Default Medicals referred

HI. My husband and I have applied for an SIR visa, and looking at our
online application tonight, I see that our medicals have been received.
My husband and daughters have been finalised, and my sons and mine have
been referred. He was born with a cataract and had a lens implant at 7
months, and I had TB 17 years ago when i was 18. Does anyone know how
long it will take until we get a decision on the medicals? Reading up
on previous posts, some people say 3 to 6 weeks and some say 24 -36
hours. I'm sure the doctor said he was sending them straight to Sydney?
Any clues anyone?

HI K & M,

My mother had TB in her early 20's (she is now 70+). After her medical
was processed she was requested to get a consultant report carried out.

The panel doctor referred her to a consultant at the local private
hospital where she had a chat, a quick examination and was out the door
15 minutes later minus �£140............

If you have any other questions,feel free to ask.

Cheers
Jane
