Just hoping whatever they do we are not waiting ages as his medical cant be sent of until this is resolved.... By resolved i am assuming they mean fixed ? We are not sure if they can lodge his medical on the system after his appointment with the paediatrician with a report or if they need to have operated/started hormones?

He got referred for undescended testes ? The doctor that performed the medical said he couldn't find them and that he needed a paediatricians report, we went to the GP for him to complete the form and to get a second opinion and he said the same ! Long story short we are hoping the paediatrician says he is fine, worst case senario we will be waiting for an operation before we can go ? Not really sure what is going to happen, but we are thinking it has set us back alot!

So we thought we were nearly done We had our medicals on the 3/10 and were hoping it was the final hurdle for our 189 visa. ( we began this process in sept 2012) We had our sights set on being there just before or just after xmas for our girls to start school in the new term.... I dont think this will be the case now. Our one year old sons medicals cant be completed! They have referred him to a paediatrician. The quickest appointment with the NHS is 11/11 which I know is quick, but if we wanted to all be there by december we needed everything done yesterday :sad: Just wanted a moan really, it feels like we will never get there... With a 16 year old also we are at a cruical time , we need to get there so she can resume education ! She did fantastic in her GCSEs and She has started an A level course she wont finish ... I just dont want to waste her time ... Everything is so long winded ... Anyone else had referals on their medicals ? Our deadline set by the case officer was Friday for all info to be recieved...

Good luck with your move ! From the looks of it, everything has happened at a similar time for us to you.. We got our agent in Oct 2012. It is a long process isn't it ! Will check out life in victoria Thanks

Hi, making that first post on the forum after reading for what seems like forever. We are just waiting for our medicals on Friday and will hopefully be on our way to Melbourne with 189 visa before christmas. We are making the move with three children aged 16, 10 and 1. We have so many questions re schools, suburbs, work and probably a million other things we haven't even thought of yet, but thought the first step was to say hi !! Anyone already made the move to Melbourne that would consider taking us under their wing Anyone with similar aged children that can offer any advise on moving with children? Hope to get to know some of you soon Gemma x
