Hope this helps. This was posted earlier in this forum by another member.

1. The medical is to check illness/disease which can either
(a) Danger to public health i.e. contagious diseases
(b) Danger to public Safety
(c) Might reasonably be expected to cause an excessive deman on health or social services such as cancer, dialyses, kidney transplant etc etc

2. Therefore, no need to be bothered much abt the medical, If God forbid someone has such symptoms nothing much can be done. If an applicant's initial results are not satisfactory, further tests are conducted to rule out issues mentioned in point 1 (above). Following is list of different test conducted in medical and tips to avoid the expenses and tension of additional/confirmatory tests

3. Urinalyses: Dipstick test to check presence of following. The thresholds are +1 for any of these. In case of breach of threshold, Microscopic analysis will be conducted with following thresholds
Blood: Threshold – RBC above 10 RBC/HPF
Protein: Threshold – greater than 0.30 mg/L
Glucose: Threshold: Presence

Blood and protein can be present in healthy person based on activities/food over last 24 hrs. So, to avoid repeat test DO NOT have high protein diet, exercise, s3xual activity (48 hrs), Alcohol (5-7 days), Soft drinks, Caffeinated drinks (Tea, Coffee - also for B.P), raw tomatoes, raw leafy vegetables, or dieting (i.e. very less food). Drink at least 3 - 4 liters of water in 4 hours before the test. Otherwise, you risk incurring the expenses of Microscopic test.

If threshold of microscopic test are also breached then Serum Creatinine will be conducted. The results of this tests will be submitted and analysed by doctors in Canadian medical center, who may accept, rejected, or advise further tests for the candidate.

4. Blood test: for Syphillis and HIV. Both are s3xually transmitted diseases. Syphillis can be treated with medicine and in case of detection, doctor will prescribe the medicine. All details of this treatment will be shared with CIC/VO.

5. X-Ray: Mainly for checking early signs of T.B. Nothing much can be done about it but avoid/reduce smoking 5-7 days prior to the test to minimize chances of chest infection.

6. Physical examination: Blood pressure is main concern as it may signify hypertension if systolic is above 140 and diastolic is above 90. Avoid high cholesterol and other food which are known to result in high blood pressure. JUST MAKE SURE TO REMAIN CALM, and TAKE DEEP BREATHS, and your B.P will be within normal limits. Avoid getting mad at delays or cost of medical test . Chewing gum also helps in maintaining normal B.P.

The diseases checked in Physical examination include signs for hepatitis, Cancer, Cardiac diseases, Cognitive Impairment in Adults, Developmental delay in children, Psychiatric conditions (only those which can cause DANGER TO PUBLIC SAFETY and DEMAND ON SOCIAL/MEDICAL SERVICEs, if something remains under control through regular medication and chances of further deterioration are low, it won't be an issue).

Note: If initial tests are satisfactory, usually reports are not shared with CIC/VO but if confirmation tests are conducted or treatment is prescribed then reports of initial and all subsequent tests is shared with CIC/VO. If the diseases is curable for good through medicine, the candidate is not rejected on medical grounds but the candidate is put on hold till complete recovery. The treatment is prescribed and repeated medical test is conducted after prescribed duration.

Last but not least, DO NOT HIDE/MISREPRESENT ANY MEDICAL INFORMATION FROM THE DOCTOR WHEN ASKED ABOUT IT. IN CASE OF ANY ISSUE, THE PERSON WILL BE REQUIRED TO TAKE MEDICINE/CONSULT DOCTOR in CANADA and IF AT THAT TIME IT IS DISCOVERED THAT CANDIDATE MISREPRESENTED IN MEDICAL, IT WILL RESULT IN IMMEDIATE TERMINATION OF PR and DEPORTATION. YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOU HAVE INVESTED IN CANADA IN TERMS OF TIME AND MONEY. The above precautions works only for healthy person to avoid COSTS / TENSION OF REPEAT tests. These CAN NOT HIDE PRESENCE OF ACTUAL/CRITICAL DISEASE.

Thank you, that's quite informative. But I was looking for a link tothe official guide...the one you gave is including personal opinions/suggestions..

 

[Nedana]

Today is 46 days since I send inquiry mail to CIO about my additional docs. I send them on 29th september (new fee payment form) and ask them to replace Fee Payment Form in my application which is recived on 2nd September with new one. No answer yet. :'(

 

[socc3rguy]

Missisagua and Brampton are the good choices also...

Scarborough is bit costlier then rest of the options.

Etobicoke or Scarborough.
These area's fall under GTA with good transit system and you can find a lot of PG Accommodation / Sharing Rentals.

Try using www.kijiji.ca

Brother SBA,

Yes it's an AOR from SGVO.

 

[spicysank]

For anything in between Etobicoke & Scarborough its the same transit (TTC) and you pay $3.00 one way.
For Brampton, Mississauga, North York, Vaughan there are individual separate transit systems and you have to pay additional $3.25 average plus TTC for Toronto.

Missisagua and Brampton are the good choices also...

Scarborough is bit costlier then rest of the options.

Excuse me...how did you get your uci
number...from previous app or by calling cic?

Thanks in advance

Yes we were Permanent residents from 2001 to 2009
Uci is on our expired pr cards

 

[javoo]

URGENT !! PLEASE SOMEBODY WHO HAS ANY CLUE ABOUT THIS

I've already applied for Australian Police check and the certificate is on its way. However if we check the website it mentions :

Which Australian police clearances are acceptable?

Applicants must provide a Standard Disclosure – name check. Certificates can be obtained through the Australian Federal Police.

IMPORTANT AND MANDATORY: Additional requirements apply for those who lived in or currently live in the States of Queensland and/or Victoria after their 18th birthday:

Residents of Queensland must submit a Traffic History which goes back to their 18th birthday or the day on which their first Australian driver’s licence was issued.
Residents of Victoria must submit a Licence History Search which goes back to their 18th birthday or the day on which their first Australian driver’s licence was issued.

Now I did not possess any license whilst my stay in Aus so i called up vic roads who told me provide me with my details (name ph no etc) and a brief email regarding the purpose of this certificate. I mailed them and also got an automail regarding the receipt of the email. However there is no reply as yet.

Does anyone face a similar situation and has the certificate/ letter from Vic roads stating they have had no license issued in Victoria. If so please guide me through.

 

[GrantM]

Yes we were Permanent residents from 2001 to 2009
Uci is on our expired pr cards

So you became PRs, moved to Canada for 8 years, moved away and lost PR status and now applying again?

May I ask why you left there in 2009?

 

[NT_MAPLE]

Hi,

I have a question - I have recently got L1 visa stamped on my passport. However, I am not travelling to US anytime soon, not at least the whole PR process is over. When I receive MR or PPR do I still need to inform the local visa office about my L1 visa stamping, even though I am not travelling to US?
