Hi Guys
We just got our direct grant.
Applied on 3rd May 2017
Direct grant on 9th May 2017
Background: My partner was the primary applicant. We submitted all possible documents at the outset.
This included work contracts, payslips, and bank statements for both of us as we had both fulfilled the employment conditions.
In addition we also submitted lease agreements and utility bills. When we first moved to Aus we were living with our family and supported the residence requirements with a statutory declaration and car registration.
No medicals were requested for both.
No ielts scores were requested for the secondary applicant as we submitted university transcripts to prove that 5 years of secondary education was completed in English.
Pcc for both India and Australia were provided as we went overseas for a holiday for a little over 4 weeks.
Wishing you all the best and thank you for your advice.
