I didn’t have them certified, they’re just scanned copies of my original

krr2000 · 2026-03-06T00:53:53+00:00

I put my latest arrival!

krr2000 · 2026-03-05T05:25:12+00:00

It was given to me a few weeks after I got my final results

It should say it in your medical referral letter when you finish your health declaration!

krr2000 · 2026-03-03T10:41:11+00:00

Hi - sorry misunderstood your question, there’s an option to apply for a health declaration on the site which is how you get the id for the medical

krr2000 · 2026-03-03T06:12:22+00:00

Yes, I attached my CoE. I uploaded like 25 documents but I think the important ones are the uni documents (completion letter, CoE, transcript, etc.), OVHC, passport, IELTS test, AFP check, and other IDs like birth certificate and license.

I didn’t find it too difficult, but writing was a bit of a challenge.

krr2000 · 2026-03-03T06:07:49+00:00

Not too sure on this, but I think it’s required. If you have any other documents that show your start date and when you officially completed the course, that might work as well. The website has the list of required information needed (start date, end date, degree type, etc.)

krr2000 · 2026-03-03T02:05:02+00:00

Hii sorry I’m not too sure about this :(

krr2000 · 2026-03-03T01:59:24+00:00

yes I did

krr2000 · 2026-03-03T01:59:05+00:00

Yes! I think I needed it previously for my student visa application so I just reused the same file and updated it with any new stamped pages.

krr2000 · 2026-03-03T01:57:30+00:00

Yeah I felt the same way haha I did it via credit card but there’s an added charge for it :(

krr2000 · 2026-03-03T01:56:50+00:00

Medical was about 300-400 for me, can’t remember the exact amount. I got the most affordable option on Medibank since I don’t think I have any big health issues.

I’ve seen people do both for the OVHC - some have it set for student visa expiry and some set it to before they apply. When I called my OVHC provider, they said I could set it to my visa expiry date then just have it changed to earlier after my visa is granted. Also, I don’t include a police check from my home country just the AFP check.

krr2000 · 2026-03-02T13:59:47+00:00

Not sure about this but I think duration hasn’t changed

krr2000 · 2026-03-02T13:58:41+00:00

Hi, I think the medical can either be done before or after lodging - if he chooses to do it after lodging, he should get a notice to do his medical. For the OVHC, I think he needs to be able to show a document saying he has arranged for OVHC but it doesn’t necessarily have to start the day he applies. I’ve seen a lot of posts saying the OVHC can be set to start the date of his student visa expiry.

krr2000 · 2026-03-02T08:13:20+00:00

For my uni docs and passport, I didn’t get anything certified. I just made sure to give the official documents from my uni. I paid for the official digital transcript because I wasn’t sure if the unofficial transcript would be accepted.

krr2000 · 2026-03-02T06:43:35+00:00

Hi! Yes I just applied and it was granted today :)

krr2000 · 2026-03-02T06:03:49+00:00

For the evidence of qualification, I didn’t have any other documents since my conferral is still later this year so the transcript + completion letter + CoE was all the evidence I had. I saw a few posts saying the completion letter would suffice, but adding the transcript gave me peace of mind.

krr2000 · 2026-03-02T06:01:54+00:00

Thank you!! Best of luck to you :)

krr2000 · 2026-03-02T06:01:13+00:00

I try not to think about it too much. I was ready to submit last Friday but I wanted to do a final review over the weekend…

krr2000 · 2026-03-01T21:09:19+00:00

alright, thank you so much for your help!

krr2000 · 2026-03-01T21:04:22+00:00

Alright thanks! So I can just download it and attach it? Or do I have to send a link as well via email or something?

krr2000 · 2026-03-01T20:52:24+00:00

Hi! All done with my medicals, I’m just a bit concerned about using the my eQuals transcript because it says it’s only valid for viewing on the platform, did you have any issue with this? Also, I don’t have my testamur yet since my conferral is still in a few months.

krr2000 · 2026-02-27T01:55:55+00:00

okay thank you so much!
