I have question for Iraqis who are sponsoring their wives,can I redo my medical examination in Iraq? are there in Iraq Designated Medical Practitioner can make medical examination and send our medical ex result to CIC? or I should travel to Syria or Jordan to redo my medical examination ?
when I search for Designated Medical Practitioner in Iraq through CIC website I saw this phone number for doctor,I tried to call but its closed,any one have Idea?
this the link http://www.cic.gc.ca/dmp-md/medicalinfo.aspx?CountryID=2006&CountryName=Iraq


Nenan, I have said that before maybe u didnt notice....my wife first medical exam was done in Iraq baghdad...they had a very good service and did everything smoothly..just call the number of the doctor and take appointment...we didnt went to syria or amman to do our first medical..it was all done in baghdad....so go ahead and do it there its more better and easy...the medical center of the doctor is known in baghdad.

thanks a lot Arezuo this is very helpful and detail information.

If I am not mistaken, Customs declaration card is a simple (one-pager) card, that they hand out in flight (when landing in Canada) and everyone (canadians/permanent resident/vistors included) is required to fill this in, if I am not mistaken this form should be available online to download, there you usually declare how much and what type of goods you are brining in, but I wasn't curious to know, if a new resident is also required to fill this in.

yes that's right abt the card and yes everyone has to fill it in....the difference is that they will not tax the new residents on their own belongings (of course she should not bring too much alcohol, tabacco, etc - there r some guides abt it othetwise she could get taxed for those or leave them at the customs; but that's not even considered belonging ;)) make sure to fill in the list of goods and follow up goods carefully

No, I basically listened to Sohrab and sent it in. The doctor was making us hesitant about doing it before the embassy asks for it because apparently they send some other form. However, I told my wife to go ahead and do it :)
see listening to sohrab pays off :D im so happy for you bro
