Can we sponsor parents who have pre-existing illness ?

Hi all,

Will there by any problem if we sponsor our parents who do not have their health in perfect condition? What if one of the parent has kidney related issues? WE can't leave him back in home country as he is not well? Any way out? Will he become inadmissible due to medical reason?

It will all depend on how much they determine the cost of care will be (medical inadmissibility). If one parent is refused, both will be refused. And you can’t apply for only one.

There is no garantee on bringing your parents to Canada.
They could be inadmissible depending on their health condition (not just healthy or sick but on how much their condition will cost for treatement) but they may be OK. There is possibility on both cases.

We cannot tell from here. If you cannot leave him back in home country then you need to reconsider living in Canada.
Also PGP have been changing the last few years. No one really know what is going to happen in the next few years.

How about bringing your parents under the super visa programme?

You will pay for their health expenses while their stay in Canada for up to 2 years.

If your parent has a kidney condition that currently requires dialysis or is likely to need dialysis in the future there is a high likelihood of refusal. If receiving dialysis even a supervisa would be unlikely. The cost of care is substantial. Bringing parents too Canada is far from guaranteed. The Canadian medical system can not service the current population so there is likely to be pushback about bringing more seniors to Canada. Remember that you are immigrating by choice and that involves leaving your parents. As others have said if you can’t leave your parents then moving to Canada may not be a good option.

All depends on the severity. Kidney disease given his profile is very lucky and that would be the thing to be most worried about.
