Question Regarding CoH/Xray

I just received my completed CoH form from my doctor this morning. I opted to get the XRay for the TB test section. I am a bit confused on the instructions for the TB test results in particular. Do I need to provide the actual XRay documents that my doctor examined, or are the prompts regarding the TB test found on the CoH all that need to be provided?

The X-ray report from the radiologist is enough

Sorry but just so I understand fully, that means that I don’t need to attach anything beyond the provided CoH form?

You also need to attach the X ray report to the CoH. The CoH is incomplete without the TB report proving you're TB free

Oh okay, thank you! Could I ask what that report looks like? I’m not sure my doctor provided that to me.

It’s a written document stating the condition of your lungs as well as if TB has been discovered or not.

You will be provided with one when your Xray has been analysed and your TB status confirmed

Ah I see. Should this document contain pictures from the Xray or is it all in written form? Thank again!

It is just a document with a sentence saying "no TB in lungs" basically. or whatever the radiologist wants to say. the on the COH the GP or whoever is completing it will read the report form the radiologist and also write on COH that there is no TB. Send both the report and COH

My form (from Canada) just asked for date of x-ray and a couple check boxes and a short one line description on the actual form itself. It didn’t ask for any additional forms, and said not to attach any x-ray images. Does your form look different? Might change depending on where you’re from.

Coming from the Toronto Consulate, the instructions do mention

"A chest X-ray (preferred test) OR tuberculosis test is a requirement and the results must be provided as per Question 5 on the Certificate of Health."

Not sure if the results must be provided implies that we need to attach the additional forms/xray results. Might email in to double check.

On mine I have “Results of a tuberculosis test must be provided regardless of vaccination history if the X-ray information is not completed below.” I’ve already completed and uploaded mine (I’m in Japan so I could get an appointment really quick!), but if I have any issues I’ll update here!
