well if i have been alloted one they havent informed me abt it ...i wish they'd hurry up

im sure sending the medical and police check will help you to get the Visa faster IA

Hi guys i sent my documents on 25th april and got acknowledgment letter on 28th stating waiting period is 12 months and CO gonna be allocated in 6 weeks ets ets.. but after reading this thread i guess its gonna take hell lot of time..man that is depressing dnt knw how im gonna survive..

anywaz nice meeting everybody here and im gonna keep on updating if i get any updates myself.

Oh yeah i also submitted my medical and police chk dnt knw if dats gonna help speed up the process.

 

cheers

Hey AMz,

welcome to the forum just curious...how did u submit the medicals ? coz the instructions were to wait till the CO tells us to get them done.Most of the other applicants from the US and Uk submitted them at the time of submitting the application....Wish i had gotten them done as well now

hey salam!

ANY FEB OR MARCH APPLICANT GOT CO ASSIGNED???

Hey, after browsing other threads im pretty sure we will have some news when the new financial year starts in Australia i.e : July 1st

lets keep our spirits up

Hey First Knight,

im in the same boat as you

I'll update if i have any news here

Best Of luck

plz i need suggstion...aus high commision sent me and resend me my acknowledgmnt lettr on my hotmail but i din gt any of their email,i chekd my junk mails as wel bt nothing thr as wel,wt could be tha reasn wt shud i do nw??plz suggst me

Fatima why dont u call them up and ask to which id they sent u the email coz all the correspondence is through mail and if they dont have ur correct email id tht might create a lot of mess in future when CO would requires further documents from you.

Hey March applicants, it seems like i might have been assigned a CO as i got an email today saying my case officer will contact me if anything else is wanted .

Simee..you will get ur CO assigned soon.

I have heard that applying for a tourist visa may delay your 309 visa processing

i'll probably wait till june end and if i have no mails from CO then i'll apply for a tourist visa

Hey Fatima,

I applied in March aswell and i have no idea if i have a case officer as yet or not.Maybe if u call and ask them they might tell you ive uve been assigned one or not....Emailing them isnt going to work i think.

Dr fatima .. your case officer will inform you when u have to go for medical to IOM. they will send u an email and a number for taking appointment. you have to follow that process.

hey sam,

can you tell me wht documents are required for a tourist visa.My hubby is an australian citizen and i have also applied for a309 Spouse visa this March

Hello people,

I called up the embassy to enquire abt my CO and got no info,seems like im in for a wait.

Hello visa 309,

i guess they do i cllled them up after 10 weeks to enquire for updates and the answer was 12 months is the published time and if we require anything we'll let you know

Have u been assigned a CO as yet?

Hi everyone

I just wanna know that in the partner visa offshore checklist, there is documents required for sponsor which shows that 1. Proove that ur husband usually reside in australia.... How can i proove that???? Should i just photostat my passport stamps with dates mentioned on it which shows arrival and departure dates.... Which shows my husband usually reside in australia....It can become a proof , i think so.... Any other suggestion most welcome.... And how to pay partner visa fee in australia for the file lodged in india...Thanks

Hey,

Well to prove tht ur husband is a resident in australia you can take photocopies of his

a.Passport(if he is a citizen)

B.copy of his tax statements

C.copies of his entry and exists from aus ,driver's license,utility bills,and

If he can contact the department of immigration im sure they will guide him to the office where he can pay ur application fee in australia

Dear shezi,

When did u lauched your visa application. Have u received any acknowledgement?

If so after how many days u received acknowledgement from

Australian high commission?

Please do get back

Thanks

I applied in March and i have no update despite emailing twice already.....any other 2012 applicants who have any news ?

i checked a few other forums...our indian counterparts are getting visa in 4 months approx

Hey everyone,

i applied mid of March too and got the acknowledgement letter a week later informing me tht within 6 weeks i will be contacted by my case officer incase they need any further documents, or if need me for an interview after tht................ i havent heard anything from them.However after a 6 weeks wait i did write to enquire abt any possible updates but i got a polite email telling me the timeframe is 12 months.For anyone tht applied in Feb-March2012 Hope this helps

I read on another forum tht submitting the police check and medical in the beginning also helps to speed up the case....any idea if we can do tht too even though we've submitted our mandatory documents ?

P.S :Im new to this forum but from all tht ive read all of, you are doing a wonderful job of keeping each others hope alive.....Please do keep updating
