You should certainly try but kidney issues is one of the big reasons people are denied because dialysis is so expensive.

No, not a crime , but totally ridiculous

...pass the immigration screening easily). Only 25% of the latent cases turn active and that too in immuno-compromised individuals. Even diabetes can turn latent tb into active tb. Don't be surprised if someone drives a Merc and is being treated for TB. It's a popular misconception that TB only...

@wickerman Hi, my parents case is very similar to yours. My mom has been diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome since the past year and has been taking oral medicines like ACE inhibitors. Looking at the trail of messages you have posted recently, looks like your parents have been approved. Could...

...medical insurance will only cover emergencies and once stabilized people are expected to return to their own countries to receive care. Her diabetes and high blood pressure medication will not be covered and she will can only bring a 90 day supply of medication. Canada does have a program...

Hi, My mom had some scars in the chest x-rays when she did her medical for super visa in 2017. So she had to do sputum culture and it was all negative, and she was placed on medical surveillence(needs to be done when she enters Canada). Last year when she was here on her visit, I got her to the...

...privately first. Except for contagious diseases most other illnesses doesnt matter from what I know. only issue is when visa officer thinks you will be a burden to the Canadian healthcare system. For example if you have a disease such as diabetes which is controlled, hopefully it wont be an...

...She is on medication for it though. However, she is not on dialysis or anything. She doesn't require insulin though. She has type 2 diabetes, but its controlled with pills. Any idea on what kind of kidney conditions are rejected? As of now she is on ace inhibitors and diuretics, to control BP...

Unfortunately with stage 4 kidney disease the chances of needing dialysis at some point is very high. You should also tabulate the cost of his insulin plus diabetic supplies. You may be quite shocked at the cost.

...healthcare expenses to be under 25000 CAD in 2 years time (i may be bit off here, but this should work for general idea), and generally nothing that gets transmitted easily, f.e. tuberculosis. If your spouse only has say diabetes or smth, that is going to be ok entirely for passing the meds.

Thanks so much for your reply. You took out time to respond to my query. Do you have any experience or else have you seen any case of diabetic type 1 who was granted the PR. Can you elaborate what is drug formulary and how to use it. Also what is the fairness letter? Thanks again

If your mother don’t have her prescription than the walk in clinic might send her for blood glucose testing and he/she can do blood pressure measure at clinic. Also take her empty medicine bottle with you as well.

You can bring up to a 90 day personal supply of the diabetic medication into Canada. I don't know about the ayurvedic medicines. Herbs can sometimes be a problem. Make sure you declare them and be prepared for the possibility they may not let them into Canada.

Thanks a ton.. :)

...because the poor will always use more. Also poverty is a known and proven risk factor for poor health and more morbidity. Just Google "poverty as a risk factor for (insert disease heart disease diabetes osteoporosis etc)" So if you take in poor people you pay more for their healthcare . Proven

Agreed with the above. Not declaring he has diabetes is a very risky move and a bad idea. If he has any sort of issues that ends up in an insurance claim, you can expect the insurer to deny the reimbursement because you failed to declare a pre-existing condition. In other words, lying in the...

...she will get a procedural fairness letter. Given her anti-rejection drugs and nephrology follow-up appointments and tests along with her diabetes which may require medication and endocrinologist appointments she could be deemed to be too much of a burden on the Canadian health system. I...

thank you, sir. i-note ko po mga suggestions nyo.. type 2 diabetes naman po ang meron siya so most probably we'll need to get a health card that covers lab tests.

Yes, thank you :) I thought blood test covers other possible problems such as diabetes or cholesterol as well, this is quite a simple blood test. (I have some congenital heart abnormality that has not caused any trouble for me yet but might in the future, so I'm a bit concerned about the...
