TB screening applicants FAQs

How will you test for TB?

Before we will accept your visa application we will ask you to contact our partner, the International Organisation for Migration (IOM), who will arrange for you to have a chest x-ray at an accredited clinic or hospital. If the x-ray shows signs of infections, the clinic will do other tests to find out whether you have infectious TB. This testing may require you to return on three consecutive days.
