Should definitely be sponsor side, however things are not perfect when it comes to updates made by ircc. I noticed in ECAS that they added the processing start date as line 2(earlier it was medical request at line 2). So I`m assuming the DM status corresponds to SA. This is a little confusing as few people have already got their SA email in Feb and whether DM could mean the same thing for them.
Yes right confusing but because a few December applicant started getting DM on PA side as well .

Dec 10 application,
still waiting for file transfer.

Does anyone know why it takes longer for some files to transfer? Because everything was done by the end of February, and since then we have been waiting for a transfer.

I'm Dec 19th and still waiting for medicals to pass and file to transfer. I think it depends on which VO they are getting sent to. Mine should be Mexico and they seem to be waiting to send them. Where is yours headed?

My husband flew to Kuala Lumpur to do his medical today since Singapore only has one doctor doing it right now. It was a very smooth process over there.

For anyone searching the forums for this information in the future, we highly recommend Life Care Diagnostics in KL. Didn't need an appointment...just did a walk-in and they were very clued up on everything. All info is on their website.

Us too. Waiting waiting. Could be the destination VO is severely inundated or backlogged... OR could be a Bring Forward Date thing? (Our Visa Office is apparently in Mexico City) I see the trend for Mexico VO is that some aren't transferred for up to 5 months after initial receipt of application.

I am impatient. Our application is still sitting in Sydney. Why not just mail it?! I went to the MPs office today. Every day it sits there is puzzling to me.
The last 3 weeks were 0 visible progress after medicals passed; They won't mail off the application... I don't understand it. How hard is it to send it over to the VO? What is going on with Mexico VO o_O

Do they send the biometrics/medical request to GCKey? Where do they send the file transfer email to?
