You can't upload the Medical results on your own. The physician who did the medicals will send the report directly to CIC.

Once the report was sent, you can check the status in the CIC my application page.

Hi,

I applied online from Canada and my husband is in India. But I believe the application goes to Delhi Embassy.

I applied for second time. When I applied first time I was a student in Canada and did not submitted the enough documents.
This time I have NOC B job and I am on work permit now.

So i read this thread on daily basis and I applied by my self for spouse.
The major point I have is My husband had a 6 month visitor visa which we got after the first rejection of spouse work permit. He came to Canada and went back home after a month. And may be that created a good history.

Other than this I submitted the regular documents. And as i can read it here my job letter does not have NOC code mentioned or anything.
But my visa are not approved yet.
I just received the medical request. My timeline as below:
Application Submitted: 21st October
Medical Request : 18th November
Medical Done: 23rd November

Now waiting for next step.
If you need the list of documents let me know.

Thanks.

Hi people,

My timeline is below:

Applied on : 27 Sep, 2017
Received Medical Approval on : 28 Oct, 2017
Received PPR on : 17 Nov, 2017
Submitted Passport on : 20 Nov, 2017
Received Passport on : 24 Nov, 2017

In all less than 2 months

Applications Highlights:
> Applied Online with upfront medicals
> Relationship proof: Marriage certificate with spouse's passport stating name change
> Employment letter stated NOC category and Skill Level
> Provided address proof for Canada

Word of advice:
Try to build your supporting documents very straightforward and arrange them in the right flow. So that it is easier for CIC to go through your file and make some sense out of it. Always remember, the more easy and straightforward your file is, the more easily you will get the approval.
Make sure to provide enough information on each supporting document for them to accept it.

I DID NOT USE ANY CONSULTANT OR A LAWYER !!

I am an international PhD student and we want to apply for SOWP for my husband, who is a PhD student in our home country. So, it means that he is unemployed. Is there a chance to get SOWP in these circumstances?

Hi,

I applied online on September 6, I got my study permit on 1 week. from my account I applied for my husband's open work permit..but so far no updates. We don't need any medical examination. I checked the status online that says We are reviewing your application since last Monday.
A friend called on my behalf the call center and they did no start to review the eligibility yet(!!)

Where can I find the approx. processing time?

Thank you!
