As of Oct. 1, upfront medical exams are not required at the time of application for Canada’s Express Entry program.

Background: Immigrant medical exams (IMEs) are required for permanent residence. Foreign nationals applying for Express Entry cannot have the exam done by their own physicians; they must see a doctor on the list of panel physicians who are approved by the government.
