Correct me if I'm wrong, but you can't submit the application without uploading the Medical Report???

I think they changed, last year when I applied I didn't submit the medical.

I need to extend my BOWP again this year and the medical report box is there, the only way to make it disappear is to chose "Less than 6 months" option for the Length of stay questionnaires.

Unless there's different way to do it and I would like to know too, because I really don't want to submit my MR.

Yes, I'm in Canada.
If I click "No", isn't it considered lying, because I did do medical when I applied for CEC last year???

I applied for BOWP in Jan as well and my application for PR (CEC) is in progress still. I did the medicals in September so when asked if I did a medical exam I said yes and then uploaded the receipts that I got from the Doctor. It is not really required if you are within Canada but if you already got your meds done for PR then just upload the receipt, it should be fine.

Well, I applied for CEC in Nov 2013, got medical request in June 2014 and did my medical in July 2014, let's just say the report came back not so good, that's why my application has been on hold ever since.
Now, my current BOWP will be expired on April 30, I need to apply for a new one, and I don't want to submit my MR.
