On Tattoo and Medical Examination

Is having a tattoo a problem in Medical Examination?  Will it cause medical inadmissibility?  These are common questions from applicants with tattoo.

The answer is no.  But it will sure cause you additional expenses for the laboratory (blood) test for Hepatitis.  I haven't heard yet of an applicant whose application was refused due to medical inadmissibility just because of having a tattoo.

And speaking of tattoo, our very own legendary tattoo artist, Whang-od, is featured in International Exhibit at the Royal Ontario Museum.

Canadian Immigration Consultancy: Making Canadian Dream Happen Since 1989

As career and life planner, Canadian Immigration Consultancy has guided more than 70,000 Filipinos in securing immigrant visas for Canada. We have set up graduates on a professional career path, reunited families, placed students on the education pathway to immigration, and demonstrated the benefits of immigration over an OFW life.

Time and again we have shown how immigration can help Filipinos work towards a more permanent solution to their financial challenges. We strongly advise against taking the quick but ultimately temporary fix of becoming an OFW.

Immigration though takes commitment. It also takes a consultant who is up to date on immigration regulations, quick to grasp opportunities when they open up for our clients and meticulous in guiding them through a maze of rules, processes and forms.
