U of Toronto 2015 Winter, passport requested

[Ben215]

Just saw a message in my online application, CIC is requesting passport from me. Does that mean visa approved?

BTW, I'm going to U of Toronto 2015 winter, ECE Meng program. UT friends lets connect here.

Medical is not necessary for me. From CIC website:

You will need a medical exam if you:

have lived temporarily for six or more consecutive months
in one or more of these countries or territories
in the one year immediately before the date you want to enter Canada. (This applies even if you are a citizen of a country that does not need a visa to enter Canada.) or
will come to Canada to work in an occupation in which public health must be protected. See below for jobs for which you need a medical exam.
apply for a Parent and Grandparent Super Visa.

None of these apply to me. If you've lived in US for one year immediately before the date you want to enter Canada, u'll be fine.
