Hi,

So my spouse was non-accompanying when I landed in Canada this past February, but we had to get her and my son's medical done with mine before I landed. Will that medical for her and my son be valid if I submit my sponsor application by May 2020? I've read that the medical stays valid for a year. We gave our medicals in November 2019.

You may need to repeat eventually if it expires but that is up to the discretion of the case officer especially if it a month or two.

Yes, their medicals are still valid.
