Physician examination. Bloodwork and chest X-rays are not routinely required for this age group.
One Stop Immigration Medical
A considerate medical for O'Neill seniors.
Sponsored parents and grandparents deserve an appointment that respects their pace. Our Ajax clinic offers a panel physician exam with bloodwork on site and a chest X-ray in the same building, so older patients avoid extra stops.
Older applicants from O'Neill
Fewer stops for older patients.
For an older O'Neill resident, every extra waiting room and car transfer takes energy. At our Ajax clinic, the panel physician exam and bloodwork happen in one suite, and chest X-rays are done within the same building, which keeps the visit as contained as possible.
Some older applicants have lived in O'Neill for years with adult children, while others have only just arrived to join family. Start with the applicant's own instructions, and our team will help arrange a suitable appointment and explain what records to bring.
Choose the right exam
- Canadian immigration medicals
- For O'Neill residents seeking permanent residence, a parent or grandparent visit, or a medical for work, study or a refugee claim. Have the IRCC request nearby when calling.
- New Zealand medicals
- If an older relative in O'Neill is moving to New Zealand, we offer full and partial medicals. Share the examination instructions so we can confirm the correct services.
- Embassy medicals
- An older O'Neill resident travelling on to Saudi Arabia, Greece, Thailand or Taiwan may need an embassy medical, so ask us. Send the destination's forms and testing requirements before the older traveller's visit is booked.
Let the applicant's instructions lead.
Adult children often take charge of booking, but the requirement belongs to the applicant and is set out in their own paperwork. Confirm whether an upfront medical is expected or whether IRCC has asked for one. If a request letter has arrived, tell our team about it and the deadline it mentions.
Review the official guidance for permanent residence applicants or visitors, students and workers.
A steady pace through the visit
What to expect on the day.
With testing in one building, older O'Neill patients avoid travelling between several locations. Ask how long the appointment may take before arranging a driver or caregiver, since extra reports or investigations are occasionally needed.
Settle in at check-in
At Suite 403, the applicant presents their identification and medical papers. Tell staff if the name on an older passport differs from newer documents or if a passport was replaced recently.
A conversation about health
The panel physician discusses past illnesses, medications and current treatment. This is the moment to mention hearing, vision or mobility needs and any concerns about the examination.
Only the tests that apply
Our team explains which tests are required. Blood is drawn on site and chest X-rays are in the same building, so an older patient does not have to travel to a second address.
Leave with the paperwork sorted
Keep the eMedical information sheet safe. Before leaving, ask if anything is still outstanding, and follow the application instructions for providing proof of the exam.
Getting organised at home
Gather the records that explain today's health.
Older applicants may have a thick file of records from several doctors and countries. Pick out the reports that describe current conditions and recent treatment, and place them with the passport and request letter. A tidy, current folder is more useful than every page ever written.
Bring a medication list that includes over-the-counter products and supplements as well as prescriptions. Let us know ahead of time about language support, a walker or wheelchair, or a family member who will come into the appointment. Wear comfortable clothing and follow any preparation advice given personally.

- The senior applicant's own passport or other accepted identification, not a relative's.
- Their request letter or medical form, if issued, plus the application instructions.
- An updated medication list showing each name and dose.
- Recent reports, specialist letters or test results about ongoing conditions.
- Glasses, contact lenses or hearing aids, if normally used.
- In-date coverage documents if the older applicant is a refugee claimant asking for coverage.
Fees for O'Neill applicants
Confirm the cost in advance.
The age bands below show the fee that applies to the applicant. If a spouse or another relative is also attending, their fee and tests may be different, so confirm the total when booking. An embassy medical, or any investigation added for an older applicant, has its own price to discuss with us.
Ages 11–14
$200
Physician examination and chest X-ray. Bloodwork is not routinely required for this age group.
Ages 15+
$250
Physician examination, blood testing and chest X-ray are part of standard testing for this age group.
Payment options
Whoever is paying, whether the applicant or an adult child, can use cash or debit, while a credit card adds a $10 transaction fee. If the physician requests more testing, ask about the cost before it is arranged.
Refugee claimant coverage
Refugee claimants in O'Neill should call ahead with their Blue Cross coverage details. Bring valid documents to the visit so our team can confirm eligibility and covered services.
Testing can vary with your medical history or IRCC instructions. The panel physician will confirm what is needed for your case.
Once you are home in O'Neill
A clear path after the appointment.
Finishing the appointment and completing the medical file happen at different times. Our Ajax clinic submits Canadian immigration medicals through eMedical once the required exam and reports are in. Keep the information sheet where the applicant and family can find it.
We ask O'Neill families to let two weeks pass before checking in about the submission. That two-week mark is our own follow-up guide and says nothing about how long IRCC will take. If a further report or test is needed, we will explain what is outstanding. If the family member who usually takes our calls changes, update the contact details with us.
Contact our team about the clinic's submission, and check the applicant's IRCC account for the application's progress. Findings come from the panel physician, but the decision on the exam and on the parent's or grandparent's application rests with IRCC. Read IRCC’s medical exam guidance.
Personal health records
A copy for the applicant?
Once the case has been submitted, an electronic copy of the results can be requested. Asking for one is entirely the applicant's choice and makes no difference to what we submit through eMedical.
$10 copy service fee
Allow up to one week after payment for electronic delivery.
It records the immigration tests the older applicant completed with us. If the applicant has a family doctor or specialist in Oshawa, the report can be shared at their next appointment.
Order your resultsTravelling from O'Neill
An easy trip to plan for older patients.
Come to Suite 403, 300 Rossland Road East, Ajax, ON L1Z 0M1, inside Rossland Radiology. There is no Oshawa office, and free parking is available at the building, which helps when a relative is dropping off an older patient. Keep the suite number handy for check-in.
Families driving from Oshawa usually take Highway 401 west through Whitby. Plan where the driver will wait and how the patient will get from the car to the suite comfortably. Use the full Rossland Road East address and leave generous time so nobody feels rushed.

Health history, told in a familiar language.
Older applicants often explain their health most accurately in their first language. Our team speaks English, French, Dari, Farsi, Filipino, Punjabi, Urdu, Hindi and Arabic. Call ahead to confirm who will be available, or to arrange for an interpreter to attend with the applicant.
Bringing a parent and other relatives?
Let us know whether a spouse or other relative is booking alongside the parent, and give us everyone's age. If a caregiver's schedule, a driver's availability or the applicant's need for rest shapes your plans, explain it so the team can discuss appointment options.
