Hi Brains-Trust,

Can anyone recommend a health-insurance policy provider for a Non OA, Retirement Visa renewal?

Many thanks. C

You can't change from OA to O within the country. My advice is stay on OA and get insurance whilst you still can. Once you've got it, it is renewable (certainly in Pacific Cross) up to age 99. There is a possibility the 0 for 50+ will be discontinued in the next two years. Already some immigration offices don't issue it, and others are following, so if you want to avoid getting married, getting a job, getting a degree, having a kid or continual border bouncing and visa runs, just get the insurance and have peace of mind in your golden years
