It can be a gamble. We did not frontload our meds and police checks. Infact I applied online on May 15/08 for a 176 visa after receiving approval from the WA government for a state skilled visa (we were 5 points shy for a 175 as hubby turned 40 in Feb and he did not want to do the IELTS test for the extra points). I just got an email on Friday May 16/08 acknowledging our visa from the Adelaide Skills Processing Centre (they are the ones who will allocate you a case officer and grant you the visa). Well low and behold, they are the ones who have requested our meds and police checks, along with all supporting documentation. I only have 28 days to get all the info to them, so we have booked our meds and police checks for next week. If ours is anything to go by, it looks like they are moving very swiftly in regards to asking for meds and police checks. Cheers Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
