It depends what your visa office is. However the UCI is typically issued early on in the process (not at the end).

This is your AOR (aknowlgment of receipt)
This just CIC informing you they have your application. If you log into the application status checker (ECAS)
It should tell you what point your at in the application.
Judging by this your still waiting for sponsor approval (SA), plus stage 2 approval also.
It very much depends which VO they assign to you for stage 2. You will find this out once you get SA.

Once again, pretty much impossible to comment unless you're willing to tell us what your visa office is.

visa office in manila
The current processing time is 17 months for Manila. Now it says on that on CIC's website, we know 80% of applications are approved before that so you will prob be best to check out the spreadsheet for the Manila visa office to get an idea on timelines. I would say your prob looking at another 9-12 months before you will be approved.

Your CoPR will be valid for one year from the date of your medical exam. You would need to enter Canada before the expiry date to land as a Permanent Resident.

This should give you plenty of time to take care of things before coming to Canada.

Manila very often likes to request passports at the beginning of the 2nd stage and hold on to them.

Being its August that your meds will expire you still have some time...A lot of things can be done in this time period by CEM one just never knows their agenda. As for the operation I really don't think its needed to contact them, however a more senior member may be able to chime in with an appropriate answer.
