I am living in Canada alberta , on work permit, my PR application is in progress and facing this TB test issues, please explain me your husnabds case for TB in detail

He actually got the results and came out negative. If you test positive for skin TB they will ask for additional medical but usually second one will show that you don’t have TB. You are blessed because here if you get positive you are able to go for treatment.
