Hi everyone!
I've just lodged my visa 300 application online for my partner whom is in Vietnam. I am located in Australia, hence I am the sponsor and she is the applicant wishing to come to Australia.
I have two questions and hope someone may be able to assist me in getting some clarity.

I have received a letter from the department of home affairs asking for bio metric scans and photographs be taken of my fiance;
Question 1:
I understand this must be done in 28 days. After scanning and photographs, do they lodge these scans and photos to the immigration department for you, or are you given the information and have to send it off yourself, ie scan through the info and attach it online? (biometrics and photos were requested as an action online)
I have also received a HAPID and letter of medical referral for my fiance (I have been given permission to receive these letters on behalf on my fiance, as she doesn't speak much english)
Question 2:
There is no time limit given and we weren't assigned a case officer as of yet. Do we go through with arranging appointments as directed by the online action that says (action required - med. exam), and how do they send this information to the immigration department? Do they give it to us to scan through and attach online, or do they keep it secret and send it off to immigration themselves?
Thank you so much for any help you can give
Vu.
