    Hi Andree, I think you need to contact centerlink as soon as possible. I hope you can sort it out quickly, a lot of people are having a problem with the Aos so hopefully it’s you will be able to sort it out. Good luck

    Daughter in law received a text message to say she would be receiving a phone call but as she was in a meeting she missed both text and call but they phoned again later that evening. It was more than 2 months after they lodged the Aos application.

    Yes they will need police clearance if they have spent 12 months total in any one county in the last 10years. Like Linda said it’s accumulative.

    Hi Greece, My son just set up a normal Commbank account in his name, I transferred the bond amount into this account. You can't set up the bond account without the letter inviting you to do so, as it contains information and reference numbers applicable only to your AOS bond. He closed his account as soon as the bond was set up. it just helps to be able to transfer the money if you already have a Commbank account. Hope this makes sense. He had the telephone interview and was told he would receive the invitation letter through his mygov account in about 6 days and to contact them if it didn't arrive.

    I don’t think any 2 clinics do the medical the same way. Ours was very straight forward unlike some people who had to touch their toes etc. Good luck on Thursday and I’m sure you should get the visa before August.

    Hi Greece, I Know you can set up the mygov account on line but don’t know the procedure... both your children need their own account to do the Aos. Both our son and daughter in law had to have an account and both were contacted separately for the interview etc. If you haven’t done so already I would complete the form 80 while you are waiting as this takes a bit of time. Especially if you’ve had a few holidays over the last 10 years or a few jobs since you started to work. Good luck.. Shelagh

    Yes agreed it is annoying. This is on topic..... Son and Partner paid the Aos on 26/10 but CommBank staff were very surprised they each received a letter from centerlink with different ref numbers and barcodes to pay the Aos, they had never seen this before. They set up the bond with both lots of information and issued the certificate for them to upload to centerlink. My daughter in law uploaded both barcode letters and all the docs and certificate on each of their mygov accounts to centerlink so that my sons will show all the info of his partner and hers will show all his info so hopefully they won’t have a problem. I will post if they have a problem.... they were told the next stage for the acceptance letter will be around 4 weeks. Hope this helps someone.

    Sorry Gurvinder, I don’t know how far back you need to to produce receipts from. Others in the same position will probably answer your questions. Good luck

    Hi Gurvinder, What documents are you talking about?
  12. Jellybean T
    Hi ielectric, As it’s my son and fill that are our sponsors I don’t actually know what the letter looks like but if it has the barcode on it then yes you need to upload that as well. It links the Aos bond to the applicant so without that my Dil was told without the barcode it will not show the bond as being paid. Scary!!

    Hi Rosiejaq, It just goes to show that you can’t rely on anything you’re told... from some being charge $150 for administration for opening the bond account for the Aos and others not. I’m sure we will all have stories to tell at the end of this long stressful experience... but it will all be worth it in the end. Keep us updated with your progress.

    Hi Rosiejaq, Some info my daughter in law gave me last night... she visited the CommBank to ask what she needed to do as centerlink said they will receive the letter on Tuesday to pay the bond. All sponsors for the Aso must be present at the time of opening the account.. it costs $150 regardless of whether you already have a CommBank account to set up the bond account.... the bond will be for 5 years but will automatically be renewed for another 5 years with nothing else to pay. You need a bankers cheque , cash or a CommBank account that you can transfer the money from.. once you have the certificate letter from the bank you need to upload that with the letter centerlink sent you containing the barcode to your mygov account. If you don’t upload the barcode it will not show that you have paid the bond. My son and daughter in law are going to pay the bond on Saturday as that’s the only time they can go together. Good luck... I hope this all goes well for you.

    They were told The paperwork for the Aos should be completed by 20/9 so as they didn’t hear anything by last week daughter in law tried phoning but couldn’t get through until yesterday. Just Incase they had missed the interview or email etc. When did you apply for your 143 visa. We applied 8/12/2015 and will be going to Adelaide if all goes to plan.
  16. Jellybean T
    Thank you for all that info especially the bit about opening an account with CommBank.My son also had his phone interview today and was told 7 to 10 days he will receive a letter giving him all the info needed to pay the bond. Then it will be another 4 weeks for immi to issue the acceptance letter.. not sure how long after that before we will be asked to pay the second installment. Don’t know if it helped or just coincidence but my daughter in law phoned centerlink the day before to ask if everything was in order.. they looked up on their system and told her it showed Active. Then the following day my son got the call.. coincidence or what!! Good luck everyone. Shelagh

    Congrats... although they said the MP couldn’t help maybe it made them look as your case. So pleased it’s all come together before your end of October deadline.

    Micheal, Are you applying for the Aso for your parents? Only asking as it’s the sponsors who get the call ... not every applicant even has an interview. Hopefully it was just a call from someone wanting to sell you something.

    PVCteam1@homeaffairs.gov.au good luck hope you hear soon. Then you can move to the next waiting room. Shelagh

    Thanks for that info Karu, It would be a nice Christmas present. What area in Australia are you going to. We are hoping to settle in Adelaide .
  21. Jellybean T
    We are hoping to have our visa and be in Australia early April. House is on the market at the moment and we have started the process for importing our dog... which is a six months process so March would be the earliest we could go.

    Still waiting for a response from centerlink for Aos. It would be so nice to know how long we have to wait.... even if it was another couple of months, it’s the not knowing that’s so frustrating. Everyone seems to have gone so quiet.
  23. Jellybean T
    Her time line is under her post. You can see it if you read the post on the pominoz site and not the email.
  24. Jellybean T
    The bond is still $10,000 for the first applicant and $4,000 for the second. The proposed increase that should of come into practice on the 1/04/19 was scraped.

    Hi Kari 1, like you we received our email requesting docs on the 6/8/2019 and my son and daughter in law completed the Aos application on the 9/8/2019... they were told it would be completed by the 20/9 but so far have received nothing. They checked their centerlink account and email. I think a lot of us have completed our paperwork and are now just waiting again. It would be nice to hear of someone from October or November that have had their Aos payment request.
