Just wondering if anyone in the uk managed to get their medical done in covid times or whether all clinics are shut..there are a couple l've not been able to contact..also has anyone's 491 application changed from received? I presume this means they haven't looked at it yet? Does it flag up automatically when medicals have been completed for the case officer to then review the info? Sorry..loads of questions!

As title says..anyone had a grant yet especially for nurses or midwives?

I can't comment on which is easier but I can say I did both and I passed the PTE so draw from that what you will
By passed I mean reached the superior score level for max points
The opposite for me! Have a look and see what will suit you..pte is all computer marked, ielts you actually sit a proper test..my pte came back as 0 as the mic didn't pick up! So that was a waste of money.

Thank you.
I have since found out that I will need to visit Australia to obtain my pin so I have decided to ask APHRA if they can put my application on hold for now, as that is not an option for me in the next 3 months.
I have decided to go ahead with the ANMAC skills assessment, but my migration case worker seems quite clueless about the next steps (I'm applying for a refund and to cancel). Do you know what assessment I will need to do without APHRA? The visa I am applying for is the 190. There are 3 different exams to do and I am unsure if it's the academic or general one I need to book in for (Looking at Septemeber to do this as long as everything is ok with the current situation).
If you're talking about the ielts it will be the academic one

Has anyone had an issue obtaining specialist medical reports? My husband's consultant is refusing saying that we can get info from gp..but this isn't the info we need! So frustrating, I know everyone is busy but its just a blanket no we are getting.

Then get proof you cannot do it, say by contacting one of the clinics approved to do them and getting a written response. Send that to immi with an explanation. When did you apply for the visa?

No Co, just an automated message, but lockdown has been in place since I applied so no way I could do the medicals!
-
Has anyone been able to let the immi know that they r unable to take the health checks yet due to lockdown restrictions? How do we do this?
-
Has anyone else had to delay their medical due to the current isolation in the UK?

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has a rough estimate of the timeline to get an invite from home affairs after you've submitted all the documents to BSMQ (Queensland state governing body)?
I luckily received an invite from the state body last week, submitted all documents today. Do you know how long it takes for BSMQ to approve?
Thanks!
Occupation: Finance manager and onshore. EOI was submitted early January 2020. 80 points.
Mine took a day!

Hello everyone, i need help regarding professional references for anmac. If anyone can send me their references or can give me any idea that would be awesome thanks
There was a template on the anmac website..why do u want to look at others? There are so many variations to different peoples roles..it needs to be specific to your role.

I'm guessing that visa holders on provisional visas such as 491 and temporary visas will not be allowed in until after the blockade is lifted?

Phew, that's a better looking profile! Good that you've spoken with an agent about the possible ramifications though!
Yes..definately worth it! The cost is small compared with everything else we've paid on and it was an agent that frequents on here too.
