Does she need a medical for an extended visitor visa (I know she doesn't with the normal ETA)? If she does this and goes out to Aus can she get the medical for her CPV done over there (when we enquired over there for ours we were told they would probably be a lot cheaper)?
Thanks for your help

Hello Seff & Sarah
Mum's meds for her CPV can be done in Australia. The HSA Group of doctors are the only doctors who can do visa meds in Australia:

Mum would only need meds in connection with a subclass 676 tourist visa if she is or will be 70 or over when it is granted. If she needs to get a Visitor Visa Medical Certificate completed, her own GP can do it:
