Dear [requester]/Madam,
[am writing to follow up on my previous inquiry regarding the medical exam requirement for my client's work permit. [In your
earlier response, I received a general explanation concerning criteria for requiring a medical exam; however, my specific question
was not addressed.
My question is if they currently hold a work permit with no restrictions indicated, particularly in relation to areas that typically
require a medical exam (¢.g., healthcare, childcare). Could you please clarify whether, under these circumstances, they are
required to undergo a medical exam to maintain or extend their work permit?
Your guidance on this matter is greatly appreciated as they aim to ensure full compliance with IRCC regulations. If additional
information is needed, please let me know.
Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to your response.
Best regards,
