I agree, but imo i'd be better/safer to do both - a stat dec (or a letter from hospital if possible) plus waiting for an additional 3 months at the regional area.

Hi, thank you so much for your advice. 

I did stay longer than 2 year. My visa Granted July 2016. And I applied in Apr 2020. Because i didn't have enough resident proof of first year. And couldn't find a job so we moved to another regional. Therefore to be safe I waited to make it enough 2 year at new region then I applied.

I got a few letter from hospital but didn't mention that It was my option but the only safe way for me. So should I get a Satu dec? And how could I do it?

And how could we generate an HAP ID for my boy? 

Thank you

Hello Senior Members, need an Urgent advice for my sister. 

She applied 28th July 2019 and CO asked for more Employment evidence yesterday. when she applied she had 40 payslips with 35 hours but seems CO is not happy with that.

Now she wants to withdraw that application and wanna reapply cause now she has 52 payslips with 35 hours. But her 489 got expired and on BVA now. 

So, my question is it possible to reapply for 887 when on Bridging Visa A ?? DOHA web's info is confusing.

Any suggestion would be highly appreciating. Thanks

Finally she got the visa this morning around 9.30 !!!! made our day.... After consulting an agent from Migration Solution she has submitted all work related docs along with a cover letter explained the situation she went through. Not sure it has worked, but well, golden mail arrived....
Thanks everyone for your support.

CO Sophorn

cheers

Hi..while applying for Medicare Entitlement statement..can we send colour copies of passport , current visa and evidence showing we have applied for PR or does all the copies needs to be certified by people like legal practitioners and police officers?

I applied my Medicare via email due to Covid19. They didn't accept you at their counter. However i send all the copy in color and didn't certify any of it. 

Hope it would help.

I highly doubt that. Only because, should the processing times be officially changed to 7-9 months it would imply all cases be finalized within the processing times and given the fact that there are applicants from May 2019 waiting for grants the department would not want to find themselves  in a pickle.

[Sonu550]

True that ! But if they keep finalising the application at this speed as we already seen some people who applied on 26 December 2019 already got grants this month. For sure they gonna clear all backloads for few months then they might start 2020 applications as i heard they hired more case officers too . Lets hope for the Best lol 

 

i got few questions if anyone can help me .

 

I applied my 489 visa offshore in 2018 but in 2013 i had onshore visa refused in Australia so will it impact my 887 ??

Hi Everyone,

I'm going to apply for my 887 visa soon, but before that I have few question  to clarify. if someone who expert can answer me. that would be a great help.

1. I need to know, do we need to submit a fresh overseas police certificate when we applying for 887 or is it enough to attach what we uploaded during the 489 lodging? (if you are in a new passport now)

2. For residential proof, if you lived in a shared accommodation is it enough to attach statutory declared form from the landlord along with some mobile phone bills and car registration certificates?  

3. For employment proof, is it enough to attach payslips, employer letter and if possible any super contribution statement?

4. Apart from functional English proof, are there any documents which we need to attach? eg. forms etc. 

 

Thank you,

Hi everyone,

I have a question on IMMI account. I can see the file name of all the documents my agent attached on IMMI account. However, is there a way of viewing the document to see if agent has uploaded correct document.

Thanks so much

I think there is no way of viewing it or deleting it once it is attached .

Thanks for your response.

Oh thats bad. Unfortunately my agent is not very dependable. Hence I worry he will not upload the correct document. I will ask him to send me the document he uploaded so I can be sure.

[Sonu550]

Yeah or if you still worried then you can appoint yourself anytime for further application process , so case officer can directly contact you instead of contacting your agent .
