Hi everyone,
We'll be taking our medicals soon for our PR application and our 3 1/2 year old son might has mild high functioning autism. Before COVID we were seeing many specialists, but since the first lockdown we were not able to get a final diagnosis... In the meantime he has significantly improved on many of his autistic traits, although due to COVID we can't get an updated medical evaluation that shows these improvements (e.g. he was almost non-verbal vs now talks a lot, had barely any eye contact vs now has good eye contact, was not social with other children vs now loves to play other children etc...). I'm so nervous about getting an excessive demand letter and having our application refused. I was so relieved to find this thread! It gives me hope!! If any of you has any tips on how to approach the medical exam and overall application I would greatly appreciate it. Did you also provide a Letter of Explanation along with your application explaining the Autism, or any supporting documentation other then the medical exam? Thank you!!! Wishing you all lots of luck with your applications!
