IRCC asking for medical again

[amalan_m]

I submitted my documents for non-EE(OINP) in December 2022. I applied for my PGWP in August 2021. I submitted the same medical for the PR application since there is an exemption if we have completed medical in the past 5 years. This morning, I received a message asking me to submit a medical. Has anybody come across the same scenario? How should I approach this?

PR Medicals are valid only for one year. If your test result is past 12 months, you are subject to be asked for a new medical.

But there is an exemption which I can see on this website for in-Canada applicants : https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...l-exams/requirements-permanent-residents.html

Did you meet all the conditions?
You may be exempt from completing another IME if you meet all of these conditions:

• You applied, or are applying, for either permanent residence or temporary residence.
• You already live in Canada.
• You completed your previous IME in the last 5 years.
• Your previous IME indicated a low risk or no risk to public health or public safety.
