Do I need to submit medical exams for the kids with my application?

Hello,

I submitted the sponsorship application to sponsor my husband at the beginning of January (2013). We are both in Canada. I am a Canadian citizen, and he has a visitor visa. He has 2 kids from his previous marriage, to whom the mother has full custody of. My question is, do we need to include the medical exams for the kids, who are overseas with the original application? we were told we could wait until we would hear from immigration. The kids are 5 and 10 and even though we are not intending to sponsor them at the moment, we understand we needed to include them in the application in case we wanted to sponsor them in the future.

Does anyone know if this is accurate?

Thank you!

I'm not an expert but as far as I know (read in this forum and in CIC site), you shuold include them with the medicals.
If you don't do it, and at some point your spouse would want to sponsore them he might not be able to.
