Hi! I’m about to enter YYZ next week. I’m on my PGWP. I will get my permit once I enter. I have all the documents I need to enter such as job offer etc. I was just wondering why does it says that I need to have a valid medical now? Did anyone experience this as well? I don’t have medical result with me since we don’t need it when applying for PGWP. Thanks!
PGWP re-entry medical

Hi! Not working in those fields that’s why i’m confused why do they have to put on website. I understand that temporary workers have valid medical exam with them since they need it to file for visa application. PGWP doesn’t need it though. Mine expired when I was still a student.
Hi! here is the link. Thank you!

So click on “do you need an exam.” Since I don’t know what country you are from, does it say you need one.
Hi, thank you! I answered yes and it says there I need it. Never had my exam for PGWP though that's why i'm very confused. i just thought I need a valid job offer, the letter, and the visa to enter. I just saw everything today. I usually refresh the website. I'm just worried because my flight is next week and I'm booked. Unfortunately no hospitals can conduct a medical now because of the pandemic.
But with the question, it says
If you’re applying to become a temporary resident of Canada, you must have a medical exam if you:
- want to come to Canada for more than 6 months and
- have lived or travelled for 6 months in certain countries or territories in the year before you come to Canada
- from what I understand, I am no longer "applying" because I have my visa with me and my application was approved last year. Just new information I got today from the website. Thank you!
