Pulmonary Tuberculosis(Active/Inactive)-History,Sputum Tests,6 mos medication...

[DanBhanu69]

Hi everyone,
I hv done medical on16 july 2018 in max for work permit and after that my sputum test done and result I recived after 3 months . All x-rays are same(because of some marks on lungs and it will remain same) and test is also negative. Bcz of some reason, I could,t submitted visa application that time. But now I am going to submitting visa application in month Aug 2019. In that case should I need to do medical test again and go through sputumtest for 3 months? Please reply.

You'd most likely have to repeat the medicals, as the validity is for a year only.
Perhaps the hospital might not put you through the sputum tests if a repeated xray is identical to the previous two.
But its also possible.
Good luck.

Dont worry .. Everything will be fine soon. Hope for the best. You will get your passport request soon.

Can you pls share your timeline after updoading your sputum test results and x-ray within how many days your medical passed.

I hear sometimes speaking to an agent at the CIC call center can help to shake things up. Either that or a request for GCMS notes.
Perhaps you could try that?

A friend said after medicals passed it automatically goes to 0 processing time or probably takes 5-6 weeks so I will just chill till july15 .. am sure I will get it before that time .. just like a friend here got hers on this forum after 5 weeks

My experience is rather different: I have found the PP folks more willing to share info. They told me of the negative smear results (few weeks after sputum samples collected). I did have to call, after 8 weeks, but they were quick to confirm that (again negative) results had been communicated to IRCC. Days after, I got an email from IRCC requested another x-ray (which I did today).
Have you tried calling or going to see your own PP?

As for when PPR could be ready after 2nd x-ray/medical passed, its really difficult to tell. It depends on the stage where your file is: I read of someone who got PPR notice the very day of MEP. For some its 5 weeks later.
