Hi there,

I’m also very confused with the OSHC for the partner. My boyfriend who is applying for the student visa 500 already got his insurance when he paid for his university fees.
I didn’t realised that I wasn’t on. I am not sure if I can have a single health insurance or if it needs to be on my boyfriend’s (??)

Also, In regards of the lenght of it, his visa is running for two years and he has a two years health insurance. Is that a problem if I take one year insurance and just pay for the other year next year? Not sure if its clear.. the thing is I didn’t realise how expensive it was..

Unless you are on his visa and are formally registered as his partner, I can't see why you could not take out your own insurance,. Mind you, I am not qualified to give insurance advice !

Thank you for your answer. I just called the insurance, I've tried the one he is cover and another one. They told me that it's impossible to have a single insurance and that I need to be under his one (which cost 10K!!!!). Is there anyone who applied with a single cover? I'm so confused

Hi there,

If it helps other people, we payed for a dual insurance as it is required for the visa.
