Hello
My name is Luis. I hope someone can help me with my doubts.
I would like to know if I am eligible for Canadian PR.
I am blind, almost totally blind (I only see a little of light), and probably will become totally blind. In any case, I regard myself as totally blind, as my sight is useless already.
I read that, before 2018, it was impossible for a blind person, or a disable person in general, to immigrate to Canada, but that now it is not imposible altogether. However I am not sure yet if I qualify or not.
I do not understand well this thing about the economical impact, how could I calculate it. My blindness is caused by LCA, a degenerative condition of the retina which does not have a cure, or any kind of treatment, yet, and obviously it is not contagious. So I do not consider that Canada would need to Spend money on me whatsoever. I don't take any medication for my eye condition, and, in general, I don't think that I would need more money than everyone else. Probably the only think in which I spend more mony is technology, as sometimes assistive technology could be expensive. Nevertheless, I buy this things with my own mony.
I don't know, however, if using services of CNIB represents an economical impact and, if so, how to calculate it.
I have a bachelor's degree in linguistics, and am planning to study a master's degree in Canada in order to get the postgraduate work permit, work in Canada for some years, and, with that experience, apply for the Canadian Pr.
But I would like to know if I am eligible for the PR in the ferst place, as studying in Canada is very expensive, and if I am not eligible it does not make any sense to spend that money.
Of course I am able to work, and will work. the goberment does not need to provide for me.
Thank you in advance for your help with my questions.
Best regards
Luis
