Anyone in this group
Whose 489 visa is expired and
Bridging visa A is active
And he has moved to different state/city?

Anyone please answer 

I am thinking to move to metropolitan city. Because my bridging visa does not have any conditions and 489 is expired 

What do you think guys? It should be fine if I move? 

Already called immigration and they said you don't have any conditions...

Cant give you an affirmative answer; but we have historically seen applicants have moved. Eventually your call; having said so i will surely wait for PR and then move. All the best!

A migration agent will be the best person to answer your question as this is something that will effect your case in the future.

Hi,I am also in your list. My 489 is expiring on 17th of May 2020 and I have applied 887 got bridging visa A. I am stuck overseas and unable to go back to Australia. Unfortunately, our BVA will not come into effect as we are overseas and we cannot either apply for BVB overseas. If you get exemption or any more info please let me know. 

I know two persons, they got exemptions.  they told me wrote their compassionate reasons and one of them told that he contacted his local MP.

Morning everyone,

I hope everyone is keeping well, this is a very scary time we all are facing, praying for everyone's wellness.

I need to apply for my son's Indian passport who is born here in Australia so I can add him on our 887 application. 

Currently the VFS office is close and call center is also closed due to the current situation ituation. 

I had created the profile on the Indian passport website and started his application,  It's asking me to put his Aadhar card number before I can proceed further however I have not applied his Aadhar card yet and just wondering if anyone from here can share some knowledge and the information , what do I have to do in this situation to complete online application for indian passport for Minor. 

Can anyone please share some information for the passport application for Minor.

Thanking everyone in and advance for your time and help, it's greatly appreciated. 

 

Adhaar card is not necessary. I applied for my son's passport and renewed my passport in January this year and didn't provide Adhaar card number in any of the application.
