As informed earlier I received Remedical which I undergone on October 16.Then I received a phone call from my Panel Physician to go for 3 day Sputum test and one Gen XPert MTB/REF test which I performed on October 29,30 and 31.Meantime I received a phone call from CIC,NewDelhi to ask my Panel Physician to upload my medical results if I have undergone Medical Examination.I called my Panel Physician to upload the results which she said that she will upload after completing my 3 day sputum tests. As you know in my last medical in February 17 also I undergone such tests and passed it. This time also all tests are negative. I emailed CIC in a logical way why repetation of these tests? Why they cannot compare results of this year with last year?Let us see what happens?Other wise one XRay on January 16 is required.GOD bless us all.
Hi may I have questions about your situation??
Did you have to go sputum test initially exam?? If Yes how about the 2nd exam?? Did you go to sputum again for 2nd exam?? I mean CIC will ask we do sputum every time when we do exam tests even we did it before?? Or they just compare x-ray at the 2nd exam with x-ray at the initial exam??

3 Things that people are asking here over and over without seeing previous replies (has been answered before):

1. Q15 Employment History of Financial Evaluation Form (IMM5768)
We made a big fuss about it last year. In fact, I called CIC few times to clarify. Clearly, the heading says "Income for last 3 taxation years" which means 2012-2014; but the word "Present" in first column confuses you. So, I broke it down to 3 rows, each representing a year which corresponds to my income shown in my NOA line 150. Keep the same format (3 rows) even if you worked with same employer. For 2016 applicants, this should look like this:
For same employer
From To Employer Address Phone Gross Income Family Size

2014-01-01 Present Company A 123 123 2014 NOA Line 150 5
2013-01-01 2013-12-31 Company A 123 123 2013 NOA Line 150 5
2012-01-01 2012-12-31 Company A 123 123 2012 NOA Line 150 5

For multiple employers
From To Employer Address Phone Gross Income Family Size

2014-01-01 Present Company A 123 123 2014 NOA Line 150 5
2013-07-01 2013-12-31 Company A 123 123 2013 T4 (Company A) 5
2013-01-01 2013-06-30 Company B 456 456 2013 T4 (Company B) 5
2012-01-01 2012-12-31 Company B 456 456 2012 NOA Line 150 5
* Make sure both T4's add up to the total income stated for your 2013 NOA

2. Q15 Family Size of Financial Evaluation Form (IMM5768)
The full family meaning Sponsor's family + Parents + Dep. For above example, it's 5 (husband+wife+1 kid+father+mother). Even if you were single in 2012, got married in 2013 and had a kid in 2014; you shouldn't bother writing different numbers in family size.

3. What courier service should you use?
Well, I answered it in my original post. No one can absolutely guarantee one specific courier company that you can reply on. CanadaPost has proved to be the most inefficient last year. Local express service in GTA did well in 2015. But I assume more people this year will be interested in using them. Out of UPS, Purolator and Fedex, the latter seems better to me. But this subject can still be discussed among you.
Hi Rossie, for multiple employers, what if the family size changes lets say my wife who was working till Oct-12-2018 for a employer and our family size was 6 at the time and in the next row on Oct -13-2018 she went on EI maternity benefits and same day my son was born and family size becomes 7. Isn't it a problem if we have different family size in the same year, as we have to mention in different rows. As per your example,
For multiple employers
From To Employer Address Phone Gross Income Family Size

2014-01-01 Present Company A 123 123 2014 NOA Line 150 6
2013-07-01 2013-12-31 EI MATERNITY 123 123 2013 T4 (Company A) 6
2013-01-01 2013-06-30 Company B 456 456 2013 T4 (Company B) 5
2012-01-01 2012-12-31 Company B 456 456 2012 NOA Line 150 5

For myself, On the hand I was working for the same employer and for 2018 year my family size stays the same 7.

Will not that be a problem that me and my spouse has different family size in that year.

Thanks

Wanted to mention that after 5.5 years today, my parents received their PPR letter today.
It has been a long wait. The background check was never ending because of my parent's travel history.
I am posting this for anyone who may be reading this message, that please do not loose hope.
Many times over the last few years, we lost hope but reading such messages in the forum in other groups was super helpful to help build morale.

Looking forward to them becoming immigrants very soon.

Medical changed to passed today in mycic. background check status says "Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check".
Was your eligibility passed during this background change or it happened afterwards?

Hi all:

I have a question. Has anybody passed medicals with a heart coronary stent that was placed a few years ago? Does it make trouble?

Hi there. If you're still on a forum, could you please update me on this?

My husband also got a stent in heart, he is taking both metoprolol and irbesartan.

I will depend on the reason for the stent, whether he has longterm cardiac issues that may require further treatment and what type of treatment, etc. A stent alone shouldn’t lead to refusal.
