Immigration medicals vary depending on tests required, with $200 being the most common doctor fee, and $135 for the required blood tests which we organise for you with Medlab. Two appointments are involved, the first being for 45 minutes and the second for 15 minutes with a doctor. A deposit is required when making the first appointment and the balance for doctors fees and blood tests payable at the first appointment. The process takes around a week to produce a completed immigration medical form on average.
