Yes, it is compulsory. For me it was just an x-ray.Thanks for answering my questions. it compulsory????? Or the test is only xray Or more then it
Hey Beth!You just tell them about it. They will give you paper with instructions on it. You have to contact the public health health autority within 30 days. They will take care of the rest. Don’t worry. They will probably ask for another x ray.
There will be no issue with your immigration status. You just have to complete your medical surveillance. Everything will go smoothly for you.Or is there any issue or effect my student visa Or PR?
The length depends on your health result. Don't worries you don't have to go every month. It's just one x-ray. And then follow up every year. For me, everything was covered under my university insurance.
your medical evaluation is done only once after landing. you can visit any medical clinic and usually they charge you and issue a x-ray request. the same clinic send the file directly to the ircc . you can ask for a copy if you want. if you are not planning to leave immediately than you have to wait 3 months to get your health card post which you can get this free. once they receive the update in their file, than no worries unless they request another review after some time which is very unlikely.Hey Beth!
I just received my student visa along with the medical surveillance form. I was just curious as to how long the surveillance might take? Do I have to go for an appointment every month? Also, how much would the entire procedure cost?
Cheers
