Hi, I got contacted by case officer first time today, he asked further documents. One year payslips which I have already submitted when I applied 887. Also, for 2 years residency proof he asked me to provide( bankstatment, crosspondence and utility bills). @Russki or other senior members please can you tell me What does crosspondence mean here and what documents I have to submit for this? Applied: 04/6/2018.     Contacted: 14/6/2019.  Case officer name: Grant

Hello Everyone,

Applied: 09-05-2018

CO contacted this morning asking my Wife's (Secondary applicant) new AFP with alias name that includes my last name. 

My last name: C

Secondary applicant Passport name (before and after marriage): A B

Now CO request another AFP with alias name A B C .

A B C is nowhere used except marriage certificate and my daughter's birth certificate. 

Already renewed AFP and uploaded 3 months back without giving a second thought  and now CO asking for that.

I have applied for new AFP with alias name this morning.

Question: By any chance is there any possibility to get AFP soft copy via email ???  By post i think it takes at least 5-7 working days after assessment done??? 

 

Who is your CO?

Hi guys, can you guys please advise me on this matter. I am posting this second time. Nobody suggested anything

 I and my defecto partner were granted 489 visa together so I only moved to regional 6 months before her and she was still in Sydney and worked in tax job. due to personal relationships issues between us. Then things were sorted and she moved regional with me and I applied for 887 visa after I completed work and residence requirements being a main applicant. Do you guys think the visa officer will ask the question on her being non-compliant

I think all conditions are for primary applicant ( living and working in regional areas) secondary applicants are only required to be in Australia at the time of application and decision.

How do we complain about our case? Any number to contact or email address?

Hi All,

Does anyone know how long does it take CO to review the requested documents submitted by us?

My application status at "Further assessment"

Thanks.

I'm in the same situation as yours applied 29/03/2018. first contact on 15/05/2019 (CO Grant) for more evidence related to my work and living in the regional area. provided everything on 22/05/2017.(My application status says Further assessment) I noticed a couple of people from our group got their grant in about two weeks after submitting requirements.

Who was your CO? Please keep us informed and ill share if I come across anything.

Wish you and everyone here best of Krishna's blessings.

Dear all,

I am sharing my personal experience to all.

I lodged my 887 visa on Dec 2017 and 1^st case officer allocated on end of July 2018. They asked adverse information explanation. Failing to proof the adverse information lead to section PIC 4020 band of 3 years in Australia.

Department checked my social media like LinkedIn, zoominfo profile etc where I have not updated my current job profile and position. According to the social media I was still living and working in the metro area.  Honestly speaking after I move to a regional area, I never bother to update this information. Case officer found this info and asked for the explanation or I will get PIC 4020. So I contacted all these social media platforms and collected data from that. Also I have hired a superman (migration agent) and he submitted a huge submission to the department.

After 10 months 7 May 2019 NEW case officer assigned. This time case office asking that they found 3 names as alias. These names are my Father mother and brother. I have submitted their photo IDs and state declaration to the department. Also I have complained to the department about this silly information. After I lodged my complaint in 2 days I got the PR.

Below are my suggestion to fellow members

1.       Check you facebook, LinkedIn etc profile if you haven’t update your current employment information please do it. Otherwise, you will suffer like my.

2.       Don’t buy or commit to buying any property or land unless until you get PR email. Otherwise, you will suffer huge financial loss.

3.       After lodgement of 887 visa if you travel overseas get an overseas police clearance.

Best of luck all.

Russki I love you so much. You are a real hero

All's well that ends well

Congratulations 

thank you for sharing your experience. Can you please list the names of case officers you gone through in this process
