I'll answer your questions based on my experience, so anyone please correct me if I'm wrong.
You can go ahead with your medicals even without CO yet but keep in mind that this will affect you Initial Entry date of your visa, usually the IED is the expiry date of your NBI clearance or Medical whichever comes first. but if you plan on moving/visiting to AU as soon as you have your visa I suggest you do your medicals before CO Takes about a week or two for your medical results to be uploaded and No the clinic doesn't provide a copy of your results.
Instead of IELTS why not just get a 'Certification of English as Medium of Instruction' from your wife's school, most school in the PH already knows this and have a template, or if you still opt for IELTS you can inform your CO about your wife's IELTS exam. Most give adequate time and consideration for you to complete the requirements before they ask for the 2nd installment.
Hope this helps! Thanks!

How would the CO normally determine the IED Date? A sample situration.
NBI Clearance form the Philippines December 18, 2013
Police Clearance from Abroad where you currently live January 25, 2014
Medical January 27, 2014
Ano dito yung IED Date? Is it the expiration of your NBI Clearance from the Phil or the Police Clearance from where you live (assuming that both expiration are one year from issuance) ?
Thank you.

It is not expiry rather it is one year after date of clearance and medicals; eto yung pagkaka-intindi ko...
Take note that sometime they would give IED with earlier dates that what we spoke of above.

1. Madami pong national ID sa pinas, SSS, Voter's ID, meron pa nga barangay ID.
2. Ok lang po kahit wala pa BC at passport si baby. After you lodge your visa, ayusin nyo kaagad. Kapag inayos nyo ang BC at passport ni baby now, before pa kayo magkaCO, marelease na yun.
3. You will need to pay the visa during visa lodgement. Cc or debit card ang payment.
4. Once you are done with the visa lodgement, pwede mo na magenerate yung sa medicals. Pero NBI clearance pwede ka na kumuha kahit di kp nagllodge ng visa.
Sana makatulong..

Thanks sa response. Congrats sa WASS natin.
Okay na ako sa lahat ng documents, medical na lang. Pwede ba magpa medical before assigned CO? per IMMI website, sila daw magadvise kung saan magpapamedical, at kung ano ung imemedical?
For police clearance, i've only secured NBI clearance. Sabi kasi sa website nila, NBI clearance daw ang required police clearance for PH.
