Thanks for your reply. If it's a minor one, how long does CIC normally will wait for the applicant to recover?arika said:I think it's impolite to ask what health issue do you have exactly, but as to your question I beleive it depends on the seriousness of your issues. If it's a minor one which can eliminated later on there's no reason for CIC to decline you.
I didn't quite understand what do you mean by "wait for the applicant to recover". As far as I know CIC doesn't usually wait for anyone and merely follows its procedured and timeframes set. That is to say that if you are required to provide medical certificate and it reports some health issues, it is completely to CIC officer discretion whether you are considered productive for Canadian economy or not.Surfing said:Thanks for your reply.

Thank you Arika for your input. This may be a rare case. It's still good to know what you have provided.arika said:I didn't quite understand what do you mean by "wait for the applicant to recover".

(disclamer: I'm not an immigration lawyer or CIC officer, so my knowlegde is based solely on information available from internet sources)
Unfortunalelly, cannot give you more detailed information on this matter. Maybe someone else faced similar problem and can share experience

Really appreciate all of the answers from you guys. I am still far to ME stage. Just want to know what will happen if there is any problem in ME. Based on these answers, most of people should advance to next stage after ME. That's good!namaste said:Difficult to answer without knowing the exact nature of the failed medical exam since every case is different and will be dealt with accordingly. What do you exactly mean by a 'failed medical exam'? Did you get a refusal from CIC for medical reason? If not, how do you know it's failed?
I am just trying to get some perspective here since you don't provide enough details. Just remember that medical inadmissibility is usually due to two factors: 1) your disease possesses a threat to canada (relevant in case of chronic communicable diseases like TB) and 2) your disease is very expensive to be treated and thus burdens Canada economically (for cases like cancer etc).
what about heart problems ?Surfing said:Really appreciate all of the answers from you guys. I am still far to ME stage. Just want to know what will happen if there is any problem in ME. Based on these answers, most of people should advance to next stage after ME. That's good!
