Hello all, I was wondering if anyone had any experience with Medical Waivers? I have Crohns and take infliximab every 8 weeks via infusion. I am eligible to apply for PR on the temporary residents transition scheme next month (457 to 186) but don't want to do this if there's a chance the medical waiver will fail. For those that don't know, if your meds are gonna cost more than $40,000 over 5 years you will fail the medical. For those people the next chance is looking at medical waivers. I'm young, no dependants, and earn a good salary so have lots of positives, but before spending $12-15k I was hoping to speak with someone that has gone through the process to see if it's at all possible. Anyone have any thoughts? Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz
