Just to asked if someone have experience the same message from DIBP on the health assessment:
Examinations ready for assessment – no action required
The required health examinations have been completed and submitted by the panel clinic to the department. This person's case will be processed or referred to the department's migration medical services provider, Bupa Medical Visa Services, for further assessment.
My wife medical test were all completed including the additional Serum test as attached but DIBP seems referred it to their own medical services provider. For me and my sons medical results, we have no such kind of info basta nakalagay, no further action required and applicant visa can now continue processing the visa..
Health clearance provided – no action required
All health examinations required for the specified visa subclass have been finalised. Processing of this person's visa application can now continue. This will not occur until a case officer investigates the case in line with published processing times for the visa that has been applied for. Do not contact the department about health examinations in the meantime.
