Medical

[J1983]

Hi there,

I recently received my ITA under CEC. I am due to complete my medical next week and had some questions regarding it. I have a mental health condition (obsessive compulsive disorder) which I have received some treatment for in Canada (I am on a working holiday visa).

1. Should I answer yes to the question - 'Have you ever had a serious mental or physical condition' on my application form? Will this effect my application?
2. There was an admission of cannabis use on some of my medical history documentation. Will this be a problem also?

Thanks for you help.

I'd say, always be honest ... because if they do their research well and they find out, you're in the sh*t.

Anyone have any thoughts on the 2nd part of this question?

Do you just want somebody to give you the permission to lie? Nobody needs to make that decision for you. Go ahead!

No, didn't mention anything about lying. Just wondering if anyone has gone through a similar experience and what the outcome was.
