Gurus please help!

I got a medical request form today. However, I did an upfront test. How should I respond, please? And again, could someone confirm what stage I'm in? My status changed to eligibility stage today, but, my medical & biometrics have not been updated. Kindly see below

Exactly what happened to me, I sent them a case specific inquiry and an email.I attached the upfront medical receipt and my medical was changed to passed the following day with passport request..congratulations in advance �

Congratulations!
Please can you further explain what you mean by document itemization and page numbering? Thanks!

I second to the itemization and propper numbering. Especially those who are submitting many documents. It makes it easier for the consular. I actually used the adobe linking tool which directs the officer to respective pages with just a click.

Hi guys for some reasons been having issues posting. I had to create a new moniker.

First Application (online route)-> 31st may 2017
I applied from the USA and only submitted relevant documents no SOP. Just the following
1. Family information form
2. Study permit application form
3. Passport bio data page (just this page no visa pages or stamped pages)

Refused on June 16th based on
1. Immigration status in country of residence
2. Purpose of visit

I read up about the immigration status issue but I believed I knew the reason why I was denied.I made a very silly mistake especially with my length of stay in my country of residence on my study permit application form.
I was in the USA as an undergraduate student at that time. I therefore put USA as my current country of residence.
So I was asked how long I would be in the USA and I put from August 2013 to may 31st 2017 and I submitted my application on may 31st.
I also chose the USA as the country I am applying from.
So I believe the VISA officer probably thought I was over staying in the USA.
Also I was switching from biomedical engineering to electrical engineering and I didn't state reason for the switch and how both programs are related. Hence, the purpose of visit concern from visa officer. I decided to address this in my SOP.
What the VISA officer didn't know about me is I got an extension of my student immigration status even after graduation because I had an incomplete class I needed to finish.
However, I decided to wait and finish the class and just go apply from Ghana since that's where I am from anyways.
I finished the class on 26th June and left the USA on 27th June.

Second Application (online route)-> July 4th 2017
1.I added an SOP stating that I was previously denied based on purpose of visit and immigration status in country of residence.
In the SOP I address both concerns in great details and provided supporting documents.
2. Letter from my professor justifying that I did have an incomplete grade and was finishing
it up.
3. Letter from international student stating I have maintained my student status since I started school.
4. My form DS 2019 (USA student immigration document)
5. My transcript
6. Letter of completion of all degree requirements. It also stated when my degree would be conferred.
7. Passport with all visa pages and stamps
8. Proof of finances
9. Conditional letter of acceptance from McGill University
10. Proof that I met the conditions of acceptance
11. Upfront medical form
12. CAQ certificate

On July 17th(13days after application), my application was updated and I didn't get any email. The review of eligibility changed to we are reviewing your eligibility
On July 18th(2 weeks after my application) I got a medical request.
I sent a case inquiry form stating I did an upfront medical.
On July 19th (15 days after application) medical changed to passed and I got a passport request at the same time.
What I think helped was the detailed SOP addresing the VISA officers concerns I provided. I also added documents to support what I had written on my SOP.
I prayed fervently.
I would like to say a big thank you to everyone on this thread.
To those who reached out to me, Be aware that I got your emails and I would reply soonest.
Please if you any more questions feel free to ask.
Thank you
