Sure, but I think they will still run their own tests if they see the scar.

Thanks for your response deebruv may I ask if what's your application status now? Did your medical results turned out fine? Did your Ecas shows they have your result since you had it December?
I'm just thinking positive here but I know the spot they've seen on the xray of my dependant bothers me and I know my application will be delayed too. hoping and praying that everything's will be alright. Godbless guys
Hi rosan. same case here,im following your post, still confused though the xray test result is normal, my hubby was diagnosed active ptb last 2013 and it was treated for 6 months. The pulmonoogist supported it with medixal certificate. The case is my little boy was requested to have ppd test(skin test) since he s exposed to person with PTB. This is the request of the clinic that we need to comply so theedical report will be forwarded to cic... i'm bothered too. Hope the result is negative and hoping no more medical furtherance in that case. Hope all is well. Keep on4 praying.

On the first x-ray they found a small pulmonary nodule on the lungs thats why they advice her to undergo for 3 days sputum test, then they send message for her to come on the 3rd month of first medical.She doesnt have any history of tb its just they saw a shadow on her x-ray but at the same spot right lungs she had a surgery 4 years ago with cist on her breast.. With her anual physical or xray they been seeing that shadow and accdg to them its the scar from her surgery.

Second Xray is usually performed 3 months after the first one. Since her first medical was on the 25th, the text is an invitation for second xray after 3 months....the Sputum test sgould be ready before then.. so sh should call as advised. I hope I was able to answer your question?

My other question is if she will pass the 2nd x-ray and the sputum test found negative, what will be the next stage ? Is it possible for PPR? Coz were hoping and praying that they will be here in Winnipeg by June..
In God's will..

From what I read on this trend, most people with similar issue and negative result for sputum and clear xray or similar xray content after comparing the 1st and 2nd xray results got their passport request exactly a month or 6 weeks after the uploading of second medical result. Another factor that may affect when she will get ppr provided the sputum test is negative and doctors confirm shes got no active nor inactive tb is the visa office. Some visa offices respond faster than others.

So..by my calculation and prediction, I hope she gets the passport request in May and other activities will follow suit.
