    Based on link below so long as valid when applying ie when you pay the fee then it is ok.

    https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration-rules/immigration-rules-appendix-t-tuberculosis-screening

    Any person applying to enter the UK as described in paragraph A39, Part 1 General Provisions of the Immigration Rules, must present at the time of application a valid medical certificate issued by a medical practitioner approved by the Secretary of State for these purposes, as listed on the Gov.uk website, confirming that they have undergone screening for active pulmonary tuberculosis and that such tuberculosis is not present in the applicant.
