Regarding pagpapamedical, IMHO I think it's a misconception na kelangan mag antay ng CO contact para magpamedical kapag gagawin mo sya after maglodge -- when actually, right after lodging your visa, you can already generate your HAP ID without waiting for CO contact. his is from my own experience lang kasi I took my medicals after lodging and since mabilis lang makuha results. So para sa akin, walang difference na magpamedical before or after lodging your visa kasi mabilis lang naman makuha yung results. Mas gusto ko na din kasing mas maaga nang nalodge yung visa ko - at least nakapila na kumbaga.
Siguro, a reason to recommend doing your medicals before lodging, is if you have reason to believe na baka matagalan bumalik results ng medical niyo. Otherwise, tingin ko same same lang.

Kasi as far as I can recall, mayroon talagang reminder na magfa-flash pag naggenerate ka ng HAP ID na you should not generate HAP ID if you had already lodged your visa to avoid further delay in the process. I think, it doesn't have to do with the medical process itself but yung assessment ng CO if ever. Kasi may question sa Visa application if you already had medical test prior the application. So if hindi pa, you'll answer NO dito..eh by that time na mareview na ng CO, nakapagpamedical ka na right after ng lodge. so supposedly YES na dapat yung nasa application mo. Ang gulo no? HEhehe. So yun nga..baka maguluhan si CO kaya may ganung reminder and yun yung magcause ng delay sa process or whatsoever.
I don't think they would make such reminder if it won't affect the process by any means.
Just my 2 cents though. To each his own.
All the best on your application. Good luck!

So ano masasuggest nyo? Medical na kami before lodging? I think pag ganito ginawa ko kelangan lang naman i-Yes yung sagot dun sa portion about medical before application no?
Kung magla-lodge ako bago magpa medical, yung CO ba dapat ang magaassign ng HAPID pag di ako nag generate?

Note that there's a difference with how you generate your HAP id before lodging (through my Health declaration w/ 9 pages to fill up) and after lodging (health assessment link available in account page w/ 1 page questionnaire to answer). I think what could possibly cause a delay is if you attempt to use My Health declaration to generate a HAP ID after you've lodged a visa application (instead of using the Health Assessment link available in the account page).
Good luck!

HAP ID is invalid. It must be up to twenty (20) numbers + optional leading 'H'

Else, if you have the money na for medical, then I suggest go for it before lodging. Para less worry by the time na maglodge ka.
Either way, I think, you'll receive the grant kung ok naman lahat.
Good luck to all!!!

Yung mga bata, HEPA B test.
I guess pag may findings pero minor lang like mataas bp, etc..ina-advise lang pero di naman nade-deny.
May nabasa pa nga ako na cancer stage 1 sya pero na-approved pa din. Though you need to sign some kind of waiver ata yun na you'll seek and follow-up your health check-ups once you landed in Oz.
Mahigpit lang talaga sila sa TB. Any past history or indirect condition na magle-lead dito (like lung scar cguro), you need to undergo sputum test tsaka pag nagpositive is may 6mos na gamutan pa.
Pero di naman marereject ang visa mo..medyo maho-hold lang unless na-prove mo na OK na yung conditions mo.
Hth.
