Hi senior member,

I am so upset

Lisa asked us to provide the documents on 23rd April which already were uploaded but we uploaded again. Last Monday, my agent shared the feedback through immi account but still nothing.

Should I email on skilled.support@homeaffairs.gov.au OR gsm.allocated@homeaffairs.gov.au mentioning I lodged the application 7feb2019 and still waiting?

Anyone else contacted by Lisa in late April and still waiting. I know bodyfam got his PR and he was contacted by her the same day she contacted us.

 

Hi I was contacted on 21st April by Lisa. I applied on 22nd December 2018, got my grant yesterday, just wait few days you will get it soon.

Medical practitioner could be any one working in the medical field so a GP definitely is a medical practitioner.

After you get your PR:

Regarding medicare - you do not need to go the office; you will automatically get a letter from medicare stating that they have received update that you are PR now and you will get new medicare card soon.

Regarding Centerlink - you will have to go to the office to get your CRN generated and after that you can fill in the details online.

All the best!!

To get medicare you dont have to wait till 887 grant. Once u applied 887 you are eligible to recieve medicare. You can download and fill the form and handover to medicare service office or POST with required documents

I think they have started using Artificial Intelligent technology where the program can tell which documents are needed but not submitted. Also, the reason behind it is, the department is accepting to process all the application in 6-7 months times. Just my assumptions.
