Hi,

I got the paper for medical check up and submitting landing fee last August 20, 2004. They asked to submit it within 60 days. Accordingly we have done our medical check up (Me, my wife and 2 years son) at the specified medical center. As we are expecting baby next February, the medical officer did not conduct the chest X-Ray for my wife only. All other medical reports except the chest xray report only for my wife (as xray is forbidden during pregnancy) were sent to the authority. Today I got a letter from the authority asking the doctor who conducted the medical check up, to submit also my wife's chest xray report to complete her medical assesment. They ask to submit the report. But there was a line in the letter mentioning to submit the report within 60 days from the letter of issuannce was cancelled by a pen.
My question is, my wife would not be able to perform the xray until delivery, i.e mid of Feb 05. Can anyone tell me, will that be problem if we submit the xray report for her after the delivery. In that case it seems that we have no other choice but to wait another five months.


What can we do now?

I was also pregnant when called to medicals and I did all the tests except for the x-ray, which were sent with my husband's medical results. either our lawyer or doctor told them I was pregnant so I didn't hear from them any further. after the baby was born I completed the X-ray, this was 4 months ago and I haven't heard anything since so I assume it is ok.

I think it's quite common for them to wait for pregnant women's x-rays, as long as they know.

Once the baby is born though he or she will also need their own medical. This was the case for my friend who is emmigrating to Austrailia. I presume it would be the same for Canada too !!!! ???

I guess so although as we are in Canada our baby is Canadian!
