Hey All,
I lodged my 189 independent on shore 1/10/2014 with all documents and medicals uploaded at that time.
No CO allocated as of yet. Does anyone know the rough times for CO's to be allocated?
189 lodged 1/10/2014
My application took exactly 2 months and it went straight to Granted. I lodged on 30 August and got my visa on 30 October.

Yes, we all get that message after lodging the visa application. Nothing to worry.

Got our visa today!!! Lodged on 30 August, have been fighting for this visa from 2007. We were the unfortunate applicants pre-September 2007. Now we can rest. Hope you get yours soon.

What course is your wife intending to do? If your wife is going to study a master at Uni you will be able to work unlimited hours.

Yes but the purpose of listing them is for them to get the visa too no matter if they are going to travel or not with the main applicant.

He would need to check if his son was included in the visa application.
I thought that you had to put your dependants in the application for student visa. I remember I read it somewhere that you can't exclude dependants in the applications.

Thanks again for the information.
I have another inquiry, although this one is not my case, but a friend of mine.
He is also an international student. He has a minor son but is left on his country. Now, he wants to apply for a visa for his son so that the son could visit him here - just to visit (son on school holiday), with no purpose of studying here.
What kind of visa would he apply for? What type of visa will be granted to the son?
AFAIK they don't need to apply to any visa. If he is an international student, his son should have been included in the application so he can come to Australia as a dependant of his father in the same visa.

I don't think they are going to cancel your student visa without asking you for an interview. I have been in Australia with my wife for 7 years as International students. One thing I have learnt along the years extending visas is that when money is involved, immigration will try to sort everything so you can continue your studies provided that you have not done anything illegal.
-
But I thought college girl said if your student visa gets cancelled you have 28 days to leave or apply for another visa?
What she said was that if you get your student visa cancelled, you won't be able to get Bridging visa. You will have 28 days to leave the country.

Lodged on 30 August. I'm here as an International Student and my visa expires on 30 September. I got an email from them where it states that we got Bridging Visa and it won't be active until my student visa expires. Will let you know if it would be any quicker for being here in Australia or not.
-
You don't get bridging visa because you cancel your current visa. Bridging via is granted when you apply for another visa and the conditions of your current student visa allows you to get bridging visa. It has a legal term I don't remember right now, something like a substanctive visa. Read here: https://www.immi.gov.au/visas/bridging/

OSHC should start the date you plan to be in Australia. https://www.immi.gov.au/students/health-insurance.htm

AFAIK you never had bridging visa as your 457 was still active. Bridging visa gets place as soon as your current visa expires.
