The Medical Council of Canada has introduced major changes to the LMCC process to help candidates obtain their LMCC earlier in their medical career.
âś… New Requirements:
• Pass MCCQE Part I
• Medical degree source verification
❌ 12 months postgraduate training no longer required
đź’» Digital LMCC will now be issued as the standard.
đź’° Admin fees are reduced or eliminated depending on application timing.
This is a big step forward for faster physician credentialing, especially for International Medical Graduates (IMGs).
Important update to LMCC eligibility and issuance starting January 26, 2026
