    Hi Brunelle, yes you can be granted a visa. It is illegal in the UK to discriminate on the basis of HIV status. Being HIV positive will not prevent you obtaining a visa and sourcing work.

    Hi i have a degree in aviation management and i wish to apply for a job in the UK despite the fact I’m an HIV career do you think i can be granted a visa with this status?

    Hi Naveen, no you will not be rejected.

    Being HIV positive will not be a problem for entering the UK.

    Treatment in the UK is free regardless of residency status. Access is from sexual health clinics. You can find one close to where you will be staying here: https://www.bashh.org/clinics

    You can also carry your own medication through customs with a doctors note. Having around a months supply with you along with your medical notes can help speed up the process of access.
