If I remember correctly, you mentioned that the meds and pcc were done without a request from your CO. correct me if I am wrong...

I would suggest you look into job sites and select for yourself which state has more jobs in your field. http://www.seek.com.au http://www.careerone.com.au ... are 2 good sites to start with. Good luck!

Did you import your application/case into ImmiAccount from old online system? If yes, then it may be a glitch. When I imported my application into Immi, lot of information was outdated and stayed like that even after the grant of PR. But if the application was initiated using Immi then I am not sure, sorry. Maybe someone else can help you out for that scenario.

I was granted PR approx 3 months after my Meds and PCC were requested.

I am also from an HR country and it took 3 years for my GSM ! Its better to go on with your normal routine and only think about moving (easier said than done once your Meds and PCC are requested by your CO. btw you may have to redo them...

We still have 3 months to go before we can validate our visas and travel. I think this time spent together will indicate in which direction the relationship is going. If her visa will gets cancelled due to non validation AND later on she decides that she still wants to be with me then I will sponsor her. I have spent my time, effort and money on this process and she was for it but then all of a sudden her family does not want her to leave, and on top of that they are not cooperative at all. They have told me that they will no longer cooperate anymore in regards to my dealing with Immi and she is standing right beside them. They asked her to bring all her documents and passport back so that I don't have access to them. Its good that the PR is here. As for remarrying I think I am being practical and I cannot spend my life alone. I want to settle down, start a family and want someone to grow old with. In regards to informing Immi, I don't want to since I am not sure myself whats going to happen to our relationship. And like you and CollegeGirl have already mentioned that it is not required so I'd rather wait and be sure about it before I take any further steps. I had originally thought about validating our visas and coming back and give some more time to our relationship, but she is against the whole idea of traveling to Oz. And I think there is no point of me validating my visa without her. I would rather move permanently if it comes to that. If there is a better way to go about this situation do tell me. I desperately need some good advice, keeping in view that I want to emigrate. Honestly, what would you have done If you were in my place?

Thanks for the clarification. I had understood your point earlier but wasn't sure if I should inform Immi now about problems with my relationship or wait until I have some concrete info/divorce evidence. I think I know how to go about it now... Cheers

... any suggestions please

Thanks for the reply. I am not sure right right now how things will move on between us. But would it be OK if I validate alone and she does not. Can there be any problem in the future for me if her visa is not validated? My concern atm is to move to Oz and start my life whether she joins me or not. If the relationship will not work we can file for divorce and inform immi at later stage if that happens. I also want to keep the option open for sponsoring the spouse at a later date if I remarry. What is the best way for me go about right now? am I doing it right (in terms of immigration) if I follow this plan: Move of OZ alone and start my life. Give some more time to my relationship. If it works then no problems and she comes over otherwise file for divorce later on and inform immi. I am 99% sure that my wife will not validate her visa if things don't improve between us.

Hi. sorry to budge in this thread like this but i figured it is not active and my query is related to the subject. After going through this thread some questions still remain. 1. Does the immigration need to be informed if and when a relationship starts to fall apart. Does that classify as "change in circumstances" or only divorces or similar milestones need to be communicated to the immigration? 2. And is the CO the point of contact with immigration even after the grant of a visa? My situation is that I have recently been granted a PR and my wife is now double minded about moving to Oz. Our relationship had also been downhill after first 2 months of marriage. We have been married for 7 months and still living together. She was OK with it all before. I am the main applicant. I am planning to validate my visa alone next month and there is a big possibility that she will not travel to Oz even to validate her visa. 3. Would that put my option of applying for a spouse in jeopardy if things fall apart and i want to remarry at a later stage? Should I just validate alone and will I have to provide evidence as to why she did not validate and could that fact go as negative in my future spouse application? Should I inform my CO that our marriage is falling apart before validation? Any help will be appreciated.

No

Around the same month as my medicals. infact my case was dormant from 2012 until Feb 2014. All medicals and PCC were done in Mar/Apr 2014.

Thank you everyone for all your inputs My medical which is my last document submitted to DIBP, was done 3 months prior to the visa grant but I dont know why I am given such short notice, and no I was not asked if this short notice is acceptable to me I guess the best thing for me to do is to come for a short visit maybe for few days (due to my job obligations) with my spouse and then emigrate later on...

Good Morning All, I have recently been granted my PR :wink:and I want to be clear about the date in question. 1. Is it so that if I am unable to enter Australia before that data my PR can be cancelled, and will entering Australia before that data activate my visa? 2. If for some reason my spouse cannot enter Australia before that date with me, does that mean her PR may be cancelled? 3. Is there anyway to extend that date since I am only given 3 months. Is that normal timeframe? I have seen threads here where families are planning emigration in next year or so. Any inputs/experiences will be appreciated.

I will describe what happened in my case. After the medicals were uploaded to immigration it took 4 weeks (in march 2014) for them to be "finalized" as stated on the old online system. I was also using the new ImmiAccount system in parallel (but now the old system is not accessible anymore). When it would show as finalized in the old system the link for medicals would disappear from the new immiaccount system and a note would read something similar to "medical exam is not required for current visa conditions" I am in Pakistan and it took 4 weeks for medicals to finalize after being uploaded, which were done in march and april of 2014. hope this helps and good luck.
