Dear all,
This is Marc, 34 years old male, IT professional with Bachelors and Masters Degree in Computing.
I am living with HIV since Jan 2023 and now I am HIV undetectable with good CD4 count and good health condition. My HIV is under control by the daily ART drug Dovato (Dolutegravir and Lamivudine) which costs around 1,000 CAD per month or much cheaper if I buy it in my home country.
I was planning to move to Canada with a Work Permit under EE/FSW and later obtain a PR, but now I'm not even sure if I can still get a Work Permit with my HIV condition.
Will my Work Permit application (apply from outside Canada) be rejected due to medical check failure? Or has anyone managed to obtain a Work Permit wth similar situation?
I would really appreciate if someone can shed some lights to me.
Thank you so much
Marc
