Hopefully before you have sex if you plan to keep them. Having HIV is one thing. A lie by omission is an entirely different issue.

Another thing people are not mentioning is, is there are still HIV laws in your jurisdiction, you must follow them first and foremost. You dont want to risk jailtime.

Lie about your name and tell about your status. If you got rejected, its fine, they dont know your real identity. But, If you got accepted. You can now tell about your real name. They could still forgive you and they would understand why you try to conceal your name.
