NickiB Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 'This is inform you that I have just received your medical results and they were clear. At this time, there is nothing further required for the application. Our current processing time is 5-6 months from the lodgement date (29 March 2011) so the application will be finalised anytime between 29 August to 29 September 2011.

Guest Jen257 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Hi all. Our non migrating sons medical was referred to HOC on 7 June 2010, and our case officer is still waiting for a reply from them (now 23 June). Can anyone explain why this is taking so long? I understand they might have a backlog, and is there any way of finding out what this is? How do I contact HOC? Am getting frustrated. Jen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I am applying for a spouse visa which has processing times of 5-6 months, the 475 visas do not work to the same time frame. I am not sure of the application process for a 475 visa so I couldn't even guess how long it's likely to take for your application to be finalised.

Hallfamily Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 HiMy sons were referred to oz but then changed a couple of days later to finalised. I was worried because we had together some depots done about his learning difficulties, our agent said that this happens a lot and not to worry. He said they would soon e-mail us if they had any concerns so try not to loose too much sleep over it. Jules You mention you son has learning difficulties and you got through your medicals. We are hoping to apply for our visas this year, and I have seached through this forum lots of times looking at other peoples posts regarding children with special needs ie. (Autism). Lots of people have said it would be a difficult journey, as alot of have been refused if they have children with autism, but I've also read that some get their medicals finalised and have been lucky. Can you please give us some advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are under the impression from the panel doctor that there shouldn't be any problems. Not only have they had the medical since 7 June, I'm now worrying they are gonna turn us down. I wish we had put him on the form now and done it all online. It would have been instantaneous. I was hoping they just had a backlog. Jen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine was referred on 31th may and still waiting for a reply. do U have an idea of current processing dates or is there any method of influencing the HOC to speedup the process.

Guest Igoriusus Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Josephj, unfortunately I do not know process dates. For my grant letter I only needed a medicine finalisation, and today I received a grant letter so this mean that my medicine was finalised today (because I checked at Friday and it was still reffered).
