Ok so I need to get my meds booked for the family and it looks like Brentwood in Essex is my nearest one. Anybody on here had their meds done there, and if so any feedback good or bad? Also does anyone know how much it costs? We are 2 adults and 2 kids.

Hi guys can anybody give me an answer on the above? Much appreciated.... :biggrin:

hi mattster155,

As we are based in stoke on trent we will not be using the clinic you are for meds however being based quite centrally, we have got t6he option of either manchester or birmingham clinics (they dont do it in stoke) we havent booked anything yet but have had a phone around for the prices ( it varies a little bit depending on the clinic - some have 'special offers' on like kids under 10 go free and off the top of my head the quotes were between 600.00 / 700.00 GBP (we are a family of four) so not a cheap day out. oh and if any of you have any piercings (other than earlobes) or tattoos they add a bit more on.

One of the many hurdles we have to jump for a new life down under!

Sorry i dont know anything about your particular clinic but i hope that gives you an idea of price. - we were really lacsidasical and only found out the cost of meds recently! ouch!

 

that price was for all of us btw - NOT each! lol!

Hi everyone, we are in Sydney at the moment in our reccie trip.

Our case officer contacted the agent today asking if we could go offshore to NZ for our visa to be issued!

Very exciting, but we will wait as we are coming back to the Uk in a few weeks and then planning to move permanently in July anyway. Hope you are all doing great and congrats to everyone.

Congrats to today's grants!!!

 

Just wanted to ask, those who were requested to submit meds - how long did it take from your medical to getting your visa?

 

Do the clinic post your forms, or upload them? Just wondering as its our last outstanding item (meds on Thursday!) and I'm itching to book plane tickets!!

Sorry, I'm trying to not be pedantic, but we seem to have lost the line between Oct and Nov in the google doc. I was very confused when I saw the huge amount of Oct applicants this morning, but luckily it's for two months.:wubclub:

 

All fixed ERIKinSA.
