Hi,Hi,
My mom had some scars in the chest x-rays when she did her medical for super visa in 2017. So she had to do sputum culture and it was all negative, and she was placed on medical surveillence(needs to be done when she enters Canada). Last year when she was here on her visit, I got her to the TB clinic with that medical surveillance provided by immigration and they again did chest x-rays and sputum culture and it was all negative, the scars remained the same.
Now, i am thinking when she goes for medicals again, will they again repeat sputum culture or if she brings her reports from the Canadian TB clinic, with that they will not do any further tests.
Its the same thing that has happened to my mom as well. When she did her medical last year, she had to undergo same sputum test and all that stuff. Medical officers send the reports to IRCC, then IRCC contacts local health agency with the case, then she had been under medical surveillance under some test reports showing negative results have been submitted to local health agency. When local health agency is satisfied , they close the file and inform the IRCC
