You can search the forums using "HIV" keyword and posts. If you apply, there is a big chance that you will get a procedural fairness letter, citing that your condition will bring huge cost on the Canadian Health Services and will ask you to explain how your condition will improve by time and that will not be a burden on the Canadian Health Services.

That’s not the case especially in larger provinces. Most HIV+ applicants also usually qualify for PR as long as they have no other health issues and their drug regimen costs under around 20k/ yr

What province you apply to typically has an impact. Students are covered by private student health insurance in some provinces and are covered by provincial insurance in other provinces. Larger provinces tend to provide a better chance of approval because they have better healthcare resources. What school are you applying for?

I am HIV positive. I have applied to PR in Jun 2023. I did cd4 and viral load on my own in My 2023. On the day of my appointment, I disclosed my condition and I brought a Letter from my Doctor explaining my current medical condition + my medication + all the details. After doing the medicals, I did not hear anything for three weeks until the last week of July. I haven't got my PR approved, however, my status says: medical passed on July 26th 2023 .... I hope this helps.

Did they ask how you would pay for medication?

it's normal process as student visa
there is no difference
There are some differences in medical consideration for international students and other immigration categories. International students either qualify for provincial healthcare or have to pay for private insurance through their school ir depends on the province. Certain provinces are reluctant to accept students with medical needs because of lack of access to healthcare in many small towns and some provinces lack specialist support pier for certain conditions. How people will pay for things like treatment can also be a factor for students. Not an HIV specific thing. In general Canada expects healthy young international students.and insurance policies through universities only provide a limited amount of coverage and low reimbursement amounts. Really depends on the province and the specific case.
