I have asked this question in my regular parents forum - http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/parents-sponsership-joine-here-t91654.11055.html
However, looking for further advice

My parents did their medicals today and the form they used was IMM 1017 B ( long story short - New Delhi sent the request to wrong email which I found through GCMS ) and to avoid further delay, I got it done here in Canada today as they are visiting me, DMP said since I don't have IME # handy, this is the form used

My question is, is this form OK? for parents which I have been reading here - please advice since there is still a week till they sent it to Ottawa
====================================


In support of the release of the new GCMS 4.0, all previous versions of the IMM 1017 form as well as the Appendix C will no longer be used. Instead, two newly-revised IMM 1017 forms have been created:

IMM 1017: Medical Report: Client Biodata and Summary – not available on the CIC website as it will be GCMS-generated along with medical instructions
IMM 1017B: Upfront Medical Report: Client Biodata and Summary – not available on the CIC website as panel physicians will have these forms in their office.

NOTE: With the implementation of the new IMM 1017B, the Appendix C will no longer be required.

Read it, discussing it in parents sponsorship thread but doesnt help my query

My Issue
New Delhi sent meds and pp request to incorrect email thus waiting for that to be corrected, passed 60 days due date for this due to delay/incorrect email
The meds form are India specific, dont have IME#
They ask to email them for OUTSIDE INDIA specific forms
This whole thing is delayed anyways so waiting for those forms is another delay and by others experience, they dont reply qickly

Parents visiting me in Canada
Meanwhile, went to the DMP since we know out UCI and FLE #
DMP said where is IME#
Explained we don't have it, as New delhi forms don't have IME#
Doc filled 1017B Upfront Medical Forms with FILE and UCI on it

I researched and found that 1017B is only for spouses, so if doc sends it will I be in trouble as Passport will be submitted to delhi by that time too and if they say 1017B not accepted, then we are screwed as passports will be India, and parents are here
