Concerning Canada, there are 4 clinics that use ClinicalRSVP. A finger scanning database.
INC Research Pharma Medica BioPharma Lambda
The following don't. Apotex (claims they will never) Inflamax (has them on site, but don't use it)

Do the places in Toronto use VCT? Yes most do. 2 places supposedly don't(Apotex and Inflammax), I don't know as I haven't done a study at Apotex in 15 years and have never done one in Mississauga. Apotex claims they never will. Inflamax has them on site but do not use them. Don't know when they will suddenly switch!

Hi all, nice to meet you.
I've done a few trials in Toronto and I've overheard of people going to the states for higher payouts and Phase 1 studies.
I screened at Covance (Wisconsin) a couple months ago, was accepted and on my way to check in I got turned around at the b. Stupid me, when they asked what I was doing I told them the truth. "Clinical trial" what's that? "research study on medication" Is there compensation? "Yup" Big nono, since I'd need a visa if I was making money over the b, but it's not employment. They padded me down, fingerprinted me and sent me home.
They told me to get a Visa, but I don't think that's what I need. I cannot get an SSN, so I looked into an ITIN (Form W-7). In to apply for one of those, I have to first file taxes showing I need an ITIN. Now there is an exemptions table, but that is mostly gibberish to me.
I have a screening again at Covance in a couple weeks. I plan on playing the dumb tourist card this time, but I will have to cross the b when I check in the second time. If they catch me in the lie I want to be prepared...
Anyone have any clue? Any successful Canadians on this board still? I've tried searching, but no straight answer on this site.

In contrast I'd say Apotex is the best now, also offering the highest $$$. INC rarely posts new studies either, but they do Phase 1 there, so if you get in good for you.
