Were you able to enter Canada with expired medicals or were you asked to redo your medicals? I am in a slightly similar situation at this moment, and hence was looking for some clarification on this topic.
I received a request from IRCC to submit my passport for one time single entry visa and for CoPR. I took my medical exam on 14th Jan 2019. Due to some reason I will not be able to send my passport to IRCC till 28th December 2019. I have already conveyed this to IRCC guys, and they have extended my original deadline of 18th December 2019 to 18th February 2020 (extension of 60 days) to mail them the passports. My question is what if they return my passport, and CoPR after 14th Jan 2020 (when my medicals would expire). Will they ask me to do another medical or simply extend the validity of existent medical by say 1 month?
No, I was not required to do medicals again. Surprisingly, I got a CoPR and one-time entry visa with a validity of ~10 months. I entered Canada to do initial formalities and returned back to USA the same day. Hope this helps.

In general
1- your application will never be approved unless you pass medicals and confirmed no harm to public or excess burden on health system. Since you were approved then you are all set already.
2- your medicals validity is one year check below https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...sing/validity-period-medical-certificate.html
3- you will not be be allowed to travel if medicals are expired, in order to control this your Visa shall expire in parallel. For example you did medical on 01 March your visa should be valid till 1 March( or a day prior)following year. Regardless of issuance date.

I believe it should be treated separately, meaning your passport should proceed normally providing you did not reach expiry date yet. And if your medicals are considered expired they will contact you through your account. They either automatically extend for another year or request medicals.
Otherwise they will return your passport with no change in it and request new medical or extend existing medicals through CiC account.
If i understand you well i expect you receive your passport and CoPr valid for the whole next year.

I have been following these forums for a while and I know you guys are very helpful. However, I couldn’t find an answer to this:
I have received today the “Ready for Visa” e-mail but I have noticed that our medicals (my wife’s and mine) are expired. We visited the doctors on 28/2/2017 and 5/3/2017. As I understand, the medicals determine the CoPR visa expiry date - should be 28/2/2018 and 5/3/2018 in my case.
I was wondering whether we should redo the medicals or should we just send our passports to the visa center as per the instructions? My only fear is that I saw stories of people getting their visas that showed expiry dates in the past.
I received PPR request on my email but unfortunately not able to submit my passport and now its been 5 months when i saw that email i emailed ircc again and my application is in process , 21 march 2023 my medical expires and i come to now on 29 march 2023 i email them to send me new ppr request or ask me to redo the medical.. is there any thing to worry about that
