did you ever get the emails I sent?
Yeah, I did. Between the explosions at work, and having to clean up before the wife gets home, I haven't had a chance to look just yet. I can answer by tomorrow morning.

It was my son and I for his holidays with me, while my wife was away. So, his toys (and mine) exploded all over our house (I built a bathroom in our basement)... plus the laundry gnomes stopped collecting the laundry, so, apparently I have to do that too -- and the assigned yard work she left.

I only have two sleeps left! OMG! Good thing I booked friday off!

Is there such a thing? I have not heard of a medical for visitors.

Edit: the wife's mother was granted a multiple entry, 10 year visitor visa a year ago. No medical.
Yes there is medical for certain countries and haiti is one of them unfortunately so she needs to get it done

Personally, I have never heard of it. So this is totally news to me.

Despite rampant HIV problems in Russia, we didn't ever see a demand for this. The local panel physician should be aware of how to handle this. If not, just google the form I suppose.

Though, I just checked CIC's website, and it is not required as part of the application: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/visa.asp?countrySelect=HT#applications

Hmm very interesting. Thats not what it said inside the application process. Its asking for the medical saying it is required and the forms on this link and the one on the actual app looks different. I may have to look into this.

Actually the forms to apply online and on paper are different. But they are asking for medical in her online account. That i dont understand. Hmm

Asking for it in her online account means the form is there. If not, she needs to call.

I have a couple comments. Do you want them here or in reply to your email?

Edit: They are pretty simple. You will see what I am saying (there is nothing personal, so I can mention here):

Personal History (#8):
- Change "Present" to 2017-09 (or 2017-08 if you are submitting the form before the 31st).
- There is a gap: 2013-08 to 2013-09.

Addresses (#12):
- Where did you live from 2017-06 ? (probably want to change that to 2017-0{8,9} as above).

I was told for mine to only update until the application date, nothing beyond. So my application was from December 2016, I wouldn't update information on January 2017? or did I do that wrong? I'm going by what the letter requested.

Let them ask you to update it. From my view, your form should be accurate as of the date you signed it. So, if you signed it in 2017-09, then it should be valid for 2017-09.

guys,
How long does it usually take for an MP to get back to you, I sent ours an e-mail yesterday morning.
Email is low priority for them. Phone calls or office visits are high priority.
