How to Generate HAP ID for Medical

You can generate HAP ID for Australia immigration medical before you submit or lodge your 189 or 190 visa application. You can even get health checks done before getting invited.

    Once you have logged in, click ‘New application’.

  3. Then click the Health -> My Health Declarations option to open a new health declarations wizard.

  1. Accept Terms and conditions and click Next.

  2. Visa details
    Select the visa that you intend to apply.For visa 190, there is no option here. So, you probably cannot generate HAP ID for 190 visa unless you get an invitation.As a matter of fact, your 189 visa medical check up will work for 190 visa too.
    If you expect or have received 189 invitation, choose 189 or any other visa as applicable.

  3. Personal details

  4. Identity• Details of any expired passports that you previously used to travel to Australia,
    • Details of any visa grant numbers for any previous Australian visas, and
    • Details of any visa label numbers for any previous Australian visas.

When you have finished, click on the Next button.This is important to generate HAP ID for each family member.

  7. Travel details
    For each family member that you added in last step, you need to provide their travel history.

    If you select Yes to question about intentions to apply for the permanent stay in Australia within the next 6-12 months, an additional question will display asking whether you wish to have your health assessed for a permanent stay in Australia, that is complete health examinations for a permanent stay level.

    If you applying for 189 or 190 visa, you should select YES.

  8. Health declarations
    These are the same questions that appear in the health section of a visa application.If you answer Yes to any of the questions, an additional window will appear asking you to select which
    person the yes answer applies to, and for you to provide additional information.Note: You need to complete your health declaration questions ‘upfront’ (that is, prior to lodging your visa
    application) in order for Australian immigration to determine which health examinations (if any) you are required to complete.

    Note: When you lodge your visa application you will be asked to complete these questions again in case your answers/circumstances have changed since recording them on your My Health Declarations form.
