We had our Pr granted on friday evening, nom n visa were lodged on the 13th August

Ok thank you

Ok thanks our MA said no i would of sent of with application but to late now, hopefully they dont ask for it

Hi from wat i know they would ask and immi website clearly states form 80 needs to be supplied else it will delay processing

Ok thank you, i would rather of sent it with every thing else but MA said no

Hi, can i ask did many of ye supply a form 80 with your application? And if not were you asked for one? My ma said not to do it unless asked just thought be handier to hav all sent of to avoid any document requests...

Hi all long time watching first time posting

Lodged our nomination and visa on the 13th August in WA, is there much of a wait difference between states or is it all the same...

Perfect thanks they told me it would take a few weeks!!

Hi i had my car over the pits today and then sent the paper work to Vic to get my plate, how long does it normally take to get this back??

Assuming this has been imported under the Personal Import Scheme then it would need to have an independent valuation done to determine the value. Random valuers can give wildly varying figures which is why we arrange favorable valuations for our clients. I can't comment on your situation specifically unless I know more about the costs they are claiming to confirm if that $4,000 is just GST or if that also includes other Customs charges, import duty etc. If the value they are using is too high then you should be able to challenge it with a new valuation depending on how far through the process is currently.

 

Without knowing all of the information and details of the vehicle I have done some quick rough calculations, and I would estimate that your entire Customs bill (including port fees, Quarantine costs, cleaning if necessary, import duty and GST) should be under $2,500 if shipped by RORO (roll-on/roll-off), under $3,500 if shipped by sole use container for just this one car, or somewhere in between if it was included in a container shipment with household goods. I calculate the GST component alone to be $500 or less.

My 2004 BMW 320 diesel sport landed in oz on wednes customs are sayin the gst is goin to be $4000 is this very unreasonable!!!??? That would mean they think the value is $40000 I havn seen a 2004 advertised here for more than $15000 what's the likelihood of challenging them on this and winning??!!

Hi does anyone have a idea of how long it will take for a defacto visa to be granted? my husband is in Australia on a 457 and now we are going to start the process of adding me to it, any one know how long this might take?

Hi my question is, is there a time frame that you hav to import ur car to oz? My other half there since April on a 457 I'm following in November but he has since heard that you only hav 6 months to send car over once visa is activated is this correct??
