Line up. PR's do not get a vip treatment in VFS. Treated similar as student, visitors, workers,. However once the employee get to know that you are a PR expect some amount of gratitude and appreciation.Xoxo

Covid isn’t going to be over for quite some time and you won’t be given an unlimited PRTD. Maximum people usually get is 6 months. You may not be able to travel for 2+ years if you are waiting for covid vaccinations to be somewhat distributed. What will you do about the cost of your anti-rejection medication? You can bring a 3 month supply but Canada doesn’t have universal pharmacare. If you come to Canada before covid is more controlled how will you work when covid is still around? You don’t seem to have any Canadian experience so finding a job where you can work from home may be quite difficult. You will also have to wait many months to get into to see specialists to monitor your condition. The medical system has even more backlogs due to covid. Do you have family support in Canada if you can’t leave the house or need to be hospitalized?

Really depends on your personal situation especially your finances. If you only feel comfortable being at home it may be difficult finding work. Will depend on how long you’d be able to remain jobless. Paying for medication also becomes an issue in many provinces. Covid still remains an issue so travelling will be an issue for a long time. You have many considerations to consider and only you can make a decision when to apply for a PRTD based on H&C.

Hi

Medicine through courier can be obtained from india? Or not.
1. No, prescription medicine can't be imported for personal use.

Health Canada prohibits the importation of prescription drugs by courier when imported by Canadian residents for personal use. The importation of prescription drugs for human use is strictly regulated and is only permitted by certain entities.
