Medicals Before Application

[jimmydaz]

Hi
After doing a bit of research I understand it's a good idea to get medicals done prior to submitting the application (defacto). Can I contact one of the docs on authorised list and get this done before I submit my application?

thanks in advance.

Hey, yeh you can get your medical done before you apply and its a good idea to do this cos it is a requirement and if u submit everything in one go the decision process might be speeded up a bit. When you have your medical you have to fill in a couple of forms and on those it asks if u have applied for the visa yet so i guess you just say no. So yeh, just contact the nearest place on your list that is able to do the medicals!!
Hope to have helped!

Thanks
