No medical exam request for spousal sponsorship?

[Jerenny]

Hey guys. So my spouse (Canada, 24F) and I (US, 26M) finally got around to submitting our Outland Spousal Sponsorship application near the end of April. The delivery date was May 3rd and as of June 11th, we finally received an email, for her stating that they received an email, and for me a request of biometrics.

Unfortunately the soonest appointment to submit biometrics is on July 6th, however, wasn't there also supposed to be a medical exam request as well? I haven't received any further emails besides the biometrics request, but I just linked my application to my IRCC account yesterday and the results below seem confusing. Why does it say that I don't need a medical exam or biometrics, especially when it has requested biometrics?

Ignore the medical line, standard always-wrong clock. You'll get the medical request in due course.

It's not weird that it says "we don't need fingerprints" and this website says US citizens don't need to give biometrics?

It's weird but it is always that way. Give the biometrics.

If you read below on that site it says pr applicants must give biometrics. It's poorly presented but it's there.

US citizens do need a medical exam. I'm a US citizen and had one. Pretty sure that people get pre arrival before the medical request pretty frequently
