Medical Appt. Letter...

[StephyD 0]

Hey,

I have my medical appointment on Monday March 22nd, in Toronto. I have to bring 3 passport photos, passport, cash, and the appointment letter. Which paper from the packet 3 is the appointment letter? The first page or the checklist? I would like to send in the checklist before I go to the medical to speed up the interview process...so is it alright to show the medical people copies? Or must I have the originals? Confused!

I know this should be in the Canada K-1 visa portal, however i suck with using this site, and couldnt figure out how to post it there.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks, Steph

Moving to Regional.

There should be medical forms, and medical appointment letter with a list of doctors.

Hey,

Same here, medical in Toronto but on March 24th.

The letter is the one that has the Case #. I'm going to bring the first page that says "the office is pleased ..." and the checklist with the cash # handwritten.

$275 dollars... Still can't believe it...

I got the packet. Just not sure which papers to bring, and wondered what others have done. Copies or originals? Sending checklist back now or do i have to bring that to the interview?

Thanks

I can't believe the price either! I read that it was much less not so long ago. Also, I'm from Windsor, and it wasn't too long ago that medicals were done here as well. I guess i'm a little late for the good stuff.lol

Yes and don't forget, if you want the results FEDEXed to you it's $50... that went up from $20 as well.... those robbers.

I read we can pick up a few days later?

I live in Toronto, so $50 is a bit overpriced for a Toronto - Toronto mail

Oh yeah you can pick it up! It's just convenient for those that don't live in TO to be able to get it fedexed, when it used to be cheaper that is.

My appointment is in Toronto on April 1.

Everyone keeps talking about forms in their Packet 3...but I never got a letter in the mail. I received an email notice.

Do I just bring that in? It has my case number on it, but i'm not seeing any specific 'medical forms'.

Will I be receiving a paper version of my letter of appointment? I was under the impression that the Embassy was going 'Green' and had eradicated the paper mail out.

I just joined this forum today . . . Just mailed off my I-129f last week.

$275 for a medical exam? I thought medicine was free in Canada!

Is that how much they charge for the medical exam you need for the K1 VISA or later on for the permanent residence card?

It is, but Canada has nothing to do with US Immigration medicals. Why would Canada pay for a medical that the US government is requesting, it has nothing to do with Canadian healthcare.

I don't know, I didn't think of it that way.

Yeah, it sucks. This whole process is really expensive. Anyway, welcome to VJ!! You'll find lots of helpful info here along your way.

I just brought the first page of my checklist with my MTL# on it. All they need is your MTL# so if you have an email with that, I think that should be fine.

Yep, $275 for the medical is pretty outrageous, but so is the whole process, so what can we do!! I'm not complaining through, I was one of the last people to get it for $185.

Ya, 50 bucks for FEDEX seems pricey as well. I'm sticking around Toronto to pick up the results instead. I'm lucky my brother lives there...he's my hotel everytime I go!

I guess I'll bring the originals and once they see them, then i'll mail them to Montreal. The only things in the packet 3 regarding the medical was the blurb on the checklist, the page with the list of approved panel physicians and the list of vaccinations needed. No actual 'medical forms'

Can't wait to get the interview date. At least i'll see Montreal in good weather, eventually.
