Medical Exam

« on: July 22, 2007, 07:03:48 pm »

I have barely just scratched the surface of how involved the application process is for permanent residency to Canada...

I have been looking over the information on the CIC Canada website, and it gives some directions for taking the medical exam.

If I have this right, I take the medical exam AFTER I have sent in the application package to the visa office? Do I wait for instructions from the visa office before doing the exam? Do I have to have some kind of receipt to take to the medical exam with me? How much does it cost? I will be going in Chicago, where I live now.

For those of you that have done the exam, what does it involve? Is it just like a regular physical or is it more complex???

Thanks for any help!

No, if it is a spousal application you do the medical before the application is submitted. As well you submit the police certificates as well. You make an appointment with an DMP and take a copy of the appendix D from the application package with you. Phone the DMP and ask the price, shop around.
See http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/pub/dmp-handbook.pdf page 12 and the amendments for the tests required.

PMM-

Thanks for reply...

Do you know what the medical exam involves? Is it a straight forward physical or do they conduct all sorts of tests? I am a healthy 29 year old woman so I hope it would be pretty simple.

Unfortunately, there are only two approved doctors in the Chicago area so I can't really shop around.
