Default Meds question

Hi all,

I know meds questions are covered loads but can anyone whose done their form filling tell me this:

1. Do you need to put on the meds form that your children have been immunised?

I haven't filled in the form yet, but I'm not sure about this as I don't see immunisation as treatment. However, some guidance would certainly be appreciated!

Thanks

Hi Sandra,

Thanx for the reply but it doesn't ask you that on the form?

I mean the nearest question is very vague it asks 'have you ever had any medical, physical, psychological or other treatment in the last 5 years.'

Should I put immunisation under this question or not? I don't see it as treatment, but then again I don't want to get it wrong either.

Cheers

Dont know the answer but to be safe I would put it in.

For me personally I would prefer the case officer thought I was silly for mentioning something I didnt need to rather than refuse my application because I didnt give all the info I should have.

Just a pointer - don't forget to have their red books updated with all of their immunisations. You'll need to take this to Oz. Good luck :-)

You have to take a list of the immunisations to the medical. We just got the GP to print it out. I don't know if they send it to Adelaide. We were worried because we did'nt let them have MMR but should'nt have. Sorry, teas going cold, husband shouting. Bye, muzzwoman
