887 Visa - What's the update?

[vjustme]

Are you looking for this one?

You can post written feedback or complaints to:

Global Feedback Unit

GPO Box 241

Melbourne Vic. 3001

Australia.

 

the link is border.gov.au/about/contact/provide-feedback/compliments-complaints-suggestions/visa-citizenship-service

 

Just a question, do you think it would be worthy to complain after this two years long journey rather than keeping patience?

 

 

Hell yes! If they can't do their job properly, of course I will complain. There were several job opportunities that I could have gone after within the past 8 months, paying at least 40k more of what I am currently earning, yet I am stuck in a regional area cause someone is taking his/her time with my application.

Hi everyone, does anybody know that visa processing time has extended up to 12 months from 6 months? I am not sure about it as I heard it from someone. I checked the Immi web site but I could not find it. Does anybody know about this pls.

Hi vjustme

 

i agree with you.

My husband lost a job oppertunity after all the interviews due to PR.

I am waiting for pr for my new job now.

If i lose this job oppertunity, I will stay in regional area, complain and fight for it.

yes, we are waiting. But they should do their jobs properly.

we have done our parts, living and working. They should do their's as promised.

You are right.We have lived regional for 2 years.Now you have to still live regional for a further 6 months while you wait for PR.Why not allow you to move around like a temp permanent resident.I you don't obtain the PR then be forced to move back.I mean you have satisfied their requirements of 12 months work and 2 years regional.

Thats what the visa says to stay in regional area basically not for 2 years but for whole life..government want to fill these areas and they want to make them more populated so that they can grow like other areas but they don't understand that these areas dont have jobs over there..they should create enough jobs for the people whome they want to migrate..

another thing i want to tell that..if they know that we people travel to other states after PR then might be they will think about this visa..we all are lucky that still the conditions are same for this visa..

Actually it's the other way around. It's due to the fact that we are supposed to be able to move in other central areas after those two years, that we even considered moving in those regional areas in the first place.

Hi Guys,

 

Do we need to provide PCC for the countries which we have already provided during 489?

Hi raja23 we have very similar situation here. I also submitted my payslips and energy bills( selectively, not all of them) . Guess it was not good enough for them. So I decide to summit all 60+ payslips and all the bills I got. But questions is the CO wrote certified copy of payslips??? What's that? Isn't scan copy good enough? And how to certify payslip??? True copy of the original? But I am color scanning the original!! Could you please tell me how did you certify your payslip and bills? Thanks

[Miranda887]

Hello Enlightenme,

 

may I ask when you submitted the application and when CO contacted you for further docs? Thank you!

[raja23]

Hi there,

believe me it's a big headache to ask someone to certify more than 100 pages..

they asked me as well "certified copies" so what I did is that I make photo copies of all original payslips and lease agreement, tax documents and certified from local low court.. I hv been to police station, they said we don't do that much of papers, not even in the council.. But luckily a lady showed interest to do so.. Because the problem is that I was getting weekly pay from one employer and fortnightly from other..

You have to make photo copies of all your original documents and then go to local council, justice of peace or police stations to certify..

Gee! But I guess it is what it is. I will just have to suck it up and do it. I wonder why for someone scanning copy is acceptable and for some other it is not....

just fingers crossed they won't come back and ask for more! Seeing from here they have the tendency to do so nowadays.

I got all my payslips by mail. No idea who is going to certify that as it does not have any hard copy.

Hi guys,

 

Do not panic, it is not required. However it may depend on CO.

 

[5June887]

Does anyone know whether applicants are eligible for Medicare during 887 visa process time, namely on bridging visa?

 

Thanks.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]9905[/ATTACH]

yes this is a statement we all read before submitting any documents. On top of that in the info pack the CO sent, there is a sentence saying that immi accept high quality color scan of the original and if you can only provide black white scan you need to get the black white scan certified. Yet, CO still asked for certified payslips...

Hi

 

I am also getting my payslips in email. In this case, you have to print two sets of your payslips and consider one as a original and one as a photo copy of them.. because where ever you go, they dont understand that we are having original in our email. They wants two sets to certify..

[Manas]

Hi Guys,
