Hi I’m using this forum from last 7 years & its always helpful tO me. Now I m waiting for my citizenship ceremony from last 4.5 months in Wyndham city council victoria. Here is some important update if some in same boat as well. Thanks

My life story Early June 2016 nomination & 187 rsms visa applied as a cook from student visa & provide decision ready application with medicals, police clearance & AFP. Also include my overseas spouse in application as well with all the supporting documents marriage certificate medical, police clearance. student visa expired in july 2016, bridging visa A kicks on August 2016 applied for bridging visa B to travel overseas for one month Aftet coming back every single day hoping that today is my day and file will open today or tomarrow because processing times thoes days are 6 to 8 months which is slowely moved to 24 month As I was applied RSMS direct entry from student visa so my lawyer advise me unless you are granted any further visa you have to follow same visa conditions as you are following from previous visa, No more work than 20 hours per week. After waiting 18 months again applied bridging visa B second time to travel overseas last december. I also want to mention that our lawyer advice us to keep update every single BAS through out the application & we did. finally late march file opend and case officer ask for documents like business tax return for 2017 & 2018 lodge with ATO, Balance sheet, Profit & loss and for visa me and my spouse’s medical, AFP & police clearences All were provided in april and nomination granted in april Again we are hoping that as visa & nomination lodge togater both will granted together but PR granted after 62 days of nomination approval, Overall 25 moths from date of lodgment. THANKS ALL this forum is great help through out thOSE 25 moths.

Did your company done 2016-2017 tax ? As you mention your company is in profit & they lodge their 2016-2017 tax with profit then whats wrong with accountant its your legitimate right to ask for latter or 2016-2017 tax showing company in profit & heading toward prosperity..

I wish i could see this member more often on this forum.... All of his predictions that he made 6 months ago are slowly coming true.....
