Medical Treatment Question in Tier 4 Application UKVI

Post by great42 » Sat Dec 01, 2018 10:28 pm

Hello Everyone!
I am having a dilemma and not sure how to answer the Medical Treatment Question asked in the Tier 4 General visa Application.
I have been to the UK in 2016 and came back to my home country after I completed my studies. Now I want to come back to the UK for Ph.D. During that period I was both given treatment at the hospital and also went for general treatment to my GP.
I am going to explain my illnesses so that it makes sense.

1. Hospital Treatment: When I went to the UK, as an international student, I went through some blood tests and I was being told that I have latent TB. (means I was only exposed to TB and It was not active). I had 3-4 appointments with the doctors at the hospital and had to do monthly blood tests for 6 months and I was also given free medicines for that period. I am now fully free from that illness Phewwww :D.

2. GP: As a result of the Latent TB, I was all the time anxious and started to have panic attacks because I have never had such kinda illness ever. I was going to see my GP every month and I was paying from my own pocket for Prescriptions every single time I was buying medicines.
PS: I also paid IHS charges while making my visa application.

On the Application, I do not know what treatment should I Include, Makes me worried if I Put GP information or Hospital Treatment. I do not really want my application to be refused based on this Question. If I put GP information, UKBA might think, That I am hiding Latent TB illness information from them which I have no intentions to do so.

Would highly appreciate members' assistance in this regard.

That's why you should include all the treatment.

Again, that's why you list it all. Plus, TB screening is part of the application, if appropriate.
I do not give immigration advice. I refer you to Immigration Rules, guidance, other online content and to your sponsor.

Thank You so Much, Sah.

I was Panicking because I thought I can Only include one treatment. Did not know that upon completion of one section another window opens to put other relevant details.

Thanks Once Again. :D :D :D :D
