You will need to undergo hepatitis testing if you are:
~pregnant
~applying for an adoption visa
~applying for a humanitarian or protection visa
~an unaccompanied refugee minor
~intending to work as, or to study to become, a doctor, nurse, dentist or paramedic in Australia.
Ang blood test lang na ginagawa for PR is HIV Test not unless siguro na idedeclare mo sa form na HepB Carrier ka, na they might do a test for Hepa. Yung test for Hepatitis, extrang test lang na ginagawa sa mga applicants tulad ng doctor, nurse, dentist at paramedics.
You don't have to worry too much kasi nakalagay naman sa DIBP page na hindi naman nila kinoconsider na threat sa public health yung Hepa maliban kung magwowork o magaaral ka sa medical field.
