sunny2012 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I am on 457 visa, applied for my 857 Back in june for which i received the ACK letter and got the Medicare card. My question is since i have got a Medicare card i am eligible for medical cover provided by Medicare. Do i still have to keep my Private Health Insurance Cover to comply 8501 condition on my Subclass 457. During last few days i have been trying to find it out by calling DIAC and email e457 Administration and Private health insurer but unfortunately none of them have been able to provide me correct and significant information. Just wondering someone else is/was in the same condition. Regards, Sunny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blossom Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 It looks like from other threads that they don't actually ask for any proof of insurance other than when you first get the visa...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lebourvellec Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 If you are registeredwith medicare this is sufficient to comply with the 8501 condition on your visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
