  1. Article just posted re parents - Am disgusted and furious that are still not classing us as immediate family for this concession !! Hoping it may change if we keep campaigning! https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/stupid-and-downright-dangerous-parents-of-australians-to-be-forced-overseas-to-receive-visas-20201201-p56jfe.html#comments
  2. Apparently we are not classed as immediate family ??? I wonder who gave birth to our sons and daughters here in Oz hoping the situation will change ! https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/stupid-and-downright-dangerous-parents-of-australians-to-be-forced-overseas-to-receive-visas-20201201-p56jfe.html#comments
  3. I’m not so sure! But hopefully things might change ,,
  4. You should email Julian.hill.mp@aph.gov.au. He will be furious at this call you have had. He is taking up our case to be included in the Concession of not having to leave like the partners etc maybe if you say you can get a flight just after Xmas so they won’t be In Quarantine over that period they may agree to that @KathyN has just done the Singapore trip. it’s pure blackmail and discrimination
  5. I’m the same supposedly 3 mths to leave. They said to someone today they could extend medical by 6mths and police checks by 3mths. So nearer the time(beg of Feb for be) I’m going to ask about this definitely fighting to stay longer
  6. Yes! he is talking about the bill re partners etc today so after he gathers more info he will do ours. He needs lots more parents to email him though. If you are on any other sites etc please promote this
  7. Am emailing this reporter also https://www.9news.com.au/national/australian-partner-visas-government-to-make-temporary-changes-due-to-covid19/5159f43b-da12-4c4f-a779-b71e79eab19e?fbclid=IwAR3v3CVKK-Y8rAKj_RqDNJOF4Fxvv2Uy3SyMWHRUhLUs3atOVEwSxoYbznw

  11. Some visa categories do not now have to leaves Oz to get visa grant. BUT parent visas( eg 143 ) are NOT included in the list. No surprise there, feeling totally discriminated against!!  https://covid19.homeaffairs.gov.au/covid-19-visa-concessions
