Guest Kathy&Niall Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Hi everyone, We sent our x-rays off on the 5th Feb by "signed for airmail". The Royal Mail website will only track until they enter Aus. We are checking every day on the immi website to see whether they have marked our status to "received medicals" and still nothing. Has anyone had a similar experience and do you know roughly how long it may take from this point to get the go ahead. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chrissy63 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Hi Kathy Check out our timeline. I know exactly what its like i would check several times a day even though i knew it would be the middle of the night in oz. Good luck don't think it will be long now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalky4388 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 [Your Feedback hi Kathy Follow this link and enter your details, such as tracking number, postal date etc and South Auatralian Post office will e-mail back when it was delivered. I used this when tracking my application and they e-mailed me back the time & date it was signed for. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hearty Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 hi..i need some advice. hubby is applying for 457 visa online with me as secondary applicant. soon we will be required to do medical and x-ray. I'm almost 2 months pregnant now, can I go ahead with the x-ray? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest colin&miche Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 oh my , i wouldn't advise it as the baby is still forming and they do say not to , i must say however i had x-rays, catscans etc when i was 5 weeks preg but it was not known at the time and i was told after as i was really worried as i had theses done whilst preg that it would have harmed my baby , but was told the risks were very small it is just a precaution they take when you are preg, my daughter was born fine by the way , so i would say no but the desicion is yours, also i dont know if they will actually do it if they know you are preg or not kind regards michell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
