Medical Non accompanying Spouse

[localhost8100]

Hey guys,

Canadavisa.com has been very helpful for giving me knowledge about the process.

I ahd a question. I recently got OINP nomination. I am waiting for my invitation in next draw. I am gathering all the documents, I understand that me being the primary applicant, I can go for medical before ITA or after ITA. I even called one of the doctors in US, they confirmed that I only need passport for the medicals.

My concern is my spouse, can she get medical before ITA? or after ITA or should I wait until I get instructions from IRCC about her medicals after the application.

I had read somewhere that we need to wait until IRCC sends us request for non accompanying spouse's medical request.

Thanks everyone for the help.

You both need to complete upfront medical

You can’t get an upfront medical exam if you’re applying to sponsor your spouse, partner or child. Wait for our instructions before going for your medical exam.

I just saw this. I guess upfront doesn't apply when you are sponsoring your wife. She is non accompanying so. Thats good. Thanks for the info.

Express Entry is NOT family sponsorship
Your application will be refused if your spouse does not complete upfront medical

Agree with above.

You are not sponsoring her, so that is completely irrelevant to your situation. She must have a medical before you apply. If you submit the app without her medical, your app will be rejected.

Awesome guys. Thanks for clearing that up. I will wait for my wife's PCC and ask her to go to medical immediately after it.
