Temporary residents who plan to visit for six months or less generally do not require a medical exam unless they plan to work in certain occupations. Those who plan to visit for more than six months will require a medical exam if they have lived for six or more months in a row in certain countries or territories in the one year immediately before the date, they want to enter Canada, or if they will work in an occupation in which public health must be protected.
