May I know if you guys have any idea about medical test . Do we need to submit it ? I am thinking of submitting the medical test results upfront . Has anyone of you received any response regarding that or any other update ?

Where did you filed your application from ?US?
I have filed application online, My company attorney is in Canada i am not sure where application goes.

Per my biometric correspondence letter it shows CPC Edmonton address so I assume my file is processing at Edmonton office.

I hope this clarifies.

Thank You

All applications are online, however when you apply it does ask which country you are applying from, looking at your timeline it says you completed medical, for all applicants applying from US there is no medical tests requirements, so i am guessing your aplication was filed from India, being processed at Edmonton, the most likely outcome is Application approved and PPR sent to counterfoil

Best of luck

Yes from India, I am not sure about final decision as my portal still shows reviewing eligibility. Can you clarify about ppr sent to counterfoil means?

if so then why portal is not updated with final decision or ppr request?

Thank you in advance

But the rest is same. LMIA closed WP and Essential worker.

Let me know if you hear any updates from them.
Just wanted to update you guys with my progress.
Applied - 09/10/2020
Passport request - 11/09/2020

Biometrics not required as completed for Visitors Visa in 2019.
