Hi,

I have received a procedural letter regarding my medication cost. I am current using Humira, but, since I have been using it for over 6 years and now I in the remission phase, my doctor said I could change my medication.

But, I have said in my visa application that I was using Humira.

Would be a good mitigation plan to change my prescription to an affordable one?

You can explain that you are now in remission but whoever is evaluating will have to consider that you may have to go back on Humira. I would suggest hiring an immigration lawyer who has had good success with medical inadmissibility cases.

If you search the forum you will find many others with Crohns and usually taking Humira. Crohns is usually an automatic procedural fairness so you may want to see what lawyer they used if they got approved for PR.

Hi, I have searched the forum, but, none of the threads regarding Chron's disease and Humira have an answer. Apparently, they never return to post the outcome.

You should post your situation and ask if anybody got a positive response and if they used a lawyer who did they use. Hopefully someone will get back to you. I would also search medical inadmissibility or procedural fairness. Have definitely seen people get positive results in difficult cases. At least you may get a couple of names you can contact for a quick consultation before deciding what you should do.
