Medical Exam Fees....

[nyssa]

Can you make a trip up to Canada for the appointment by chance??

I just scheduled mine today, and it's $180 CAN. I'm taking a trip up there this July to get married and file the applications, so I booked the appointment that same week. Hopefully it all goes as planned!

Best of luck to you!

I'm glad I'm not the only one having to go through all of this.... I know it's not fun, but will be worth the aggravation in the end.

I was not able to get my HMO to cover any part of the exam, even though I was due for a yearly exam... The DMP doesn't bill the HMO...

That part is out of the way and the results should have already made their way to Mississagua by now :)
We received the last bit of paperwork to complete our application yesterday, so the whole package will be sent out today! I'll be sure to post when we actually get an answer.

Seems all we can do is shop around for the best price as far as the exam goes... It's nice to put all of the paperwork behind us though... If all goes well I'm hoping to make the big move before the holidays... But in the end, having to go through this long distance relationship has only made us that much stronger. This whole process started nearly 18 months ago and we are now just sending out the paper work and all of the proof.

I never would have guessed that this whole process would take so long...

I wish you all the best!

The suggested price in Canada is only $150 CAD.

Wow we just had my husband's medical done in Edmonton Alberta and we had to pay $335 and the DMP didn't give us a paper to include w/ our application. Also they told us to get more passport photos than were necessary so we spent an extra $40 there.

Hi, I've had my medical done in Edmonton too, I paid $338 and I was told to bring only 3 photos. DMP did not give me any paper either but what I understood is if you are applying inland, you do not include IMM 1017 with your applications as document checklist said "Proof of medical examination" which did not mention about IMM 1017.  I checked outland document checklist and it said "Proof of medical examination for...(original copy 2 of form IMM 1017 signed by the examining doctor)".
But I started wondering... am I right? (I am going to apply inland, and I will just include all of receipts from medical exam with my applications as a proof of medical.)

Just to give you an idea, I called the closest Dr. to me (Atlanta, GA), and they charge $390 for the full exam and that price includes them mailing it to CIC for you.

I just sent in our receipts too, the office said we did not need the IMM 1017 but people on the forum said we needed it, that was why I questioned it. I'm glad there are other people in the same situation. Oh and they told us to bring 6 photos, I have no idea why.

Hello,
we were told in the medical office that all the fees for medical exam are refundable. We just need to send the payment receipt to the office responsible for the immigration. Is that really true?
thank you
