Medical

[091212]

My husband got his medical done in July but we haven't applied for Permanent Residence yet. How do we find out the results of the medical or if it was processed?

Are you applying Inland or Outland? For inland processing normally medical results are sent directly to the processing centre by the doctor and you send proof that you took the medical exam (reciept etc) when you apply for PR.

Normally medical results are valid for one year. The processing centre would normally contact you if there were any issues. You only need to worry about the results if you think your husband has any issues, I know they tested me for TB and syphillis, which I definitely don't have.

We are applying for outland but we did the medical here in Canada. I'm not concerned about the results, I guess I'm just concerned about how and when CIC will get the results. Basically I'm wondering if they will get them before we even send in our application as the medical was done almost 3 months ago and we won't be applying for PR until November.

You do not find the results. When he did his medical, your husband signed an agreement stating among others that he understands that the results of his exam are the property of the Canadian government. If the panel physicians would have needed any more tests, they would have asked for it in the two weeks following the exam. After that, the results are sent to one of the CIC's medical centers, where they wait until they are requested by the visa officers.

Bare in mind that they are valid for 1 year. After that, they may extend the validity, ask him to do the whole medical again or ask him to redo only part of the tests.
