Applying for PR and my son has Mild autism

[Naturgrl]

ok. Thanks for the info. Any idea how do they calculate the expenses??

If for autism they will look at the cost needed for any treatment covered by provincial health care. The psychological assessment usually outlines the treatment plan and recommendation In Canada, any psychological assessments, speech and language therapies are paid out of pocket or by private insurance. So they are looking at costs of therapies like ABA. If needed for severe cases of those on the spectrum, it can cost $70-80k per year.

my son has recently been diagnosed with Autism in Canada, he receives speech therapy at school, and has a student assistant in school - but the student assistant is assigned for his class, not specifically to him. no other therapy - we are waiting for Jasper. I am doing ABA therapy training so I can work with him. would all these impact our PR application?

I'm July 22 AOR, 2019
BC-PNP Paper based.
We did upfront medicals on June 9, 2020 but no one reviewed our medicals.
On October 21, 2020 we got medical request, I called IRCC and send a web form that we did upfront medicals.
Still waiting for update.

Thanks for the reply
Why did they ask for re medical because of your medical expired or something else
As we have applied online. Medical is expired in January. No updates in account profile
When I call IRCC, the auto system message says the same thing for the last 8 months; we r reviewing you medical examination. We don’t need any additional documents... blaa blaaa
Whenever I talk to IRCC agents they provide different information regarding application
Now waiting for gcms notes that I applied on 24 th September
So frustrating.. but can’t do anything, just wait wait wait

Not expired, No agent reviewed our medicals... So now we are waiting for an officer to look at our medicals.
Agent said it may be a glitch in the system but who knows...

Thank you !
I hope an answer will come soon so I will feel proud to say to other families that no need to worry about a child with autism.
I just hope that one day people will find this info useful and will save the pain and nerves like I have in this process.
It is very difficult that there is no information about it.

i’m also praying for your family, that you’ll receive good news soon. this will give us hope for our case, although prior to deciding to pursue applying for canada i’ve read about the changes in its medical inadmissibility policy last 2018 that’s why we started the process of applying, and i have seen forum of an applicant who was at last given PR with the same case as ours after the changes but can’t find the thread. anyway hoping that this will also be the case for us all who are in the same situation.
