  1. Guys,

     

    Quick question for anyone who has had to upload extra documents after getting a Case Officer.

     

    My agent has forwarded me the details of what DIAC still require from me, its basically my payslips and some tax documents along with the kids birth certificates.

     

    I have uploaded them to the same place as the previous documents, is that the correct thing to do, if so does the case officer get an 'alert' to say I have uploaded new documents or does my agent have to email him/her?

     

    Thanks for any help/advice

    Congrats Bharat, great news!

    I think you may have to tell your agent that you have uploaded the documents so he can tell the CO, I sent my evidence to my agent first and he uploaded it for me.

    I hope this helps

  2. G'day guys,

     

    Long time no post

     

    took me a while to read through everything, BLECH - CONGRATULATIONS.

     

    BPREMJI - was hoping to come on here to see you have a CO at least. I dont think it'll be long for you.

     

    CONGRATULATIONS to all those who im not familiar with who have got COs and/or grants, its an amazing feeling eh

     

    update from me:

    House sold and completed on the 3rd January. We are currently residing at my mums and we have booked our ONE WAY TICKETS for the 20th September 2012. This is giving us time to save for the big move (have you seen the prices of cars in oz - OMG). lol.

     

    For those who are still waiting, never give up hope, it will happen, sooner or later, patience is the name of the game (although I was probably one of the most impatient members on here).

     

    Enough from me. Best of luck everyone

     

    Hello

    Nice to see everything is going well for you!

    We are going to activate our visa in Aug so will just miss your arrival date of 20th Sept. I have just been looking on

    PIA and we have been looking for a rental in the same places!

    Keep in touch and good luck!!

  3. Hi Everyone,

     

     

    I've been in the torture chamber for a long time. I've been waiting for 14 months now. I've got a job offer in Australia. Can start as soon as I've got the visa. But it takes and takes and takes more time.

     

    I got a CO on 2 sept. That one disappeared for some reason.

    Then I got a new CO on 14 oktober. But now after waiting for 4 months still nothing.

     

    My friends and familie are laughing behind my back. They ask me when I'm going to abandon my plans to go to Australia! They ask me: did you do everything right?...did you apply for the right visa?...do you know what you are doing? Well...I feel like an idiot. :mad:

     

    Hello

    Have you used an agent because if you have I would contact them and ask what is happening.

    If not you should send an electronic update request to your CO to ask what is happening, that is a long time to wait for a 175 visa grant as they are issuing visas from April/May applicants of this year at the moment.

  4. Has anyone had their 175 been rejected by DIAC?? Pls share your experiences, if possible..

     

    There was someone on part one of this thread called Dinkydoo who had their visa refused due to lack of work experience.

  5. Im just curious, are there denied 175 applications? Or does anybody here know somebody denied of a 175 visa?

    If you look at some previous pages of this thread 'Dinkydoo' was refused a visa for not meeting the work experience criteria.

    Also just to let you know that we have a part 2 of this thread now as the person who ran it had other things going on and it can't be transferred so we had to start a new one!

  6. Hi All,

     

    I noticed that some guys have already done their medicals and police clearance even before they were assigned Case Officers ? Is that normal and can i decide to go and do that pending the time my case officer is assigned ?

     

    Yes you can do them before if you want too but your visa entry date will be 12 months from the earliest date of either your medical or police check. Also they are only valid for 12 months.

    Or you can just wait for the CO to contact you and then get them. Depends on how quickly you plan on visiting Oz to activate the visa I suppose, everybody is different!! Good luck

  7. Attended the medicals on 31st, and my status has being updated as below;

    03/01/2012 Further medical results referred

    03/01/2012 HIV blood test referred

     

    Not sure why my spouse medical status is "referred". Hope it is nothing to worry about :unsure:. Any idea anyone?

    (Please update the excel too)

     

    @hmsmark: I think it will be around May 20th, due to the holidays..

     

    There's a few people on the old thread -part 1 that this happened too especially if you don't have any obvious medical issues that is. My husband is diabetic so his got referred or tht but then he was cleared in a few days.

    Have a look back at part 1 as I think they just refer some to keep the quotas up!:biggrin:

  8. Good Morning Everyone!!!!!

     

    What a fantastic day it is today - not only is it my first day off work for the Xmas Break (not back til the 4th) and I think we will get the missives on our house sale concluded this week, but woke up this morning to a

     

    DIRECT VISA GRANT (22/12/11)!!!!!!! :chatterbox::chatterbox::chatterbox:

     

    Even though I was hoping it would come through before Xmas, I'm still in shock - good shock might I add!!!

     

    Just as a bit of additional info, e-mail came in from a senior CO from Team 2 and my first entry date is 04 November 2012, which was the date my front loaded meds were finalised. Also, on the 'Electronic Application Status Page' my application still says 'processing commenced' and all documents still show as required, however under each person it say 'Applicant approved' and the visa entitlement details are there - so guys, don't panic if you don't see any movement on this page, it means nothing!!

     

    I want to thank everyone in this forum (and the last one Tania!) as it's been a real lifeline - I'm heading away to visit family over Xmas so won't be on, but will definitely pop back in when I'm back to see how everyone else is doing!!!!

     

    GOOD LUCK ALL THOSE WHO WAITING - IT'S ONLY ROUND THE CORNER!!! :biggrin:

     

    That's good news, what a brilliant Xmas present!

    Have a good one, all the best!

  9. Update from me, we have got a buyer!!! for our house I'm just in the process now of going through the deal so more stress over the next 6 weeks or so.

     

    I wanted to know if anyone wanted to take over this thread as in the next couple of weeks I think things will start to get busy for, I will make sure who ever would like to take over get access some how to the front page, please let me know if you are interested.

     

    Tania

     

    thats brilliant news tania, been having a bit of trouble with my laptop so took me a while to reply!

    I am over the moon for you, wish you all the best for the future and thanks for taking over this thread and keeping us all in check!!:xmas12:

  10. Never thought I would ever say I like tapatalk, but listen to us all if we can't get used to the changes of a forum how will we cope in a new country. I say embrace the changes and from here on in I'm going to positively embrace them and enjoy the lack of familiarity of them. It is like a new start and we will get out of it what we put in. (yarr)

    I too will embrace the changes but I don't like that when you press 'like' it takes you to the top of the page every time so you loose your place!! :arghh:

  11. Well this gibbering jelly head:goofy: must have made a good impression during my first interview as I have been put forward for a 2nd on Tuesday with the “Big boss” :GEEK:so I have a dilemma now do i maintain the jelly head style that I turned the first interview in to or do I try a composed and organised approach for the second :wideeyed: Oh no. The email said that the interview will last for approx 1 hour oh boy :wub:at least I can have a load of post it notes and the laptop to hand to answer any awkward questions.:swoon: I’m not complaining though. A job would be fantastic. :jiggy::notworthy::hug:

     

    That's brilliant news!, fingers crossed for your second interview!!!:wubclub:

  12. :shocked:OMG I have a telephone interview with a company that I have applied for a job with.:jiggy: All of you that know me will know what that means, ARRRRRGGGGHHHH major panic:wacko:, what do I do:swoon:. Should I have been applying for jobs so early, do I, if offered move out there and leave hubby and kiddies at home to sell the house (I’am not being apart for Christmas)

     

    This is so exciting as I thought I might not get looked at being a newbie Sheila looking for a blokes job. :laugh:

     

    :arghh:Arrrrggggghhhhhh.:arghh:

     

    In life only 2 things happen in the correct order. :yes:

     

    That's great news!

    Sorry im a bit late but was out last night so just catching up.

    I'm sure if they want you they will wait fr you, a friend of mine was offered a job in Canada and they kept it open for about 6 months till they sorted themselves out with a visa so I'm sure you will find yourself in the same position.

    This is the next step on your new life ladder!! :wubclub:

  13. Hi all, those of you that had your medicals in Manchester, did you use the medmigration clinic in Bridgewater, or the Spire Manchester Hospital, and how was your experience?

    Thanks

     

    We used the Medmigratin clinic and I could honestly say it was an enjoyable experience! Dr Smith was amazing, he made us feel so at ease and comfortable and was great with our 6 year old. He even uploaded her meds whilst we were sitting there and ours were both uploaded 2 days later. :wink:

  17. Hi Tania,

     

    :biggrin:Yippee!!! Turn me purple! :biggrin:

    :jiggy:Our Visa was granted today! :jiggy:

     

    We got a direct grant without any case officer contact! Our CO Team was Team 7!

     

    It seems that it was a good idea to frontload really absolutely everything (PCCs, Meds, Form 80) + double and triple evidence for everything else.:wink:

    I actually could not really imagine what else they might request... :wub:

     

    @Blech: Now its your turn!

     

    Good Luck to all of you! I am hoping for lot´s of COs and Grants this week!

     

    Congratulations, well done!!

  18. Hubby sent passport's today. (look after them for me mr postman)

     

    My passport runs out next June so will need to get it renewed before we go for our reccie in Aug and then will have to tell the DIAC so they can update their records :arghh: so I think I might get the stamp in once I renew it.

    Does anyone know what happens if your passport is due or runs out while you are living in Oz? Can you just renew it in the sme way that you do here? Just cos my daughters only 6 and she just gets 5 year passports at the mo. :goofy:
