So my husband and I think we're finally about ready to submit our papers but aren't sure about the medical part of it. Do we seek a certified doctor out ourselves and then submit with the form I have (Appendix C is all it's called) with everything else? Other posts on this forum make it sound like you mail everything in but the exam results, and get papers later to see a doc. I'm not sure so I wanted to check on what I need to do here!
Hello Ryissa,
The Medical aspect can be confusing but all you have to do is make an appointment with a Panel Physician. You can choose any doctor you choose. It is best to go to the one closest to you. Use this link to find the best one for you.
http://www.cic.gc.ca/pp-md/pp-list.aspx.
After you have gone to the Medical Appointment, they will give you a form. It is an e-medical Information Sheet with a barcode in the top right hand corner. You then submit this form as proof that you have completed the Medical. The barcode at the top of the page will help CIC to link your medical with your application once it is received by CIC. Our Medical has been linked with our application so I know that this works.
By the way, we have chosen to do the Outland Application.
On the document checklist, it says that proof of medical is required before it is submitted. By submitting the medical with your application it will reduce your wait time which is something everyone wants.
I have also emailed the doctor I choose and asked about Appendix C and they informed me that I did not need that so I did NOT fill it out. I suggest that once you make your appointment, ask the doctor you choose what is needed to bring to the appointment with you.
I hope this helps! All the best with your application!
