Hi,

My PGWP got approved today, it took approximately 3 months to process.
I am an inland applicant and I was submitting a newly done upfront medical exam together with my PGWP application. My medical is still valid.
I haven't physically received the permit yet so I don't know what the conditions are. But on my account, it says

Review of medical results Help - Review of medical results
  • You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes.
So no 'Medical Passed' message. Is this a normal or should i be concerned that for some reason IRCC might not have looked at my medical exam and has imposed the restrictions on my permit?

For temporary status medica, AFAIK, is needed if you have spent 6 months in few designated countries in past 1 year or so.

Just means that you already had a valid medical.

So this means that they reviewed it?

The only time I ever did another medical was 6 years ago, when i was applying from my country to enter canada.
In August this year I did the second one, and i did it because i want a job in a health-related field.
