I thought the FINAL step would be passing medical exams. Now we are waiting on something called "security checks"? I have never even seen anyone post about that. I was sure our passport requests would be soon.
Do you think they process by date? I submitted the application July 31 2024. Medical Passed Aug 7 2027. Pre Arrival Letter Feb 20 2026. Waiting for next step since then. It's been almost 2 month,
Can't say for sure. My 1 application was July 21 and it got approved in Jan 2026. The other application was July 27 and it got approved in Apr 2026. But, the biometric and medical request for both were at the same date. They just allowed 1 to expire and had to be redone.
