No Butt, nobody is obliged to join a WhatsApp action group, it should be voluntary. This forum is for prospective and current 887 applicants to gather and share info regarding the process. The current long wait times are frustrating and the department's performance is concerning, but certainly not a crime. I am sure many are happy to support a complaint to the ombudsman. Legal action should however be out of the question, in my opinion, it will take longer than you will wait for your grant.

Hi everyone, 

I'm about to apply for 887 the next month.... I'm confused by one thing -  a few tens of pages ago you were telling that Medical is not required for 887, just for new born children (born while holding 489), and just a few pages ago someone said that they requested Medical for the children (as I've understood, older children, already examined when applied for 489).

Could someone please explain the Medical thing properly? 

And the other thing, does dependant needs to take the English exam again, if passed while taking for 489 application? 

Thanks and good luck to everyone!

Hello dear,

Medical only required for the newborn baby. Kids who already gone through medical during 489 are ok. No medical required for them

I think if dependant already provide English exam test during 489 , than its not required during 887

Secondary applicants must do the English test again, or prove functional English even though this was done for a 489

[887]

All right, I'm not worried much about IELTS since the secondary applicant achieved much higher grades than myself as primary one... Just don't wanna take the children through the Medical again, which is stressful for them and not cheap as well...

887 or should be Automatic from 489 visa. Once you fulfill the condition you should get automatic Permenant residence 887 instead it takes over 15 to 16 months.

Anyone over 15-16m please call them to complain. No progress. Dead end now..

I used the word morally. It's an additional platform where we can get to know the details. No worries if you don't want . I al ways try to use the words sensibly and I never used the word crime or something similar.
Best of luck to you.

Hi Guys, 

I am a silent follower of this forum. I have submitted my 887 since DECEMBER 2018 and they have opened my application TODAY (after less than 4 months). Not sure if I should be happy or worry as they require further information for my Spouse while I have front loaded all documents.
