I am on same boat now. I applied for my parents PR visa. My father has heart disease and diabetic condition for the past few years. My parents got medicals request for PR last week and they went for medical test this week. During medical my parents provided all the records for existing medical conditions and the treatment which they are undergoing. But the doctor concerned about the heart condition.

Now, based on the physician's report, will they reject my parents application? I am bit worried.
Hi

No one on here can say whether your father will be declared medically inadmissible. It is very specific to each person, the level of their condition(s) and their projected medical needs. You will just need to wait and see what they say.

Private insurance and declarations that they will pay for their own care do NOT work in medical inadmissibility situations. Such promises are not legally enforcable. PRs have the right to healthcare.

I intend to sponsor both my parents under the PGP scheme. My father has been diabetic for 35+ years and recently developed a heart condition too. My mother on the other hand is healthy.

a) So I wanted to know, if I applied under PGP sponsorship program for their immigration, with mother as primary applicant and father as her dependant, and during medical examination, my father was deemed inadmissible due to medical grounds, then will that cause my mothers application to be rejected as well or can I choose to pursue my mothers application separately at that point? Or must I make a fresh application for my mother alone later on?

b) If incase I decide to appeal the rejection on humanitarian grounds, which can take years to settle, will that hold back my mother's processing too?

Kindly advice, thanks.

See my first post in this thread. Nothing has changed since then.
