Interesting. My Old medicals are from 2021. However, my AOR is April 29, 2023. So the expiration date on my medicals (according to AST) is barely 4 months from the AOR date. Is that normal? Should I contact the IRCC?

it’s only showing completed in tracker but i hope they will update it on GC Key this week.
It looks like we have a similar timeline. What's the expiration date on the AST for your Medicals? My old medicals are from 2021 so they technically expired in 2022.
It seems to be the standard amount of time these days, based on the spreadsheet. The time from AR to AOR has been reduced substantially. It takes about 3 weeks or so nowadays. The switch to fully online applications (and perhaps additional staff) is starting to have an effect, for sure. I hope they move some of the excess staff from EE applications to non-EE to make it go faster still.
I sure hope they would reduce the overall processing time as well.
Yeah, I hope so too. I see your application has been processed in about 10 months. Which isn't too bad considering the average, according to IRCC is 18 months. I presume that is getting skewed due to the backlog of applications from 2021 and early 2022. I would like to think that newer applications will get processed in a relatively short amount of time.
EE applications are getting processed in 3–4 months, even though their standard is supposed to be 6 months. They have overstaffed EE by 65%. I hope they can invest a bit in processing non-EE as well or reshuffle some staff based on the backlogs.
Thank you!!
Yeah, 6 month long ADR review, good grief! Looks like they were happy with my supervisor’s name, and my published research works they requested lol.
The speed it’s going for new applicants it’s crazy. Glad it’s all working out.
Congrats on you copr!!
Please update here when you receive yours and how long it took.
Im planning a trip home in October, thinking there is a plenty of time for a card to arrive, BUT YOU NEVER KNOW.
Congrats once again!
Ghost update is when there is an update on GC Key and you get a message saying there is an update/message waiting for you (either by email or on GC Key itself), but when you open to check, there is no real message. It is the visa officer doing something in the background or back end, but GC Key doesn't have the capability to show it on the front end.
