The Visit Canada alerts section no longer lists the prior country-specific Ebola bans (living in DRC/South Sudan/Uganda as of May 27, 2026; visited DRC in past 21 days as of July 20, 2026). It now states only that temporary Ebola measures have been extended until September 28, 2026. Consultants should re-check client travel from affected regions against the linked special-measures page, since the hub text no longer restates the ban details and the end date is newly given as September 28, 2026.

Each citation is quoted verbatim from its source and links back to it. Navisa does not paraphrase the rule — read it as written.
“Every foreign national who must submit to a medical examination, as required under paragraph 16(2)(b) of the Act, and who seeks to enter Canada must hold a medical certificate — based on the most recent medical examination to which they were required to submit under that paragraph and which took place within the previous 12 months — that indicates that their health condition is not likely to be a danger to public health or public safety”

When a change lands, the engine re-checks the files it affects
Navisa is an AI file-prep engine for Canadian immigration firms. It reads the documents on a file, cross-checks them, runs the eligibility analysis against retrieved official sources, and flags what an officer would — citations attached. It does not replace the judgment of a licensed immigration professional; a consultant reviews and approves the work.
Navisa Prep is document-preparation software for individuals — cited comparisons and options, never advice. The Navisa platform is the case engine for licensed firms.
