My little daughter was born on April 11. We’ve got her birth certificate already and are applying for her passport tomorrow. As March 9 applicants, we haven’t been contacted by co yet... Maybe COs have got the information already. 

I am going to inform them once we get the passport which will take around one week. I didn’t tell the immi department the minute my little daughter was born because my eldest daughter is still in China and cannot come right away, so I know there is no possibility to get pr directly then I have some buffer time.

Yes, they come to know from medicare i think, i applied 25.02.2018 and we expecting baby in couple of weeks still not contacted by immigration.

Anyone in group have waiting for baby and not granted visa ?

i thought they fetch data from Medicare and hold your file until you have baby born.

Can someone please confirm if that happens with anyone ?

thanks

I called immigration today morning.

they asked me details and says please wait as you are still under processing time

Also submitted complaint last night.

applied 25.02.2018

Wondering why me not contacted yet ?

Applied 25.02.2018

any guess ?

Who else is checking their immi account every 10 mins ?

So if I submitted while applying 489 which was new at that time, that will be acceptable till now.?????

 

No, it’s not 1 year old when you apply 887.

you have to provide new one as in most of cases people spend around 3 years between 489 application to 887 application.

if you provide 6 each result to prove your function level during 489 visa then you can use the same result during 887 visa if it was not older than 3 years from the date of 887 application.

Thanks for answering me.

Please can you show me the link to confirm your assertion about 12 months IELTS validity for dependents. I appreciate. 

https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-support/meeting-our-requirements/english-language/functional-english

If you read the screen shot shared above the additional document requested for English requirements.

it is clearly written that

1. functional level English need to prove for all secondary applicant who aged more than 18 years.

2. validity of score is one year. i.e it should not be older than one year at the time of application. if you prove this score with 6 each in case of IELTS(Component level) than validity of this score is 3 years.( i.e you can attach 3 year OLD result if your result is 6 each)

3. once you submit the result which is not 1 year old at the time of application, No need to resubmit/rewrite the test it even though its one year old when CO allocated.

Hope that's clear the doubt.

Do I have to prove my wife's English if I paid VAC2 when I was applying for 489?

No need to prove as you already paid VAC2 during 489

cheers

Go to immi account and click on"update details" then go to change of passport details.

select the applicant from the list, this allows you to enter new passport details and later you have to attach the passport copies in the form.

once you finish this, it will automatically attached your form and passport copies tor attachment list in your application. no need to attach it separately in file.

you can also get the acknowledgement message in message section.

same way you can add new passport details in your current visa(i.e 489) and your VEVO will updated within 24 hrs. and you can check your VEVO after that.

No need to call them. just do it online.

i did mine 2 weeks back.

Hi guys, my case has been opened today, CO Sophorn is requesting a new AFP for main applicant to have alias name included in. This is very strange to me, because not a single document I submitted in showing this alias name of mine. I only use this name at work, just for in case of people having trouble to prounce my legal name right. Apparently CO somehow did a very good research and discovered I have been using this alias name. Ok then, I will be doing my 3rd AFP tonight, hope this is the last time I’m doing it.

my timeline:

887 submitted on: 16/02/2018

02/2019: I updated AFP for both main applicant and secondary applicant when the old ones got expired

08/04/2019: first contact by CO requesting AFP with alias name

CO: Sophorn

 

CO Come to know that you have been known to different name by two ways..

1. any document you submitted in file that have different name from your passport( i.e birth certificate, driving license etc)

2. You inform them by answering question no. 4 in from 80.

Hello Seniors,

My Son was enrolled  in public school through Temporary resident program in NSW and as a 489 holder we need not pay any tuition fees in school.

but my 489 visa expire soon (applied 887 on 25/02/2018).

i am worried as a bridging visa holder we need to pay tuition fees in school.

in enrollment letter they clearly written that we shd inform them any change in visa subclass including bridging visa.

anyone come across similar situation in NSW public school ?

Thanks in advance.

Hey guys,
really happy for those who’ve got their grant and hoping for best for those waiting.
Ive been a silient observer of this forum for a while. I got my visa 489 in feb last year from orana NSW. I moved to a regional town of Victoria (SEBASTOPOL 3356) in October last year and have been working full time aswell.
I know this has been asked again and again but will their be any problem once I complete my 2 years here and apply for 887. It’s  just something I’m worried about these days like living in regional and still not being eligible for 887.
also can i apply for visa 189 while on 489?
please if someone could clarify this issue for me.
thanks in advance[emoji4]

Can you please let us know ur application status.Looks like thy skipped feb & mar

I think, there is no need to inform immigration about your overseas holiday during processing of 887. you can visit overseas when your 489 is valid.

it is unnecessary and if you inform them, they may be put your file on hold.

below information is from department's website.

Hello Friends...

if you people have noticed that the processing time 12-15 months posted is for the month ending 30 sep 2018.

what i feel is the processing time during aug/sep is 12-15 month as there were only one CO (ADAM) working on files. now we have three COs ( Adam, peter, kimberly ) hence next time when they will update the processing time, it will be less than 12-15 month. similar to last year when we had 3 Cos ( adam, dat , sorphen)

so cheers and be happy

As Mr.887 2019 says " my calculation could be wrong but i dont think   "

Guys, This is our petition. Unfortunately, I had to put definite numbers in the title (7 months max processing), because this was one of the rules.

This time they want the certified copies of everything. But still don’t understand why he wants police clearance of my 4 year old daughter. Which I think not even possible.

Hi, Karan

This is what happened with me during 489 visa, they asked IELTS and PCC for my son and other things for my wife, when i closely looked up the letter, the requirement documents were swapped over with my wife and son. later i emailed them(DIBP) and advised that the documents probably  swapped over between candidates and then they accepted their mistake(Earlier they reply to your mail if you wrote for genuine reason)  and send me corrected letter for additional documents. request you to carefully read the additional document list and submit exactly what they want to process your file straight away.
