Hi, all.

    Do you mean refund for the months that you won’t be using it because you will not be in Au anymore? Or refund because you changed your visa? We did a refund because we got our PR Visa prior to the grant of our Student Visa. I think it depends on the health insurance provider’s policy.

    @Cassey Thanks for sharing!

    Just got the email confirmation. Will be refunded 3 months worth of OSHC. I am with Allianz OSHC. Student visa just expired but already has lodged my 485 visa and already have OVHC as well. Cheers!

    @markier87 We were with Allianz before as well and we didn’t have any difficulties processing the refund from them. .
