Hi, can anyone tell me roughly what they have paid for their meds? We have just been sent a list of hospitals in South of England, but our local one (a private clinic) is going to cost about £800. Is this normal???????????:eek:

Blimey - it looks like thats the normal amount!!! There are 2 adults, one teenager and a 10 year old btw. Will prob just go local then! Wish the immigration was as expensive and rigid for people coming to UK - might not need to move then!!! LOL!

Hi Kim

 

If you go on the Australian Gov Website and look for panel doctors. The list for the South Coast is quite large. I am looking to go to Chichester for medicals: £100 plus 3 blood tests (I am a nurse) £60 plus HIV test £20. OH is medical £100 and HIV test £20. Chest Xrays are £75.00 each.

Hi there, we went to Caledonia near Gatwick, they pushed the results to Sydney in 4 days, don't forget to get a tracking number for your results, prevents any cock ups on behalf of the Aussies!

Don't know if they have corrected it yet, but the online application for the 457's gave us the wrong info regarding medicals for our kids.

All children have to have a full medical according to Australia house.

There is a reference on the online application regarding entering a school, college etc, which requires a full medical.

The online application told us our eldest son (16) and daughter (11) did not need a medical, but we soon got a quick reminder from diac, and had to take the two kids back for their med.

Found out today from my wifes job sponsor that the visa people were checking correct spelling of our names for the visa, so fingers crossed, won't be long now. this appears to be the final checks along with checking all the med results.

You can check your 457 progress online, although their website appears to be down now, probably due to all the visa apps going in!:rolleyes:

Hi Kim and Gary, not sure about the family cost but i was quoted £400 for the lot xrays and blood tests, medical. So i guess the £800 or so isnt far off the mark for a family.

all the best Mike
