Will health issues affect my future visa applications and country options in Australia/New Zealand?

Yes, health issues can impact your future visa applications for countries like New Zealand and Australia, as both have strict health requirements for international students.

- New Zealand: You must meet an "acceptable standard of health." Conditions that could require extensive medical care or pose a public health risk may lead to visa refusal. In some cases, a medical waiver is possible.
- Australia: You must meet health criteria to ensure you do not pose a public health risk or require significant medical resources. Health waivers may be granted in some situations.

Be prepared to undergo a medical exam and provide detailed medical reports. Health insurance and proof of funds for medical expenses are typically required.
