As the client lives overseas, how will the TAC conduct the impairment assessment?
The TAC will aim to have the client examined for impairment purposes before the overseas visitor returns to his/her country of residence. If this is not possible, the TAC will conduct an impairment assessment based on the information the TAC has obtained from the client’s treating doctor and/or medical specialist. If there is sufficient information, the TAC may determine the level of impairment without an independent medical examination.
