I'm starting the process of getting a Class 3 Medical (which I expect to be deferred due to past Depression/Anxiety/SSRI). I've already had consults with a Senior AME and HIMS Psychiatrist before starting, but at the time I wasn't aware of SI's and they didn't mention it. I expected the process would just be exam, deferral, a long wait, snail mail notice, then fists full of cash while jumping through hoops and you end up with a regular certificate like everyone else... but I've come across posts where people mention receiving an SI and recurrent therapist appointments.
So I was curious, what sort of limitations/requirements does an SI impose?
(for Depression/Anxiety/SSRI, in general, I expect it can vary depending on situation and whoever reviews the paperwork though)

- A shorter medical certificate validity period?
- Required periodic therapist appointments?
- Anything else?
- Do you have to go through the deferral/SI process again at each renewal?
