  1. Hi ya we have just been through exactly the same thing I am an Aussie resident and I came to Oz in Nov 6 months pregnant, my fiancé is British and has a criminal record he applied for a tourist visa so he could be here for the birth we applied for his residency in November and as it was going to take 9 months he had to apply for tv in the mean time. It was taking so long for the tv and getting near my due date I got the hospital to write a visa letter to say I needed him here for support as soon as they received the letter they granted him the tv and then whilst on a trip back to the uk as his 3 months were up we had an email from our agent to say his 300 was going to be granted on the 7 month mark,I was so worried because of his record but its all turned out lovely and we are very happy in Melbourne with our beautiful baby girl. All the best and for the birth I'm sure it will be fine
  2. Weve got it, my fiance got his PMV visa granted on Thursday, he has been here on a TV for three months and was due to leave on the 6th May, i wrote to our CO to ask if she could tell us if his visa would be granted around the time of his trip back to the UK as it was around the 8 month mark so we knew weather to book a return flight or weather he could have a one way back to Oz we received a paste and copy email from CO from the immigration website saying about processing times. i had mentioned that we had had a baby and my fiance didnt want to leave us for long but also was copy and paste about compassionate circumstances, having a baby not being one of them. So disheartened we accepted he would return on another TV and booked a return flight to the UK for Aug, he flew out and a day later we received an email form our agent from the CO saying his visa could be granted in the next few days on his trip back. He arrived yesterday on his PMV and were over the moon, what a relief, wedding booked for Jan, yay and now to get a job. We applied 9/10/12 CO 15/10/12 medicals 5/11/13 visa granted 16/05/13
  3. Hi everyone, has anybody come to australia on a tourist visa flown out and then flown back in a week later on one way ticket, my fiancé is here at the moment waiting for his PMV, his 676 3 month stay is over soon so wanted to go back to uk for a week then come back. We applied for PMV on 9/10/12 have emailed CO for estimated grant date but just got an automated reply about cases being processed in order. We have a month old bubba and I need the help and an going back to work next month so fiancé is gonna look after bubba till his visa is granted, he has a letter from TV CO saying they have no consideration not to grant PMV but we still have to wait in line, any advice would be brilliant, thinking maybe just best to by return ticket and cut our loses and then fiancé can go to NZ to be off shore for visa grant
  4. hi there i too have a 5 yr visa, its not a bad mark if you leave oz, you have to had lived in oz for two years out of the last five to get an rrv if you are still in the uk when our visa expires in 2015 you wont be allowed back into oz, thats how my visa works anyway .hope that helps but dont take my word for it every visa if different
  5. when I had my medical we had lots to choose from but Australia have cut back in who they allow to do the medical so it will a case of using who is close and a panel doctor I think they all charge about the same
  6. Hi had the same problem when applying, i tracked down my elderly bosses from where i served my apprenticeship, they agreed to sign a statement saying i did my apprenticeship but i had to prove the business existed too but as it was 20 yrs ago they had burnt all records, so had had to get them to sign a letter to give the local council permission to give me evidence of rates paid(council tax didnt exist) by the business. I also found an ex employee who still had a contract from her employment with then she also wrote a statement. it was a nightmare i am a hairdesser and you never tend to leave a salon on the best of terms i had to go to 5 previous employers and do the same 2 had ceased trading but its all worth it,' i know live Melbourne , dont give up
  7. We have applied for the PMV and it took around ten days to get confirmation of receiving application. good luck

Hi everyone just wanted to update you all, we have had visitor visa approved fiancé flies out in 31 days yay, vv co has emailed London to say she sees no reason that our PMV should not be granted, however it still is going through the process and will follow processing times so I guesses we applied 10/10/ 12 were looking at May/June )-;

  15. He went through an agent and they know whats coming and what will be asked for so got my friend to send the explanation with the application it saves time, if they have any query on anything they will just ask for additional imformation, you will be fine
  16. Hi how worrying, my fiance applied for his e676 8 weeks ago they require no more informtion were just waiting i give birth in 7.5 weeks and need him here for the birth so yes a bit panicked maybe there is a hold up. My fiance had a criminal record have you anything like that, that could slow up the process.
  17. Im not sure what a 417 visa is as long as you decalre it when my friend applied for his residency he included a little statement explianing about the drink driving how it happened and why he wouldnt do it a agaun and he got his visa
  18. Hi There bet your very excited to say the least just wanted to let you know i tracked fiance visa says being processed and our agent emailed me this morning to say she has emailed character assesment unit direct to ask do they need anything else before granting the visa, aswell as explaining that every case is so individually assessed so fingers crossed we hear something soon , all the best
  19. Hi Ellie, it is all very stressful this visa stuff its the whole rest of our lives in the balance, my fiance applied for a PMV visa in October i came to Oz in November as my Visa was due to expire in December, i am also expecting our baby which is due in 8 weeks, we have applied for a TV whilst we wait for PMV as i need support form my fiance and help with the baby not too mention he doesnt want to miss the birth he already has missed out on so much kicking etc and i could do with a hand waddling down the road! Our agent has applied for both visas and says its ok and if you read posts on this forum lots of people are doing it, when you want to acheive thing you have to make sacrifices we are going to use loads of our savings as fiance cant work till he gets PMV and the flying in and out to be granted the visa but we are madly in love having a baby and cant bear to be apart its already been two months of heartache we are still waiting on the TV as my fiance has a criminal record form his youth. our agent emailed them today to see how much longer. so fingers and toes crossed and go for it (-;i am very stressed as you can imagine but its only a few months when you have the rest of your lives
  20. A massive congrats Donna, i think you must be nearly the last of June applicants, there seems to have been a little influx of visa being granted maybe it does slow up over xmas.
  21. Hiya,oh im so happy for you i cant or well i can imagine how your feeling. I dream of that day all the time, i sent my agent and email this morn so hopefully when i wake i will have a reply, can i just ask has your fiance been here before if so did he tick yes to convictions before, when i bought OH out here in Jan our booking agent told us that as OH conviction was over 20 yrs ago it wasnt an issue and put the visa on his passport ( little did we know)he told us that all convictions were spent, when we got his acpro report we saw its not spent, arghh anyway so when OH and i came in jan this year he ticked no to convictions, we have had all that too explain too. the travel agent has written a letter saying that he thought that was the case so that helped. Dont worry about your other half ticking yes to convictions i have been told that customs will make call to check he has the right visa and wave him through were you will be waiting, how bloomin lovely and exciting, thanks for replying to my posts. If we dont here anything in the next couple of days OH is gonna chase things up as im getting mega stressed if they say no i think i may go into labour there and then ! bet your not gonna sleep much tonight
