Who is the family member in relation to you? The answer is very important.
I assume you are either a PR or Canadian citizen?
Hey, My husband is South African, he is doing Ph. D in Canda, and will get a PR in serveral month.
Before he arrived Canada, we registered marriage in South Africa long time ago. We are gay couple. and he knows my HIV+ status.
He will sponsor me.

If he has applied for PR, then he MUST include you in his application as a dependent since you are married. If he did not include you in his PR application, he MUST contact CIC NOW to let them know he is married and to add you to the application. Both of you must go through a medical and pass the medical in order for PR to be approved. Since you are HIV+, it's quite possible CIC may determine that your health condition will place a burden on the Canadian health care system and inform you that they intend to deny the application. If this happens, you will receive a "fairness" letter and will have the opportunity to respond to that letter and convince CIC that your condition will not pose a burden. I would recommend that you search for the word "fairness" and "HIV" on this forum so that you can learn more about this process and what you can expect. Note that if you are refused PR due to your condition - your husband will be refused as well. Both of you have to successfully pass the medical. Good luck.

It is VERY IMPORTANT to listen to scylla's advice and make sure CIC/IRCC knows about your marriage ASAP and definitely before he becomes PR. If you are not listed if he becomes a PR, then he committed misrepresentation (this a crime) and you can never be sponsored by him ever. This is extremely serious.

Has he already applied for PR?
Including you in the family information form of a study permit app is a far cry from being included in his PR app. You need to complete the medical, obtain the necessary PCCs and documents and fill out the forms.

If you are found medically inadmissible, his PR will be refused as well.

Yes he MUST be included in his husbands PR app for sure (either as accompanying or non-accompanying) or he can never be sponsored by him ever.
I think I've read on here that HIV+ people nowadays generally ARE deemed admissible, but it may depend on the amount and cost of medications required. Don't know much on that topic though. Do some searching through the forums and the google.

Just to add: you must be included on his application for a PR as his spouse. Just being listed on his application for a study permit and for a visitor visa is not enough.
People can be approved even though they are HIV+. It will depend on your medical.
