Tazzamaraz Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Hi, Does everyone applying for a 457 visa need to have a medical? I'm just waiting to find out if I have a job that I telephone interviewed for on Tuesday and I'm thinking about what I could start getting on with while they get the job nominated. I've seen posts where people talk about having their visa application fully front loaded with police checks and medicals. The job that I am going for is as a Property Manager in Community Housing so would come under 41711 Community Worker and the job is in regional NSW. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greggers68 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Not everyone requires a medical on a 457. If you were working in medicine or with children then you would have defo required one. You may need a chest X-Ray depends on if you have worked abroad before, middle east or Africa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
