Пришла в голову мысль не ждать еще 1,5 года до подачи на PR, а подаваться уже сейчас.
Поговорили с емплоером, он согласен меня спонсировать.

Кто знает, будем ли мы eligible for medicare после подачи на PR, как если бы подавались с 495 на 887-ю?

Заранее спасибо!

Eligibility and enrolment
On this page
Information sheets
How do I enrol?
People who reside in Australia - excluding Norfolk Island - are eligible if they:

hold Australian citizenship
have been issued with a permanent visa
hold New Zealand citizenship
have applied for a permanent visa (excludes an application for a parent visa)—other requirements apply. Contact Medicare for further information.
You will need to provide documents to support your residency in Australia or your severing of ties with the previous country of residence if:

you are an Australian citizen returning to Australia to reside after living overseas for more than five years
you are a New Zealand citizen requesting enrolment as a permanent resident.
In some cases both forms of documentation may be needed.

Norfolk Island does not participate in the Medicare program. Australian citizens who have been living in Australia and move to Norfolk Island will be eligible for Medicare on return visits for up to a period of five years.
