If it is functional English and you have submitted it for your 489 application it is no longer valid unfortunately given the time that it takes to apply for your 887 was 2 years.

Functional English is only valid for 12 months.

If this is your case, I strongly recommend doing another IELTS test and uploading the results to your 887 application.

 

Hi @Stellajane!

My partner has no qualms taking the IELTS as she speaks better English that I do, it’s the cost we want to save on
I am assuming they require functional English so the partner is able to work and contribute to the economy. You reckon proof of being employed in a position that requires good communication skills will be considered proof of functional English? Your thoughts please..?

I always wanted to write a big grant message but was out of words today. Still can't believe it. I am very thankful to this forum as it was only thing that made me patient otherwise I would have had panic attacks. Also I would have never done my son's medical beforehand without guidance here. May everyone get there grant soon.

Congratulations @Skaur, time to celebrate!!!!

You might need to upload employment contract and also work reference letter from your employer.

Thanks @Qasim Javed, I will request when they open this coming 6/1/20

Just now, 081018 said:

Hi @Skaur, thank you. I think that was the issue. My previous employer paid monthly and there was no hour breakdown of completed hours in the payslip but they indicate an hourly rate. For my current employer, we are paid weekly and there is an hour breakdown so no issue with that. 

Just another query, is the uni letter enough evidence of functional english? If I re-submit, won’t there be issues? 
thanks again

Did you get your pay as hourly on payslips?

Hi @Skaur, thank you. I think that was the issue. My previous employer paid monthly and there was no hour breakdown of completed hours in the payslip but they indicate an hourly rate. For my current employer, we are paid weekly and there is an hour breakdown so no issue with that. 

Good afternoon! Need your input please.

Applied 8/10/18

First Contact: 23/12/19

CO: Kimberley

Further required docs: Further evidence of 1 year employment. Submitted payslips, ATO, PAYG documents, salary bank transaction, super docs from the get-go. Is it possible these were just missed by CO and what else can we add?

For wife’s functional English, letter from university indicating English as medium of instruction,  plus TAFE  English assessment were submitted from the get-go. Does wife need a recent IELTS/TOEFL exam or do we just re-submit the uni letter and TAFE assessment (is that something they consider in the first place)?

3 yr old daughter’s medical. I tried asking for a HAP ID prior to this.

Can someone please update the spreadsheet and give advice on the above?

TIA.. and have a lovely Christmas and New Year

I did that but still waiting for grant after 1st contact.
Do not forget to add cover letter in your application that ur child has undergone medical with this HAP id.

Thank you @GS2604

And if I generate a HAP ID by creating a new application, has anyone tried this and received their grant with no issue?

Congratulations to all those who received their grants!!!

My child was born in Australia Oct 2016, we applied for 887 in Oct 2018. I tried to ask for a HAP ID via feedback and their reply was : “The Department of Home Affairs has received your feedback on 13 October 2019. 

The Feedback Form enables us to respond to clients who provide us with suggestions, compliments and complaints about the service the department provides. As the matter you raise is a request, it is not possible for the Global Feedback Unit to assist you with this matter. 

Any request needs to be raised directly with the processing area.”

May I ask where can I get the GP form so I can have my child assessed and then submit that letter to immi?
