Upfront medical exam

[larissavb]

Hello,
I have a problem, hope someone can help.
I received the ITA and I want to take an upfront medical exam, but when I tried to make an appointment with the registered doctor they said I must have an UCI number to take the medical exam.
I don't know if I have an UCI number. I looked in all correspondences I got from CIC, but it's not there. I have a visitor visa a took last year, so I don't know if it means I have an UCI number. I read somewhere in the web that the UCI is printed in the right down corner of my visa. Is it accurate? I did find an 8 digit number there.

Thank you! ;D

That's the UCI. But you shouldn't need a UCI to take the upfront medical exam - the clinic can work with your EE reference number as well.

Well, I tried giving my EE reference number but they said they could only make an appointed with the UCI.
That's weird..
But since you said the number in my visa is the UCI, I can give it to them. Hope it works.

Thanks a lot for the answer! ;D
