Hi everyone, 

I lodged 887 visa 2 days ago and today I had email from immigration asking about my wife’s afp in next 28 days. 
Does it mean my file is currently being processed as I lodged it 2 days ago. 

Regards
 

Hi Zeeshan - If you don’t mind me asking, can you please share with me in what form the request was made by department? Was it a proper request of additional documents or just a reminder kind of thing? Thanks!

It happened with me in case of 489 file. Contacted within 4 days, but took normal time to process. No demotivations . Rest you might be lucky.

Congratulations Mate.

Did you submit Superannuation statement initially with your application?

Also, did you only provide Academic Transcripts for English proof when CO requested?

Thanks

I think it is only valid  for 3 years if it 6 each. if it is 4.5 then its one year. I am not 100% sure but just check with an agent or somone.

That’s what I think so. What is the different between secondary and primary applicants, English language is the same, functional level valid within 12 months but higher level valid for 3 years as stated on immi website.

The IELTS result for secondary applicant has to be taken within 12 months prior to the 887 lodgement. You submitted the application on 8/04/2019 then the IELTS in 2016 would definitely be expired. 

May I know where it is stated English test needs to be taken 12 months prior to application 887 visa for secondary? Thanks.

Thanks, I have seen that. But how if one provides higher than functional English score, in that case it would be valid for 3 years. Well the argument is about providing functional English evidence so it means if one provides higher level, it is still considered functional level? 
how about COs were asking some main applicants to provide functional Evidence only after their previous result after three years were expired. I just can’t digest this one. Please light me me on..

Did you only submitted Academic Transcript A_D for Functional English? or uploaded either PTE or IELTS latest test results?

 

3) Asking English ability for main and secondary both .  I have had uploaded functional English for both of us . ( All academic Transcripts )

Everyone makes mistakes some correct them some d ont realise until co ask for clarification, i found 2 missing info and 2 incorrect answers so far in my form 80 and spouses form all related to employment and unemployment dates, there is an option to update incorrect answers in immi account , i think on left side under update us,  You just have to select the applicants name the incorrect answer relates to, then in details box include form number eg. Form 80 - Question 19 part F etc. , then it asks for what incorrect answers you provided ( copy paste the incorrect answer here or write brief explanation) , next box asks for correct answer so include correct answer , then next one asks why you provided incorrect answers i simply used overlooked missing information or forgot to enter or overlooked the incorrect answer as explanation. follow the procedure from beginning for each incorrect/missing answer  and at the end make sure you press submit. 

Love you @dar8, and thank for bringing the mentality high .. Will certainly do that  . .Cheers !!
