[vanessajoy]

If the treatment starts your application will be on hold because medical is necessary to be passed for every visa. If you never had a history of TB it might be latent. For the latent or inactive TB you need to take treatment in Canada but you will be granted a visa.
You need to relax you are overthinking.

I can understand but this is how it works. You have to wait for next xray. There will be delay due to this additional xray and sputum

im just bothered and worried, there so many things will hapen in 3months.

Yes it can be the case.
Don't worry if you never had contracted it, that could be latent. I know 3 months is a long time but this is the normal IRCC timeline. Don't worry this time will also pass.

That is for sputum. You medical panel will send the notification of sputum collection once you do that to IRCC. Same will happen when you do xray after 3 months.
