I'm asking on behalf of my friend who applied PR under EE_CEC-inland. She has been waiting for the result of her PR application for almost a year and her upfront medical exam expired. She was diagnosed with cancer after she applied for PR. All her treatments were done and she was told that she is cancer-free now. But she worries that whether she has to redo her medical exam and if she is requested to redo her medical exam by IRCC, does she need to disclose her cancer diagnosis that can cause a refusal of her PR?
I have no idea about this issue, so please help my friend and much appreciated your advice. Thank you.
That is a bridge she will have to cross when she comes to it. You can't skip a second medical exam nor can you choose not to disclose it.
Technically, she should disclose a significant health diagnoses like this to IRCC proactively: if she gets her COPR, she will be told to inform IRCC if there has been a significant health change, and this is certainly one of those.
On the landing papers it says you must advise of any significant changes in health and family composition. If she was treated in Canada they will have access to medical care used. Not private medical data but costs.
What if she mentions the significant change in her health? COPR would be canceled and she can't get her PR status?
In other words, she was told that she is cancer-free now by her doctors and follow-up checkups, means she is healthy. so is it okay for her not to disclose any significant changes in health in the landing paper?
