I mean the physician wont even know she has MS until we tell him because thanks to Almighty God there are nothing to be diagnosed of itphysically. Only keeping the right diet.
But you are legally obligated to inform the physician or its misrepresentation.

Your job would be to provide sufficient evidence that your wife’s case isn’t progressive and doesn’t fall into the medical inadmissibility category to counter a potential finding from IRCC.

according to below mentioned link it states the 5 year projection plan, it even gives an example of a MS patient in his 50's and on MS medication of which the calculations were done and since he was beyond the $20,000/- threshold. Hence medically inadmissable.

What do you think about this? as they do mention of patient being on specific medicines which cost (XYZ) in canada. but if someone is diagnosed and not at all on any sort of medication nor have any sort of disability. I mean the physician wont even know she has MS until we tell him because thanks to Almighty God there are nothing to be diagnosed of it physically. Only keeping the right diet.
And you will be advising the Dr correct ? Since you appear to be a devoutly religious person, mentioning God in your posts numerous times , and not mentioning it would be akin too........well, let's just say not the correct thing to do

In that example, they didn't need to go beyond 5 years to find inadmissibility. Expect them to use a 10 year projection for your wife.

As said by others, her condition must be disclosed. Failure to do so is immigration fraud.

For many people MS is not progressive and stays the same for 50 years or so....in some who have lesions in the spine have progressive RRMS...
MS is a progressive disease. CIS is a different diagnosis and usually leads to MS.

A doctor can do a quick neuro exam and identify a problem so you shouldn’t hide conditions especially because that is immigration fraud.

OK first thing first, i clearly mentioned metaphorically if one does not mention no one can even find about it because of her physical health which is aboslutely GREAT.

So chill out people, stop being judgmental and making me feel like a damn criminal where i asked the completely opposite of what are my options here.

I DID NOT POST ABOUT not telling the doctor anything did i? i am sure alot of you guys have clear English reading skills.

If you read about my post again if you may, please. I am trying to get the information as per the below link

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/excessive-demand.html

""They metion $20k per year medical cost to asses an individual with whatever he/she has. In example 1 halfway through the above mentioned link they also give a Scenario about a patient who has MS and takes a specific drug which costs $xxx in canada hence him being over the yearly threshold. ""

What is your take on this please? since my wife is not on any MS related drugs at all which would cost something wherever in the world.

Have you read about 10 year projection of a candidate on official website? if yes please share the link as i am unable to find anywhere any sort of data which suggests projection of 10 year.

That is a simplistic example. Cost of her whole care will be analyzed. Medication, tests, doctors visits, chances of permanent disability, etc.

MS is a progressive disease. How fast someone loses function or whether it is a cyclic thing unfortunately many MS patients do end up with expensive medication and often the inability to work. Your best solution is to provide the panel physician with more information like MRI results and a letter from her neurologist regarding current symptoms, diagnosis of type of MS, anticipated progression (although MS is tricky to predict and can be set off by things like pregnancy), etc.

Right in the main Excessive Demand page.

"over a period of 5 consecutive years immediately following the most recent medical examination required under paragraph A16(2)(b) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA), unless there is evidence that significant costs are likely to be incurred beyond that period, in which case the period is no more than 10 consecutive years"
