  1. I had some very good news two days ago.... My PMV will be granted on 25th Aug. I applied around 10th Oct 2014. As I am already in Aus I emailed my CO to say I will be leaving Aus for a 5 day hol in Aug, she replied that when I return this will activate my PMV! Can't describe how excited I am to start working, I've been here for 3 weeks now and no job is killing me mentally!
  2. I contacted my CO to ask if an upcoming trip would qualify for me being out of the country for 3 working days as I am currently in Aus on an eVisitor, She simply responded with telling me I had 30 days to hand in the final evidence (my Aus police check)... am I looking into this too much by thinking that she is wanting to grant this sooner rather than later? Wishful thinking, I reckon but you never know.
  3. Jen, I did the same two days ago and got a very quick response from my CO with the information I required. I have no idea why they have that auto response up considering some people have to have speak to their CO directly.
  4. i have to say, having already paid a huge sum of money for the original 300, a further $1145 does indeed feel unreasonable for me!
  5. Another question for those in the know. I am currently in Aus on a tourist visa. When they give me notice to leave and re-enter to activate the subclass 300, I understand I have to leave for 3 business days. I already have a trip booked but it will be Thurs night to Tues night. Is this enough for the 3 work days?
  6. The Aus immigration website has changed and I do not appreciate it one bit!! Just to be clear, when I am granted the Subclass 300 and once we get married, do I apply straight away for the partner visa? It's so confusing (and expensive).
  7. While it's great that the visas are being granted earlier than we '10-14 month' people expected, I am freaking out about wedding planning. I was counting on my visa being granted in Oct at earliest so I could get married in April. I was planning on viewing and booking a venue by July, now I don't know what to do
  8. If it's any help, I included two informal statements from my friends. I just got them to email me confirming they knew us as a couple and that they believed our relationship to be genuine. I think as long as you have the formal ones you will be fine, but it can't hurt to include as much as possible.
  9. Yep. My stats are: PMV lodged on 9/10/14 CO confirmed 20/10/14 I'm going to wait for the grant in Aus on 21 June and doing my medical there and will lodge police checks there.
  10. I am doing this. I have emailed my CO to verify that I will be there and that it's okay to get my medical while I'm there too.
  11. It is a great opportunity, and even if you do enter Aus before you get the visa grant, I guess it's another excuse to travel somewhere else. My plan is to try NZ or back to Asia as knowing my luck it won't be granted while I'm outside of Aus! Good luck, really not long for you now!
  12. How many of you went to Aus to wait for your visa to be granted? My application was received at the beginning of Oct 2014 and I'm heading in June to do some travelling in Aus and Asia with a LOT of savings!
