I dont know where you live but am living in Vancouver. Few offices are excepting people now but the problem I have is x-ray. I could see the doctor and did blood test but all the xray places are closed. ( I called them couple of times already but they said they cant do anything due to coronavirus.

My question is can i just submit the paper the doctor gave to me and attach the explanation why i couldnt get x-ray and also i will get it as soon as they open?

My family is India, I tried contacting Max Healthcare in Mohali. But they mentioned that they will require a letter from Canadian Embassy for upfront Medical. Please suggest. I understand India is under strict locked down currently. Appreciate any insight anyone could offer here.

Thanks, I have been to book an appointment for 06-May. I appreciate your guidance.

My immigration consultant from canadavisa told me that medical is mandatory for all the family members. I will send her an email again.

Just wanted to confirm, is upfront medicals not required for family? I have got a booking for whole family next week and I am an CEC too.
I hope there is no problem to do upfront medicals for family. Please guide.
