Medical Survelliance on COPR

[jyoti99]

Hi !
There is a medical surveillance code 02 on my COPR. But at the time of landing, I wasn't asked for follow up with the doctor.
All my medicals for my PR were done in Canada only. I just crossed the border and got my COPR.
Would this cause an issue in future ?
PLease help folks !

Did you find out what tests were involved?

I've received a Medical Surveillance Form (Code S 2.02 - Inactive Tuberculosis). I will be visiting Canada for a short landing of 8 days to complete my entry.

Once I land, I will call the Public Health Authorities and speak to a nurse about my condition. On the same day, I am required to fax form IMM0535 to the nurse.

I understand the next steps are:
(a) Public Health Department sends me a "Dear Doctor" letter with instructions for the physician
(b) I have to take an appointment with a physician to complete any tests required (generally X-Ray and sputum).

Any idea how long (a) and (b) above will take? As I said I plan to be there for only 8 days so I'm quite concerned. Do I need to visit Canada regularly to continue the surveillance?
