    Medical Treatment Visa Requirements

    Before diving straight into the application process, it’s crucial to first comprehend the eligibility criteria. Here’s what you’ll need:

    • Proof of your medical treatment plan or consultations in Australia.
    • Evidence of financial stability to cover your medical and living expenses.
    • If applicable, a letter from a medical practitioner supporting your need for treatment.
    • Your health issue must not be a threat to public health safety
    • You must not be holding a subclass 403 visa under Domestic Worker stream, which should not also be the last valid visa you’ve had.
    • You must be of good character and intend to stay temporarily in Australia as a genuine visitor, unless you are in Australia and unfit to depart the country due to health grounds.
    • Usually, you will be asked to provide a written proof from a hospital about pre-arranging payments for your own treatment costs.

    Medical Treatment Visa Application

    Applying for a Medical Treatment Visa involves several detailed steps:

    1

    Preparation

    Before applying, it pays to be fully prepared. You can either arrange for a health examination or wait for the Department to ask you. You can also do this after your application. Note that this is in addition to the medical treatment documents you need to provide.

    2

    Gather Documentation

    It’s time to compile all necessary medical records outlining your health condition, treatment needed, potential costs and timeframe, together with financial evidence, and other supporting documents to substantiate your visa application, including identity documents and photographs.

    3

    Application Submission

    Once you’ve gathered all your documents, you can now apply online using your ImmiAccount. Complete the subclass 602 medical treatment visa form, attach all required documentation, and pay for the visa fees.

    4

    Wait for Visa Decision

    After lodging your application, the Department will notify you if they received it. If you didn’t arrange a health exam before applying, you may be required to undergo one. You must be in Australia if you lodged your application here, or be outside Australia if you applied offshore.
