We were also already in wa on a 457

My visa was processed in Perth!

we applied jan 2013 and did nothing until meds etc were requested end of April so then we got police check, meds and new passports for the kids, medicals took 9 weeks to clear as they lost my x ray but the day after our medicals were finalised our visa was granted! Beginning of July!

Would have been quicker if we did the medicals before they were requested but we didn't have the funds at the time

Just to let you all know we got our visa 2 weeks ago! After 5 and a half year of stress and being in a student visa then a 457! I did all the forms myself and found it pretty straight forward and easy! We had a problem with medicals as they got lost in a pile of back logged medicals then lost my x ray so they took 9 weeks to clear but the day after they cleared our visa was approved!! Yay

The forms have security restrictions and wont let me do it! do you think it would be ok to send case officer the whole form without my siganture then a seperate attachment of my scanned signature page?

Thank you so much for that, I will try that now! Im not very good on computers lol

Can amyone help me with my form 80?

I have filled it all in on the computer and I printed the signature page and scanned it back to the computer but how do I replace the signature page on form 80 with the scanned and signed signature page? I hope this makes sense

Or could I just emailed the form 80 and a seperate document of my signature page?

thanks

Hi,

Im new to this thread we have our 186 application submitted, we have a case officer who has requested medicals, police checks, form 80 and a couple of work related documents.

We have had our medicals but just waiting on the kids passports to come back before they can have their medicals, UK police checks should be back soon, I have my Oz police checks but it says they need the original certificate? where do i send it or can i scan a certified copy? and we are finished the form 80s tonight and submitting them!

Its great to hear some people are getting their visa quickly! we have been here over 5 years on temp visas, to think we could have pr soon in amazing!
