Hey all,
My spouse just did the biometric, and will be travelling a bit. Would anyone mind to show me the Medical Request Letter? I just want to see the required documents needed to take to do the Medical.
Also, my spouse got the Bio-metric request on Mar 5, 2019 and did it today. Still has not received the Medical request. Is it normal?
Thanks so much in advance.
And just for your curiosity, the following is copied from the instruction of the MR:

These medical instructions are being issued as your immigration application has reached the stage where medical examination results are now required. Please read these instructions carefully.

How to complete your Immigration Medical Examination
Book an appointment with a Panel Physician in your area as soon as possible. If you are unable to complete your medical examination within the 30 day timeframe provided, it is your responsibility to inform the IRCC office responsible for processing your application as soon as possible.
Once your medical examination has been completed the Panel Physician will submit medical results to IRCC for assessment. To obtain a copy of your Immigration Medical Examination please ask the panel physician at the time of your appointment.
Paying for your Immigration Medical Examination
Any costs related to the medical examination are your responsibility and are payable to the Panel Physician at the time of the examination. This payment is for the Panel Physician’s services and cannot be refunded even if your immigration application is refused or the validity period of your immigration medical examination expires.
Note: If you are eligible for coverage under the Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP), the costs related to your immigration medical examination will be covered by the IFHP. Please confirm with the Panel Physician in your area that they are registered with the IFHP.
What must I bring to my appointment?
IMPORTANT: If you have a previous or existing medical condition, bring any medical reports, test results or prescriptions that you may have with you to your appointment. This may help reduce the time it takes for your application to be processed.
