Does upfront medical really speed things up or it's as random as the whole application process?
I've asked my representative lawyers ( kpmg ) and they told me it makes no difference at all and it's wiser to wait for the medical check request.

My AOR was March 10 and PAL back in August, no updates since then.
I was exempt for Biometrics since we did them back in February for Working Permit renewal before COVID struck.
Inland application with 2 dependants.
I had to update my file with new dependent ( Baby born in Canada, this summer ) in August/September, so maybe that has slowed down things for me after PAL

Upfront medical speeds up the application process, don't listen to your lawyer, just go for it , I did upfront medical too and I'm PR now, my aor was Feb 12

If you have ITA, the upfront medical is good. If you do not have ITA, there is no benefit.

Does that also speeds up the application for OUTLAND applicant? please advise.
Upfront medical means submit Medical with PR application... Its standard procedure, almost everyone does that... IT does speed up but not that much...

Isn't ITA just for Express Entry applications, this s a forum for Provincial nominee program paper-based
I just answered the way a question is put.
