Hey guys,

I applied online on Sep 20th and they asked for my medical examination on December 17th. I did the examination and made sure it was forwarded to them by Dec 23rd, but still no updates from them. I'm really worried.

I'm staying in the US but I'm not a US citizen, I came here 5 months ago.

Does anyone of you know how long it takes for them to do the processing after the medical??? Can anyone help me? codedguy31, have you received any updates from them?

Hi, i haven't gotten any updates yet. I did my medicals on the 31st of Dec. I'm hoping i get an update this week. When are you supposed to resume school in canada? Mine is the 7th of January

Did you apply online or by paper?

My semester starts tomorrow! It's crazy. Here cic.gc.ca/english/study/study-how.asp it says that a medical can take more than three months to be processed. ??? Do you know anyone with a similar situation that got his/her visa on time?

Also, have you tried contacting LA? Do they answer your emails?

I tried contacting them...but they didn't reply me. I don't think the medicals should take that long. 2weeks maximum if they are no complications. Did you apply online?

Yeah I applied online. They didn't reply to my emails either.
Well, wish all the best for you man! Please keep us updated if you hear back anything from them.

Hey did you send them a case specific enquiry? They usually respond when you send them that.

I have tried that too (sent two actually before I got the request for my medicals). I guess I would send the another enquiry today.

does anyone of you has a similar case ?

It's better to apply online. You don't have to worry about your application not delivered on time. All the Best to you.!

Hi Lens,

Would you mind telling me what a case specific enquiry is exactly and how to send one?

I appreciate your help

 

[MrEnergy]

thank, Lens723, for you reply,
my main problem is that I am physically inside Canada, visitor,
so when I applied to study permit, they refused it,
I already applied online and refused,
how can I apply online this time but directing my application towards LA office ?
or I should send my application by mail to them ?
kindly advise in details, I don't wanna get refusal for the second time,
thanks

You're welcome. The case specific enquiry is a specific form you send to the consulate working on your application regarding questions about delays etc. Here is the link for the Los Angeles Consulate. https://dmp-portal.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/case-cas-eng.aspx?mission=los%20angeles

Are you a resident in the United States? if so then you can mail your application to the Los Angeles Consulate since you don't want to risk being refused for the second time. If you want to apply online you can start again by using the online questionnaire. Here is the link http://onlineservices-servicesenligne.cic.gc.ca/eapp/eapp.do;jsessionid=B993A7DB0BC09583482F43D746B7FBD5 That will be able to help you. Feel free to ask me any questions you have. All the Best.

thanks again for offering help,
NO, I am not a USA resident, I am an Egyptian, currently a visitor to Canada,
it is so difficult to fly 18 hrs to Egypt to apply, so I thought to apply at the USA, as it i the nearest country,
Regards,
