    Hi!!! My partner and I lodged a 573 Student Visa. She is the primary. I am her dependent. We've done everything, took her IELTS, passed, & got her CoE. Just waiting for my medical to be cleared and Visas hopefully to be granted.

    June 6: Had our medical done
    June 10: Medical of my partner received. Mine is referred to Sydney
    June 25: Call from Au Embassy but missed the call
    July 1: Au Embassy called back. Medical is still not cleared

    It has been past 14 days. I understand that 573 is a streamline processing so considered as a low risk. Do any of you happen to know how much longer before my medical gets cleared and our Visas? We have an agent, but the CO is not giving anything. We have to be in Au before June 22.

    Hi @gene_borres, I heard from a friend that IOM (International Organization for Migration) offers discounted fares and concessional baggage allowance via Qantas for new migrants going to Australia. You may inquire siguro via [email protected]. Though they assist with one-way travel to Australia, malaking tulong na din. :)

    @cgm parang hindi pa po kailangan ng NBI clearance ng child nyo. 18 yrs old and above lang yung required (correct me if I'm wrong na lang guys). For the medical check up Im not sure sa 3 y/o. Anyone here who knows the answer to cgm's question? :)

    Curious lang po ako, ano po kaya mga dapat na certification/s ng PM in case maghahanap na ng work sa OZ? Ano ano po mga certifications nyo? Thanks po.
