TC 26-0862A: Civil Aviation Fit Certification

After renewing an aviation medical certificate by telemedicine, the Civil Aviation Medical Examiner (CAME) completes this Fit Certification and sends it to a holder found fit. The holder keeps it with their medical certificate or Aviation Document Booklet, since stamping the medical certificate in the booklet is not required for telemedicine renewals. The assessment itself is recorded in Transport Canada's eMER.

Who completes it

The CAME who did the telemedicine assessment completes the whole certificate.

Submitting and payment

How to submit it
The CAME sends the certificate to the licence holder, who keeps it with their Aviation Document Booklet; the assessment results go to Transport Canada through the eMER.

Good to know

  • Telemedicine renewals can be done by telephone, audio-conference or video-conference; video is optional.
  • Holders whose last examination was by telemedicine cannot renew by telemedicine again and need an in-person examination.
  • Routine tests such as an electrocardiogram, urine testing, audiogram and vision testing are not required for a telemedicine renewal when clinically appropriate.
  • If telemedicine is not enough, the CAME ends the assessment, schedules an in-person exam and submits the incomplete results through the eMER.

Frequently asked questions

What is Transport Canada form 26-0862A?

The Civil Aviation Fit Certification a Civil Aviation Medical Examiner completes and sends to a holder found fit after a telemedicine renewal of their aviation medical certificate. The holder must keep it with their Aviation Document Booklet, because stamping the medical certificate in the booklet is not required for telemedicine renewals.

Who can renew an aviation medical by telemedicine?

Many renewal holders, but not everyone. Transport Canada requires an in-person examination for new applicants, holders whose most recent certificate validity ended before March 17, 2020, holders whose last exam was by telemedicine, and anyone asked by another CAME or by Transport Canada to attend in person.

What if a telemedicine aviation medical isn't enough?

Transport Canada tells CAMEs to end the assessment, schedule an in-person examination and submit the incomplete results through the eMER. The Fit Certification is issued only when the CAME assesses the holder as fit through the telemedicine renewal.
