You only file Form-109 with Institute with Medical Certificate issued by a Government Hospital. Such Form will be signed by your principal.


The time period is not specified by Institute under which Form-109 should be filed with Institute. However, this form-109 is valid only for a period of sixty days from the date of issue by the office of the Institute. The date of issue of this certificate cannot be prior to the date on which the FORM is issued by office of the Institute.
