I am curious, how did you get the medical appointment so fast...
PMV 300 paid, collating documents now
Hi guys, thought I would share our progress so far;
Jan 22 2018 - Lodged application, paid $7,000.
Jan 22 2018 - Biometrics, Medical requested
Jan 23 2018 - Biometrics, Medical done
Ongoing - document attachment and collection
Once we have all the documents attached, we shall submit our application.
Question: Im suprised that the medical has been requested the same day after we lodged/paid the application. Is that normal? Ive read from others that it has been requested few days/weeks after the lodging.

In the Philippines the medical link appears very quickly, but then you need to make an appointment with one of just a few medical centres. I think it took us a couple of weeks to even get an appointment. But it was a 3 hr trip to get there, and quite a few hours waiting. Needed a hotel for the night.So am I!
Im starting to think that the medical will be requested automatically as soon as the application is lodged. We need to hear from others to verify this.
The Following Important Changes are also mentioned, but not yet on the DIBP website:Can you give a link for the recent changes? I tried to look for it but couldnt find any. Thanks.
Any applications lodged before and after 18 November 2017 and not finally decided may get refused without notice and without requests for further information if the application is not decision ready.
For applications lodged prior to 18 November 2017, the Department will provide only ONE opportunity to submit additional documentation.
This indicates that all applications MUST be decision ready, no more incomplete applications.
This was tabled in the Senate on: 13 Nov 2017: Migration Legislation Amendment (2017 Measures No. 4) Regulations 2017
Nov 2017: Changes to Partner Visa Lodgement Options - Britzinoz
We did almost all the uploads within 4 days of starting the application. Like you we did the preparations over the months prior.I did all my uploads the same day I submitted but it took me months of research & preparation to have it all ready to go.
We missed one, but were asked for it later.
That is the one change now, they may not ask for anything, and just make a decision.
