform. Since it wastes of time waiting for them to send us, take up to 30 days to respond 1 request.
I thought about this, but I'm not sure what documents they will require. ( I know for the forms, medicals, criminality but they might require more).
Has anyone sent the documents prior to the request of IRCC?
Thanks
I sent my request a month ago but they have not replied. I submitted all documents in advance through the web form. Here is the list that they normally send to you:

To do so, we invite you to send your add-on request through the IRCC webform available on our website. You can attach the following forms and documents in the field reserved to that effect:
