I know I am suppose to contact these Panel Physicians but when I call to book a date with them, they tell me I need some kind of a document from the Embassy.

I read online that all you need is a copy of the passport, and 8 pictures of myself.

Where is this sheet I am suppose to bring with me? And do I need a letter from the Embassy to get a date with a Physician?

Thank you in Advance guys.

No you need not to carry any document other than the passport size photographs ( six nos) and original passport along with the photocopies of front and last pages of PP. and appendix D for each person included in application.

Thank you but where do I get this Appendix D at?

So passport front of my passport as in the cover of the passport? black and white or color? Last page as in the last page + the cover of the back correct?

Thank you so much!

Hi all

I thought Appendix C is the one we must take to the doctor. This Appendix C is attached in the country specific Form West Europe[IMM 3901]
Has this been changed.
I will appreciate your input in this

Thanks

With new rule changes last November, Appendix C is no longer required to bring.

Many doctors or their secretaries who are giving you info, may not be familiar with new rules yet. So am not surprised is lots of confusion.

See here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/bulletins/2012/ob471.asp

With the release of the new GCMS 4.0, it should be noted that all previous versions of the IMM 1017 form as well as the Appendix C will no longer to be used. With this release, there will be two newly-revised IMM 1017 forms:
IMM 1017: Medical Report: Client Biodata and Summary (not available on our website as it will be GCMS-generated along with medical instructions)
IMM 1017B: Upfront Medical Report: Client Biodata and Summary (not available on our website as panel physicians will have these forms in their office. With the implementation of the new IMM 1017B, Appendix C will no longer be required)

Okay so just passport and photos nothing else? If you are being sponsored by husband/wife correct?

I just booked today too, and I was told to bring 4 passport photos and my passport. After the exam they'll send the results to the CIC and give me a copy of IMM 1017 to attach to my application

...New system and procedures for medical Examinations are now in place for some time but staff with some Panel Physicians may still be unaware of the complete and changed requirements.
