Parent sponsorship and rejection on health grounds, proceeding to appeal process

[nush78l]

Recall that CIC looks at possibility of medical excessive demand for a period of up to 10 years after the applicant would land as a PR. So even if the applicant's current situation is stable, CIC doctors may feel he would need more treatments (in this case dialysis) at some point during his first 10 years in Canada (so any age up to 85), which would then exceed the excessive demand criteria.

a demand on health services or social services for which the anticipated costs would likely exceed average Canadian per capita health services and social services costs over a period of five consecutive years immediately following the most recent medical examination required under paragraph 16(2)(b) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA), unless there is evidence that significant costs are likely to be incurred beyond that period, in which case the period is no more than 10 consecutive years;

Does refusal for PR on health grounds mean obvious refusal for visitor visa or super visa?

Well he had numerous test done and at the time the super visa was applied for he had to undergo a series of same test at that time they did approve the super visa which was valid for the duration of his passport validity so his super visa has also expired as he had to renew his passport.

There is no excessive demand criteria for super visa, since all healthcare costs would need to be covered by a private travel insurance plan. So the criteria for approving is vastly different vs a PR application.

Not at all, as there is no excessive demand criteria set for visitor or super visa. As long as you are prepared to pay for all medical costs out of pocket or with private insurance, a TRV or supervisa should still be possible.

Hi! All
I sponsored my parents in 2010, and my parents application for Canadian PR was rejected on health grounds due to my father having renal failure and hence being an excessive demand on Canadian healthcare. CIC has sent me a letter indicating I can appeal this decision as a right of sponsor. Any one have a similar experience and any suggestion as to how to proceed with the appeal and what are the chances of success . Thanks.

Hi

I want to apply for my parents super visa but not sure if my father will pass the medical tests, as he was reported having SLE and Lupus and shows 2+ protein in urine routine. Seeing your post, i have a hope that super visa could be successful. Could you please guide me with your experience. Plzzzzz
