Immunizations before interview?

[Moyo 0]

We don't have my immunization records for me. My interview will be sometime in January I am assuming. I work ALOT and am finally realizing I will have a medical and no immunizations. What should I do?

You will pay extra at the medical for the shots and they cost an arm and a leg at the immigration medical.

You can go to your personal doctor and get most of them for free or get a titre test done to find out what ones you need and don't need and bring that to the immigration medical.

If you are going to Dr. Seiden's in Toronto.. go to their website and you can print out the vaccination requirements... it's minimal if you are an adult. Take it to your doctor or a walkin and you will have to get a vaccination and probably a flu shot if it's the season for it, and the titres blood test that Inky mentioned. After you get the results of the titres, you get a print-out from the doctor, and something showing proof of your vaccination and flu shot... either a short letter or a printout ... and take it to the medical with you. At the medical they were satisfied easily by the printout from the doctor that the shots were up to date.

If you don't care about the money part, they will do it at the medical, and I don't know what they do about measles mumps rubella and also varicella which is what the titres would show immunity to. I would rather have the titres done than get all those shots for nothing.

Good luck!

Thanks for the help! I got my records thank goodness to the fast Ontario system and they were emailed to me in 5 min. Looks like I just need one shot now.
