Aos payment of bond .. It looks again like everyone’s experience is different, as our son in law went to Comm Bank on Friday to pay the bond but they only set up a bank account for him and transferred the money from his bank to Comm. on Monday he went back and they set up another two accounts! We don’t know why, and then transferred the payment to Comm Bank long term deposit. There were no fees to pay dispute our SiL not having a Comm Bank account, and our second assurer wasn’t there because she lives in Canberra! And is currently visiting the UK! Just hope everything is Ok. Centrelink did ring SiL to confirm everything was oK so fingers crossed yet again.

So once we’ve paid Aos bond set up account etc do we upload everything to MyGov account as not clear! Ta

Oh my @BillSueMac and @JulianeGold what a headache. I can really feel for you all with all the trouble we’ve had with Centrelink. We are just paying our Aos tomorrow...so fingers crossed as things usually happen to us all the best to you all
-
I think it depends on the Centrelink!
-
Hi you may have a problem as the Commonwealth bank has had a major outage in some areas with branches closed and online is a bit iffy as well
-
Sorry Alan, having a really bad day what with Commonwealth Bank being shut! I misread and @LindaH27is right ...it’s the total of 2 payments. Phew! I’ll go back to my gin now....think I need it
-
I looked on immi website and it said a$47775

Hi 2nd vac payment....is this at the rate it was when you originally applied for the visa a$87200 or the current rate..a$95510. . .?
-
Well are we jinxed? Son in law took time off work to go and pay Aos etc and Commonwealth Bank has a massive outage! Every branch in the country is closed and nothing online either! Eeeeeeeeh
-
Just a quick question...once the visa is granted do you have to keep them informed of addresses etc or is it only during the processing?
-
Hi David thanks for the good wishes. Can I use Bpay with a uk account?
-
I know this may be a stupid question, it can I pay my 2nd vac through a currency site eg travelwise? Using my uk bank account?
-
It would be good if it could keep at this rate and get even better!
-
Hi. Huge congratulations....enjoy Oz. I think we might beat you as we’re on 50months and 8 days and are just submitting AoS!
-
Thanks @ramot I had thought of the activation side! But probably won’t come back to the uk once we’ve gone. Might save up the pension for good rates though!
-
Ok I’ll keep that in mind! Thanks for the hint.
-
Thanks for that..I was wondering whether to get rid of the UK account I have as well!
-
We’ve been thinking about the fact that we will have different income streams from different countries and wondered if anyone had usedTransferwise’s borderless account or something similar ? Any opinions would be greatfully reeceived
-
Yes I think a little “probeing ” may have helped
-
Well......................we’ve been asked for the Aos bond time to raid the piggy bank @Marilyn yes!
-
Thanks @Marilyn it’s the fact we can do nothing to hasten it on...so very very frustrating.! How you doing?
-
Thanks @LindaH27 Luckily the grandchildren don’t understand what’s going on so it’s not affecting them too much...but daughter is stressed out as well!
-
It’s the fact that we have no control over our lives at the moment not knowing what is going on! Stress induced headaches and illnesses at the moment...we just wish it would end

Have tried to get further info re Aos but had this response from Federal MP. Mr Conaghan is unable to intervene in any visa applications – there is legislation in place that precludes any MP from doing so. so we’ll just have to wait..............................................
-
She did online but it wouldn't submit so had to go to Centrelink with paperwork and sort everything out there! If the Centrelink knows about Aos it doesn't appear to be a problem, but if they don't you're teaching them!!!
