Hello, thanks for posting this! I am applying for EE next month with 490 CSR score, I am also non european residing in France and currently taking Triumeq as my HIV medication (since 2018), I wonder what your medication was, because after I googled, triumeq is quite expensive in canada and I am so scared that I won’t pass because of “excessive demand to canadian health system” reason. Please kindly let me know if you have any input. Thanks and congratulations!

We passed our MEDICALS......... We are inland(all family members). Two members of my family are HIV positive and we concluded all the medicals in Feb 2020. IRCC applied Excessive Demand Public Policy and our medical was passed today August 12, 2021. We waited for about 18 months long silence------ waiting. We are very happy to see our medical passed. We are expecting the PR anytime from now..... HIV+ people should not lose hope.
