Visa validity
We're are at this stage when we have to send our passports for visa stamps.
From what I learned here, visas are valid 1 year from the medicals. Our medicals expire in December 2005 and we plan to move to Canada in November. Has it happened to anyone to get visas whose validity exprires months before the expiration of the medicals (in our case months before December)? Thanks.

Re: Visa validity
There are some reasons that result in shorter than 12 months from medicals validity of PR visa. Main 2 reasons are - expiration of passport(s) coming sooner and validity of medical decision shorter than 12 months.
