Hi all,
Please I have an inquiry about medical, I just got an ITA for PR, I already did a medical for my work permit, do I still need to re-do it for PR application or this one should be Ok?

Thanks

How old is your medical certificate? If it is less than 6 months, it should be fine. I submitted my application on March 3 with medical certificate dated on October 13, 2016, which obtained for my work permit. My medical is passed last month. Go ahead with your medicals if it is less than 6 months old.

Thank you for the reply!

I had my medical in March 2016, so it's 13 months old. I know it is valid for 12 months, but my question is that could I still re puse my same medical done for WP for the purpose of PR, which you said yes, correct? Do you have input on the duration part?

You have to re take the medical, yours has expired.
Thanks for reply!

So no chance to use it at all? I don't know where I read that, but doesn't CIC sometimes consider it if it was free and expired within 6 months as being still valid,is that wrong?

No. You need another exam.

Validity

Your medical exam results are valid for 12 months only. If you do not come to Canada as a permanent resident within that time, you may need to have another exam.

Expired means expired. You have to get a new one.

Guys...

I just applied for my e-APR few days ago.

My e-APR document check list required the Medical exam. So I uploaded/submitted.
Now in my CIC account, my Medical status in my e-APR is as below:

Review of medical results --> You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes.

What does that mean? am I good~

@Delpiero Thanks.

Can you please also let me know about BOWP ....

The BOWP application form IMM5710E has this question as below;

I am applying for one of the following:
(1) A work permit with same employer
(2) An initial work permit or a work permit with a new employer
(3) Restoration of your status as Worker
(4) Temporary Resident Permit

I can select (1) or (2) but In order to select (3) or (4), one of either (1) or (2) must be selected.

Since my current PGWP is expiring in couple of weeks,

which option should I select (1) or (2) or else ?

Hi Seniors,
I have a question about Medical exam after getting ITA.
I am single and applied as principal/only candidate for Express Entry. My question is: Do my parents (in India) also have to get their medical exam done? They will not immigrate. May be in future they can visit as tourists.
CIS's definition of family that I found on their site is "An applicant’s closest relatives, in the context of an application to CIC. It is defined as a spouse or common-law partner, dependent children, and their dependent children"
This doesn't mention anything about applicant's parents.

Please help!

No parents are not considered "family" as per the definition.
