blood pressure
Wonder if anyone can offer advice
Just as one query is dealt with another arises. On final check before sending off our skilled ind. visa request we've seen the question asking if you have any serious medical conditions. Have just started medication for raised blood pressure and wonder whether this is defined as a condition I need to declare on the application. Want to be honest but don't want to put something down that isn't necessary. I know it'll show up on the medical anyway & am aware that it's not in the same league as TB (especially as I'm only on water tablets!)
Please reassure if possible. The stress is raising my blood pressure!!

I would declare it as it is a medical problem ........although not a serious one.
Having high blood pressure will not stop you getting in to Australia..........but dishonesty could cause a few hic cups for you.
Good luck

I declared having high blood pressure, and passed a medical with flying colours so it aint that serious. As you say it is the stress of everything.
Good luck
