I couldn’t get the Immi account to work , Linda, the confirmation took about a week.

I realised a few months ago that I hadn’t linked my new passport, just faxed off form 929

Scott Morrison is well aware. We have sports people moving with families all over Australia at the fury of families who can’t see each other…especially at the NSW/Queensland border….they are obviously more important…..NOT . I understand your fury.
-
I wonder as well about visas prices and also Aos salary /income levels…maybe they’ll try and raise that again?
-
Totally agree with you LindaH27. I think with borders virtually closed and the chaos of sudden lockdowns still in some areas the federal government isn’t really bothering to think about this out loud. I wonder how much the pandemic is covering up and what decisions have already been made!
-
Goodness!! And I thought waiting 52 months when promised 18-24 was bad. I wonder if the lure will still pull as hard when you realise how old you could be before you get there and whether the government will make health a big issue? I think dependants will almost certainly disappear as they will be well over 23 ??

The contributory parent visa is a long wait…about 10 years I think. We drew down some pension money to pay for the visa as it was more important to be in Australia than not! We’ve just drawn in the purse strings and adapted to life here…..definitely worth it

If you watch the tracker of the ship’s progress you will see it docks in Sydney and Melbourne! Don’t think they use roads

Totally agree and as I now work at a medical centre it is more than frustrating that the vaccine supply is so slow.

It’s been misleading people for years. When we applied in 2015 it said 18-24 months so we planned jobs etc with this in mind. It took 52 months in the end and thankfully our job was flexible around this
-
Sorry LindaH27 didn’t realise that!

Yes you have to be offshore to apply for 143 if you aren’t on a 173. All conditions and many answers are here https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-listing/contributory-parent-143#About

We have to remember the balance of family test!

It was showing 18-24 months when we applied in August 2015 and our agents thought this was the processing time as well. We took 52 months until we got our visas ....we thought they were never coming and the various setbacks were so dispiriting. I just wish everyone that’s waiting a stressfree wait.

Congrats you’ve had a long wait...it definitely is worth it....enjoy being an Aussie
