Hi guys,
My question in regarding the medical exam. I am the primary applicant and my wife is the "accompanying spouse". I am living in USA currently.
1. I am going to India for a business trip and will get my medical done there. Booked an appointment for 10-Dec. Reason: It's much cheaper to get the medical exam done from India than it is in US (~$70 vs $450)
2. Since my wife wont be travelling with me, I'm planning to get her exam from US only.
Question 1 : Can I and my wife get medical exams done separately?
Q2: When I called the US doctor to take the appointment for my wife, they are asking for IME number. When I tell them I don't have an IME number and its an upfront medical exam they ask me the category - worker, visitor or student. She qualifies into none of these. What should I tell them? I'm totally lost..
PS: I am an express entry candidate in FSW category
Thanks
Anupam
