Study Permit Approved Without Medicals
- Thread starter Georgita
- Start date
Hi, my visa/permit was approved in September without medicals, however there is a note in the letter of introduction:
'Immigration medical examination: You must have a valid (IME) (https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/medical-police/medical-exams/requirements-temporary-residents.html) , if required. Your IME must be valid on the day you arrive at the port of entry or you may be found inadmissible.'
Have any of you similar case?

First of all congratulations for the visa. 2nd if your country is in the list then simply get a medical examination and keep that e medical sheet with you when you arrive canada.
I got a medical examination and will keep the e-medical sheet with me when arriving Canada.
Yeah, I will be doing the same. If everything goes smoothly at immigration, do post an update here, it'll be helpful.
@Georgita @kdhcfhbx hey guys, i’m having the same issue. I have already received my visa and I spent more than 6 months in a row in Malaysia which means I need a medical exam but I did not get a medical request. I’m unsure of what to do now? do i do the medicals and just take the e-sheet with me? do i need to raise a webform to upload my medicals or is taking the e sheet to the airport enough? or do i not need medicals?
Heyy thanks for reaching out. I’m traveling mid July so i will update. However, i have asked a few immigration lawyers and they said if they did not request it, it’s not our fault and it will be okay. Worst case scenario they will request us to do a medical in Canada and submit to an inland office. But I cannot guarantee anything obviously. I’m only quoting what I have been told. So I’m just gonna travel and see how it goes

Will wait for your update in mid-July, The whole visa process is so frustrating and needlessly opaque, it's ridiculous. Btw, which country are you from? (I'm from India). I just plan to carry all my medical reports and show them to the border agent.
