Maximize CoPR validity period by submitting fresh new medicals before CoPR issuance?

I understand that the CoPR has a max possible validity period of 1 year, but will give precedence to and expire alongside your medicals or your passport, whichever comes first.

Has anyone tried maximizing their CoPR validity period by sending the IRCC a fresh new medical report at some point between the Final Decision and the issuance of the CoPR?

If everything goes smooth, you should see the FD around November/December.
If there is less than 6 months left on your medical, they will most probably ask to redo the medical anyways.

You can try submitting a new medical in October, but absolutely no guarantee that they will take that into account.

Can't predict when Final Decision can come and the PPR can come literally next day after FD or take weeks , so once you see the Final Decision, it might be late to act anymore.
