Hi All,

Today me and my wife went for the medical examination for Express Entry. Mine was fine but in my wife's x-ray report they found out some scar. Actually my wife was diagnosed with TB while in childhood at 3 years of age. And it got cured with 6 months of medications. But the scar is still there. I am trying to find out what will happen next. We asked the doctors over there they said they will send the same report and IRCC will decide what's next.

Anyone with similar situation can help us out with this.

It's likely she will be asked to submit to further tests to rule TB out.
Sputum samples for 3 consecutive days, which will be cultured for 8-9 weeks...and then she will have to repeat the chest xray after 3 months.
As you will see from most testimonies here, this is more an additional hurdle for us to cross. Nothing to worry about.

Thanks for the reply.

I believe we can atlest submit the profile and pay processing and PR fees with the acknowledgement medical receipt which I got yesterday.

No updates. I had gotten an ADR (nomination certificate and IMM 5669) on 8 July - I responded later that day. Passed the meds on 12 July. No further updates.

Hi Guys!

I would just like to know what will happen after my treatment? My medical will be expired by the time I am done with the treatment. I have a scheduled xray on the 6th month of my treatment. If they requested for a re-medical, will I undergo xray again or will they just base my xray on the 6th month? Thank you.
