Hi. Sorry you had to go through this

Well you have no other option than to follow the request. Are you sure the 3rd request is not some duplicate request from the 2nd time? If not, please do not delay and submit your tests. You are coming negative, what’s the harm?

If they had to outright reject, they would have. They generally ask some candidates to undergo treatment and apply for next intake, luckily they didn’t tell you this even.

So, hang in there and follow the medical instructions. All the best!

Not an expert on the scar topic but if you haven't seen this before, this is the official guide of IRCC to Panel Physicians on how to treat the severity of ailments including TB, so just putting it here if it helps:

1.At first on 2 April 2021 IRCC demands to Rule out TB.
2.Then on June 24 2021 IRCC demands to Give full chest xray and xray report under Ircc policy.But I already gave Xray still they want 3RD xray.Lets see what will happen

My folks got treated in the States for some other issue. To rule out TB, they also checked thrice. Those countries take TB really seriously.

3rd time’s definitely a charm!!! All the best! You will go to Canada!

Hi, just wanted to know if you received your VISA? Or if you had to go through more test. How much time did it take? My case is similar.
