    Hi, I'm able to apply for my 801 Partner visa (permanent) on 2nd May 2021. I've been told I can submit my documents no more than a month before, but wanted to get ahead of the game and gather together what I need so I can apply as soon as I'm able to. While the Immi website clearly tells me all the steps, I can't find info on what I have to submit/upload. Does anyone know what I need to have to submit? I've continued to gather the usual personal evidence over the last 2 years for our life together and our circumstances haven't changed since moving here. Thanks for any help!

    Hey, meant to post this the other week. My 820 was granted on 18th September - having submitted the application on 2nd May. Still in shock!!! 18 months earlier than we were told to expect

    Howdy! My 820 was lodged 1st May 2019 so figure I've got a long wait ahead meantime! My bridging visa kicks in shortly as my PMV 300 runs out on 31st July. Just keep uploading evidence meantime...

    CONGRATULATIONS! So pleased to read this!

    We used an agent...he was great and we got regular communication, and a phone meeting every couple of months.

    Adelaide! Fly in 48 hours time

    Congratulations!!!!!!! What a week it's been for lots of us. I'm literally in the process of packing to fly out on Wednesday. Frantically preparing my property for the estate agent as it's going on the market this week. So many things to sort out!

    Amazing news!!! Congratulations! It's just the best feeling

    Immediately phoned my other half up in Adelaide to tell him (my hands were trembly so much I couldn't hit the right keys!) - then I was with clients for 6 hours solid so had to switch brain off from visa thoughts completely. It's hit me completely today - woke up and remembered life had changed since yesterday!! It's champagne tonight and the start of making many urgent 'to do' lists. Need to figure out when to close down my business (sole trader) so once I've done that everything else will be easier to deal with. And I can actually look for jobs in Oz too. Wow! Fingers crossed that London processing continues at this pace

    Can't believe it! We got our golden email today! PMV 300 granted through London - perfect timing as I fly to Adelaide next Wednesday. Guess I'd better get on with organising our wedding which is happening in 11 weeks time I don't think the news has really sunk in yet as I got the email 10 minutes before I started work so quickly spoke to my partner over in Oz then have been flat out since then. Still in shock! Good luck to you all out there!

    Yeah, we’ve had a steady stream of additional things uploaded - plane tickets, invitations to things, photos of us on our various trips.

    Yeah, it's defo the order in terms of applications lodged and grants received which is throwing a few of us now that London seems to be finally moving on things. As I said before, I can only hope that there are a few piles on which we are all sitting so one pile might be seen faster than another pile. That's what I'm comforting myself with anyway! (simplistic visualisation, I know!!) I've a meeting tomorrow with my RMA so will see what he's saying. Nothing he can do to speed things along, but at least he's keeping in contact! We hit month 8 of waiting this week...

    Wow! Another grant from London! How exciting! Congratulations Hope you're celebrating this weekend!!

    Fingers crossed London is starting to move on things. Must say although I was excited to read about the last few grants, the fact they're after we lodged is a little distressing...trying to remain positive, though (still!). There are times when I find this whole process utterly disheartening - just keep hoping that our application is on a different pile to those that have already been granted and that there isn't an issue with ours.

    Don't worry, you didn't sound smug in the slightest! I'm genuinely delighted to hear about folk getting movement on visa decisions It gives the rest of us a boost, believe me. I know it'll all be worth the waiting... We're at the stage of needing a decision as our travelling back and forwards is costing us a fortune in time and money. This will be my fourth trip over this year and my OH's trip back to Scotland over Xmas/New Year has cost an arm and a leg. The things you do for love!!
