Hi, after 7 weeks trying to get the visa to my daughter I received an email saying she needs medical exams to get the visa, even she is going to stay only 6 months and 3 days...
I run immediatly to get it at the following day and the medical exams is already in Ottawa consulate, but the time they said here is 15 days to send back to São Paulo/Brazil Consulate and then we need to wait for the consulate people here :-[
We are really worried since our flights are to 06/30! Does anyone know any way to get in contact with this sector in Ottawa to beg them to look into my daughter IME (12193454) results and send the answer back?

Does anyone have a similar situation? How much time Ottawa really took to respond back to your local Consulate about MEDs?

Please help!

Hi MMonaco,

Could you share your timeline?

My partner and I are also waiting to hear back from our medical exams, and from what we heard, Ottawa has 30 days to send the results to the regional consulate. Did you apply online or through VFS?
