Hello,
I got ITA UNDER CEC class and during medical they found multiple larger nodular on chest which indicates tuberculosis and i gave sputum samples my smears were negative now I'm waiting for culture result. They also refer me to tuberculosis specialist for further investigation regarding my case. My question is that if i get positive for tuberculosis then will i need to wait for submitting further documents means to submit pr application or should i submit application after diagnosed
May they put my file on hold till treatment or reject my file due to medical

Please reply if someone know about this.
Thanks in advance

You should still submit your application. However it's quite possible you will need to go through a number of months of treatment for the TB and complete additional medical exams before your medical can be approved. This will mean your application will take a number of months longer to process.

There are 2 inadmissibility;
1. Medical and 2. Criminal.
With yours It might be denied or that your application returned untill you are given a clean medical bill. The immigration would advise you better.
Get well soon bro.

Before your application is approved people have to complete their TB treatment and prove they no longer have TB.
