I don't get it, I thought if we got re-med's then that meant they've done all the checks...

Hey Laila.
were you asked for additional docs (supplementary forms)? If so, when were you asked for it?
did they explicitly ask for a REpcc or did u voluntarily send it?

From what I have read on this forum from senior members - depends on the visa officer - for husbands there are more detailed checks as compared to wives - but some visa officers will do the check before re-med but many will do the checks after medical results have been recieved (criminality/security will be showing not started on GCMS notes) - which is why it can take up to so many months to recieve PPR depending on the travel history and background.. same with people who recieve re-med and PPR even though CHC will already have the passport they do take however many months to give it back stamped depending on when the background checks are completed
