Tuberculosis

[itiswell]

Going thru this forum I have realised that all information regarding tuberculosis and PPR ends after the 1st page with not much infromation given by pst seniors on their experience with it. I know the percentage of people affected is small but it will sure help to know how these scenarios played out in the past with peoples past experiences. I was diagnosed of active tb after medical furtherance and presently on medications. I would appreciate seniors who have gone thru this to give their experiences especially regarding time lines after completing treatment and getting PPR. I have read qorax information that visa woud not e refuse on grounds of active tb and I hope so desperately. Please can any affected in the past share their experiences? Also anyone waiting for PPR can join in....

Dear, mine was inactive tb. Still I talked to dmp and other active tb patient. After completion of ur treatment, ur dmp will take x-ray and send full report to rmo. If u're cured(sure u'll), u will get ppr and may be pcc/proof of fund request again. During my ferthurance, forum seniors advised me same as well. I also met 2 Bangladeshis who went through same process and are in Canada now. Ur processing will be delayed only. Just relux and be regular in taking medicines same time everyday. Tb is life threatening but curable. Ur life should be always in 1st priority.

Its very important topic especially for people of SARC region.But due to hesitation and low incidence of disease little is said about this.our interest in the topic is with reference to canadian immigration and only the affected person can highlight the real scanrio .As for as the disease is concerned its curable and less hazardous with latest chemotherapy. So the sceniors , who had gone through this experience ,are requested for participation in this topic .Especial focus should be
A=In active TB,the usual approach of VO.
B=After getting treatment ,how VO interact
C=What is the affect of old TB on immigration medical exam.

In put of the sceniors w'd be highly appreciated .

Sunasir, u'r so right...there are comments here and there on the forum with efforts to start a thread but after a page this ends...this tb issue exists and can occur, causing much delay in the processing time. there is more information on inactive tb than on active tb that's why i decided to start the thread to get insight into the how much time it would take and the expectations of cic after completion of treatment.I wish this thread is a thread where people affected can look at and get at least some information and allay their fears and concerns. So far I appreciate everyone's contributions..thank u!

Dear
a lot of theoratical and practical knowledge could be shared but as I already said our intention is immigration related tuberculous concerns so dont worry if its there it w'd remain alive

 

[itiswell]

well, let me share a little theoretical knowledge 'All applicants who are diagnosed clinically, radiologically or bacteriologically as having active pulmonary tuberculosis must be treated and rendered “inactive” before entry to Canada'..i got this from this link...http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/publications/dmp-handbook/appendix-02.asp...so this confirms that the PR would come but the major concern is when?

These are recent IMEIs related to conditions of significance with tuberculosis being on the list.
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/partner/pp/pdf/IMEI_Tuberculosis.pdf explicitly shows the instructions to DMPs concerning active and latent tb cases.

Hello shivanidixit123, apologies for this late reply; i don't come to the forum often. To answer your question I haven't gotten the visa yet. But I'm hopeful. I was instructed to repeat my medicals in July this year and with that medicals the DMP attached a pulmonologist's report on my completed treatment, response and other info. In October they requested for a repeat chest X-ray which I have carried out. So I'm still waiting. Dont worry, just focus on your treatment,complete it as diligently as possible and get better. All the best!
