Medical Examination – Visitor Extension – Now Leaving Canada

[Suman]

I filed extension of visitor status for my mother, it was approved yesterday. Today, I got letter for medical examination by a Designated Medical Practitioner (DMP). My mom changed her mind and will be leaving Canada in two weeks. Is medical examination mandatory or she can ignore it?

Your mother should see a Designated Medical Professional (DMP) as soon as possible to perform the medical examination, in the given specified time. If she thinks, she has already got her status extended and there is no need to appear for medical examination, she is ignoring the requirements of IRCC. In future, she will face refusals on the basis of non-compliance with the instructions of an officer who extended her status now.
