Am I correct in reading on the Australian embassy website in Canberra that they will process a METV for non-australian's? It states you need a medical certificate. What kind would this be? The money is not a problem. Just trying to avoid going back to the US at all costs.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The conversation revolves around the query of whether non-Australian citizens can apply for a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV) through the Australian embassy in Canberra and the specific requirements, such as needing a medical certificate. Various comments clarify that US passport holders can apply for the METV in Australia and mention the necessity of proof of visa status. There are also discussions about postal services for application submissions and general travel logistics.

The Melbourne Consulate says: " proof of Australian Electronic Visa (VEVO) or Visa Grant Letter is

required."

That's just the Aussie visa?
