    actually there are several people in this forum with the same medical issue, a few successed. Their conclusion is to collect the information by yourself and communicate with your own doctors as lawyers can only help with the format of the explanation letter.

    I don't know Humira is so cheap compared to Remicade. RAMQ price is 1428$ one package (40mg total, 2 shots). I assume this is the price per month? Do you see any professional fees on it? This sounds better than Remicade.

    Hello, do you know if the cost of your Humira excesses 19960$ per year. If not, you don't need worry. 19960$ should include the professional fees. For Humira, as you make shot by yourself, I don't think there is a lot

    Help with medical inadmissibility for PR application, Remicade

    Thanks for the nice reply. My wonder is about the new rule of the Quebec public drug plan: they will only cover this medication if you are already reimbursed from an insurer before Feb 2017. In my case, I was using compassionate drug, which arguably means they cann't approve my coverage when I...

    Thanks for the reply. How did your specific doctor describe your dosage/frequency in the next 5 years? How the immigration office calculate your annual expense?

    Help with medical inadmissibility for PR application, Remicade

    I would like to ask questions about medical inadmissibility related the cost of remicade. I am applying for PR, however, the big cost (over 35000$/year) of remicade is a big issue. However, there is a slight chance here: the public drug plan (quebec) does not include remicade anymore. Instead...

    Hi, @ahmedhere, great job! I have the same situation as you have evolving remicade, but I have a question: According to RAMQ, they don't cover Remicade any more because they put Inflectra which is a cheaper biosimilar. However, there is a exception: if you are reimbursed by RAMQ or a insurer or...

    What is considered a serious disease?

    agree, but in many cases, people don't even think of it as serious, so they just intrinsically select no. But I think if you report it during the medical exam, it is still not the case of "misrepresentation"

    Question about Work permit extension (as closed WP) with CSQ

    To update, I got 13 months extentions for a closed work permit. However, it started two months earlier than the expiration date of my old open work permit. I also claimed for 4 months of open work permit that they owe me due to the expiration date of my old passport, however they didn't care.
