your medical is expired, have you receive medical request?
my remedical also going to expire in may 2024 file stuck in security from may 2023
I am not in Canada, so when my medical test expired, they ask me to do it again. About 400 CAD each time. I was asked to take 3 times already and the third time expired in the end of 2023

Once the CSIS check has been done, do you know how long CBSA takes to finish the security check and send file to ircc ? any idea

i see. since you are outland, it is very hard to predict the exact timeline to finish the whole steps...in regular the processing time is generally applicable for the inland applicants...

your country of residence and travelled how many countries? if you travelled too many countries may be thats the reason for delay.
