Kozzae, I don't know what to tell you about getting your meds, pccs done unrequested. Only reason we did them unrequested (6 months after our application was lodged) was because our agents told us to do them. Two weeks later they were requested so agents must have known the average timeline. Don't forget that once you do the pcc's and meds they are valid for 1 year and you will have to make your entry into Australia before that dead line.
Good luck with your application
