medical redo ? timing ?

[Alex121]

Hello everyone, well I got a call from the vo who is in charge of our case, they called me to notify me if my husband can leave to canada by wednesday, but we cant as I and our baby are here with him so the lady said we will send medical forms so your husband can redo his medicals, now my question is after he does his medicals how much longer does he have to wait to recieve his passport with visa, I would like to know with how much time am I dealing with, so we can start packing and start selling are stuff, as well I would like to know if I should send a prepaid enevelope back to them in the envolope with passport and receipt, thank you in advance, and good luck for all those still waiting

It can take anywhere from 8-12 weeks after a medical re-do for them to issue a visa, from what I have read of other's experiences. It depends on how efficient the DMP and regional medical centre are in sending off and uploading the medical results respectively. Then once the visa officer gets the new results, assuming he or she is on the ball and requests them soon after you send in the form to show you have done the new medical, they have to turn around the passport with the visa so it can be sent back to you.

As for sending the prepaid envelope, if the IO you spoke with mentioned this as being an acceptable way to get it returned, then there should be no problems with you doing so.

You're welcome, and thank you.

Look at it this way, however much time it is, you're on the straightaway headed for the finish line now (to use a race metaphor). This gives you enough time to get organised and do a proper leave-taking, plus put things in motion for your arrival in Canada. So, while you're waiting for that letter, start making your lists of what goes, what stays, who needs to know that you're leaving, how many people you're inviting over for the parties (plural, one for leaving and one for arriving!) and all that good stuff.

You've got beginnings to plan, hop to it!
