New administrative arrangements to meet the health requirement when you make your onshore GSM application – 22 March 2010<br />
Applicants for an onshore General Skilled Migration (GSM) visa must show evidence at the time they make their application, that they have made arrangements to undergo a medical examination.<br />
<br />
From 22 March 2010, applicants for an onshore GSM visa need only obtain a booking reference number from Medibank Health Solutions in order to meet the time of application health requirement. Applicants should phone Medibank Health Solutions and state that they are applying for a GSM visa and request a booking reference number. This booking reference number must then be provided as evidence as part of their GSM application.<br />
<br />
Applicants will be requested to undertake a medical examination by their case officer at a later date. <br />
<br />
Applicants who have already applied for GSM and have either made a booking for a medical examination or undertaken their medical examination, do not need to obtain a booking reference number.
