Instructions for Medical Examination - A
In order to determine if you meet the medical admissibility criteria in Canada’s Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA), it is necessary for you and your eligible family members to undergo medical examinations.
IMPORTANT – Please Read First:
1) These instructions apply to applicants who will be completing their medical examination in India, Nepal or Bhutan. If you (or any of your family members) intend to complete your examination in any other country, please inform our office and we will provide alternate instructions and forms. To expedite a response, please contact us by email (see www.india.gc.ca for contact details).
2) You do not require any other forms or instructions to present yourself for the medical examination. See below for instructions on what to bring to the examination.
3) If you are receiving these instructions and attachments via e-mail, note that you will not receive any separate instructions by regular mail.
4) Medical examinations are undertaken at your own risk and expense. Completion of the medical examinations does not guarantee the eventual issuance of a visa. Should you subsequently be refused a visa, there will be no refund of the fees or costs incurred.
5) Immigration medical results are valid for 12 months from the date of the examination.
Who should be examined:
Temporary Resident Applications (Visitors, Temporary Workers, Students): only the applicant must be examined.
Permanent Resident Applications: All persons listed as immediate family members on your principal application form (IMM 0008) must be examined, whether or not they are accompanying you to Canada.
Where to go:
The medical examinations must be performed by a physician on the current list of Designated Medical Practitioners (DMPs). The list of DMP’s is available online on the Citizenship and Immigration Canada website, at http://www.cic.gc.ca/dmp-md/medical.aspx .
The DMPs conduct examinations by appointment only. Please make an appointment with the DMP whose office is located close to your area of residence. If you or any eligible dependent are outside your normal area of residence for an extended period of time, it may be possible for you to be examined by a DMP in another area. Please be sure to keep your appointment as you may be charged for the examination should you fail to appear.
What you should bring:
Bring the following to your examination (and to any follow-up testing):
The attached letter (or email, as applicable) listing your application number
Original, valid individual passports for each person being examined (photocopies are not acceptable).
Five (5) passport-sized photos for each person being examined
Eye glasses (if applicable), list of prescription drugs taken or any relevant medical report(s) from previous conditions which the doctor may need to discuss. Documented evidence of Tuberculosis (TB) treatment is required if you have been treated for TB in the past.
Note: If you do not bring all required items to your appointment, the DMP may not examine you and you might need to make a new appointment, thus incurring delay.

What is included in the medical examination?
Complete medical examination - for persons of all ages
A Chest X-ray and report - for all persons 11 years of age and over (and others if there are concerns of
TB in the family)
Urinalysis including microscopic examination - for persons 5 years of age and over
Syphilis serology - for persons 15 years of age and over
HIV testing for 15 years of age and over, children who have received blood or blood products or who have a known HIV positive mother or all potential adoptees. If the first test is positive, a second confirmatory test must be done at the expense of the applicant.
Note: When you arrange your appointment, please also check what arrangements are to be made for your chest X-rays and laboratory tests. It is possible that after the completion of your medical examination and submission of reports, further tests or reports may be requested. You will be advised accordingly.
It is recommended that routine immunizations for all children and adults be initiated or completed before departure for Canada (tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis, mumps, measles, rubella, hepatitis A and B and meningococcal), and where available, immunization records should be brought to Canada. A number of Canadian provinces require presentation of such records for school registration.
After the examination
The DMP will forward your medical reports to this office directly. You are not to handle the medical
results yourself.
However the DMP will also provide you with a photocopy of the completed medical examination forms for each applicant. You should submit these to our office, along with a photocopy of the passport which was presented at the time of examination for each applicant.
Note: Although DMPs may discuss your medical concerns with you, the DMP is not able to indicate whether you have passed a medical examination, nor whether a visa will be issued. Visa issuance is the decision of the Visa Officer. The DMPs will provide the results of your medical examination to a Canadian Medical Officer who provides an opinion of your medical condition under the IRPA to the Visa Officer examining your application. It is the DMPs responsibility to forward all medical results directly to the Canadian High Commission once ALL test results are received. Certain medical conditions may require more investigation and the DMPs may have to refer you for additional tests.
What is the cost of the examination?
The fees applicable to medical examinations (to be paid to the Designated Medical Practitioner) are available on our website (www.india.gc.ca) under the Visa and Immigration Fee schedules section:
