    Nothing at my GP - I had to have an appointment anyway to discuss a range of things (getting all my health things sorted before moving!) so I paid the usually doc fee with half back on medicare, there's onsite pathology and that was free, and she bulk billed my follow up!

    T The reason I got a blood test first was that I didn't want to get or pay for unnecessary vaccinations at the medical if I'm already immune I believe it you don't have history or blood work saying you're immune they'll make you get them ..

    Ask your GP to do a blood test for your immunity to the vaccinations that are required for the medical.

    Essey - surely it has to be prioritized by case number not form submission date ? Ie you should get an interview before a 600 number for example.(as long as forms have been processed) I think our forms have finally been processed too as we got the below email in reply to an enquiry rather than...

    http://canberra.usembassy.gov/holidays.html The embassy website says they only close for the public holidays... Xmas Day, Boxing Day, New Years Day. Still, fingers crossed we don't have to go just before or after Christmas - flights will be horridly priced!

    I've just had a thought about our ds260 forms.. We were married after selection so filled in a form each but haven't provided our marriage certificate as there was nowhere to attach it/it didn't specify in the instructions. Did we need to email this to KCC or just take it to interview ? When I...

    Australian wanting to immigrate to the USA

    Depending on how long ago you graduated from your Diploma you may be able to get the J-1 working visa? http://www.iep.org.au/workusa/eligibility That only gives you 12 months but better than nothing and fingers crossed for DV2016!
