Medicals will expire soon, do I need to get a new one? Pls help

[Reese88]

I got ITA and gathering my documents. I have a medical performed by CIC panel physician that will expire on March next year. Do I need to get a new upfront medical? I'm sending my documents on January.
A friend told me that Copr expiry date is based on the validity of Medicals. So technically, I need to get one. I'm not sure. Please help.

You will need to do another medicals as your medical has to be valid for at least 6 months when you submit you application. Check the link below for more details.
