Health Problem — Forest Lake QLD — yourvisa4australia

Have you received a letter advising you have a health problem? Your visa may be refused?

A waiver of meeting the health requirement (a health waiver) can be obtained for applicants of many visas. The visa health waiver means you can get the visa granted even if you have a significant health condition picked up in the medical check.

A visa health waiver properly done can help you get the visa when the Department may have decided there may be high costs or prejudices to access to medical services by Australians. These are referred to as a PIC 4007 health waiver. Without a health waiver your visa will be refused if you do not meet the health check.

Without a health waiver your visa will be refused if you do not meet the health check.

PIC 4007? Public Interest Criteria 4007. A Health Waiver is available if you can meet the criteria.

PIC 4005? A Health Waiver is NOT available. However, there are processes that may be successful if we can find an appropriate approach.

You need the combination of an experienced migration expert and a medical/medical science background.
