You may need to change the text according to your requirements. I got this from a post by some member of this forum. Did not use it myself, though.

Forward from Telegram:- They are accessing applications before September 

It is a good news and they are moving very fast...

There are only 329 applicants by August 2019, so I am sure they will be all within a few days. 

September and October applicants are a bit more 505, 512 respectively, but it will be cleared shortly too. So, I think we could see the visa grant among the 2020 applicants in a few months time as long as this speed is ongoing.

Border closure brings unexpected gift for 887 visa holders..

I do not know for sure but you might ask from the JP what criteria  he/she would like to see met before signing.

Hi Everyone

I am currently holding a 489 visa, on the pathway to 887. 

Just got diagnosed as diabetes in the past week, It under control with oral medication, without any complications,  now I am really worried I won't meet the health requirement.

if cause Australia health system more than 49,000 dollars in 5 years or 10 years or for the rest of my life?  I am not sure how it works.

Has anyone here got similar experiences? will home affair ask you do health examination again? or you have to declare yourself?

appreciate any replies,

thanks

Half the time they never ask for medical since you did at the time of 489 application. Unless your circumstances change for example if you get a baby, I've seen some people requested to fo medical again after baby's birth. For the moment keep it under the carpet.

Don’t worry about it. Worrying makes diabetes worse. They don’t reject someone on something so small so relax.

@Rupom What information did you put on the statutory declaration. As in how did you fill it and where did you get it witnessed. Did you take the baby to the JP?

You just download the stat dec and write down that you will provide the passport once you get it. Then take it to the pharmacy and sign it by the pharmacist.

Thanks for the replies, do you need to declare medical again when you apply for 887? or they are cool with the old one?

I am anxious when I go GP get a prescription for my medicine the health record will show so, or it's confidential even for the government? 

It really sucks, when the first-day travel ban was issued, I just arrived in  Melbourne airport and get deported because the immigration says 489 is not PR, but interestingly, my friend on the next flight who holding a student visa get in.

considering the COVD-19 still going, not sure when could get back to Australia, really frustrating even thinking about to find a full-time job nowadays.

So sorry to hear your predicaments. You could apply for exemptions. With regards to 887, you are not required to fill any medical forms unless you're requested to do medicals. So worry not, right now apply for exemptions and if the reject, apply again. There is power in persistence
