Hi Everyone,

I have received ITA since last month and preparing my online PR application. In documents checklist, it is required to upload the proof of medicals (e-medical) for all applicants. But my wife is pregnant. We went to the designated medical center (here in Saudi Arabia) and did the medicals for me only as for my wife they said that they would not do any kind of medicals untill the delivery and also did not give me any document / report to upload.

Now can anyone kindly guide me, in this scenario what to do and what document to upload as the "proof of medicals". Can it be a report from the regular ob/gyne dr we are seeing or it should be from the specified medical center?

* I have gone through different posts in the forum, but couldn't find the exact answer for my this question, therefore I am putting up new post.

Thanks in advance,

Hey Man,

Hope you are successfully settled in Canada. I'm in a similar issue as you were some time back - my wife is pregnant and I wanted to know how did you manage the medical and X-Rays for your wife when she was pregnant?

Is there any special process for pregnant women for medical check required for Express Entry?

Let me know.

It is up to you guys whether she undergoes the x-ray while pregnant.

If you choose to wait, the Panel Physician will do all of the other tests and give your wife a deferral for the x-ray. She will then complete the x-ray after giving birth.

Hi..

To submit your medical, you will have to wait till the medicals are completed (blood test etc and x-rays are done). and Its very important and safe for the baby to not take any x-rays during pregnancy. So, better to do medicals for you now and submit. And do the medicals for your wife and new born child together, after birth, as you also need to do medicals for your newborn. This is what I did.

Medicals for newborn! :eek:

This is something which I haven't heard before. But regardless, let's now wait for ITA and then will proceed further.

Thanks for your info :)
