The answer depends on the following factors:
- Whether you wish to work in a sector where the protection of public health is a priority, including professions in healthcare, childcare, or primary and secondary education;
- Whether you will be working in the agricultural sector and live in a designated country or territory; or
- Whether you want to work in Canada for more than six (6) months but have lived in a designated country or territory for at least six (6) months in the last year.
If any of these circumstances apply to you, you most likely will need to submit a medical exam as part of your application. However, you do not need to submit a medical exam until you have received instructions from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada to proceed with this requirement.
