nope, it says "Review of eligibility We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements" since the file transferred to Colombo. but somehow they requested medical.. Btw why does ur application take so long? even if it falls to the old category, one of our cousin got his visa in 8 months 5 years ago.
No. Medical not depend on any checking steps. Normally will get once transferd to colombo.

Ya same question I have too. Im a new category applicant. My application received on aug 1st 2017. It's transferd to colombo & got medical on nov. Medical done & passed on dec 2017. But still eligibility going on... I don't know wt kind of process this? Honestly we didn't do any fraud in application or anywhere. Honestly Colombo process is really stupid & very stressful for us.

Some people applied for visitor visa and got granted. But the chances are pretty low. You have to convince the immigration that u will return and dont intend to stay. According to the people who got visas they applied for short period stay like 1 month, have shown ties at home country such as job and properties and have given valid reason for travel. Its better to state why the one residing in canada is not able to visit u and y u have to visit him instead. Hope for the best and congratulations.

Ya I can understand. I hv good enough experience. No more to loose Ha ha ... Do not apply for visit visa. U will get ur visa before end of aug. Wait & see my words. Bcz ur process is going smoothly.
