Hi

If anyone has had this experience or knows more please advise. My daughter (19) and I have been granted our 309 visa last August and while I've been on shore living and working with my spouse, my daughter complied with her visa conditions and entered Australia within the stipulated time but has since returned to SA because she had registered for her studies before our visa was granted. 

The 309 allows travel in and out of Australia with no restrictions but is she required to relocate before the 100 visa is granted or within a time frame of the 309 being granted?

Thanks Nemesis,  that is good to know.

Always keep your proof its the only thing that can prove a truthful loving relationship, especially if you are living apart. The 309 is the first part of this visa anyway, Immigration want to be satisfied that is legitimate relationship.

Thank you, all sorted.

Hi Tochika

This stuff is not for the faint hearted and I know how you feel. I was lucky to get mine granted in ten 10 months.  

Reading your thread it would seem that you medicals and police clearances have expired by now. Are you dealing with an agent? Have you contacted immigration Pretoria?

Im asking because i used an agent and in some instances i had to call Pretoria because my agent wasnt getting back to me in time. 

Hi

Im looking for guidance regarding my drivers licence,  I have been granted a 309 partner visa. Can I apply for a QLD drivers licence? I have a valid South African drivers licence.

Thanks

Im using an agent. We completed the form and forwarded to agent. I assume she uploads to immi account. 

We were asked for a form 40 sp two weeks ago and our application was done online.

Thanks missA

i haven’t knocked their door yet.

Did you tried contacting them or have they contacted you themselves?

whats your place of application?

I lodged off shore from South Africa. Im also using an agent. I have emailed them twice. The first time i got a generic response the second time i did get a response to say they had requested info from my agent but due to some email glitch we didnt get that request so im so happy i did email. They were reluctant to give me further info and said i should liase with my agent. Also there was a about a two month break between emails since i dont like to worry them unnecessarily.

Thanks.Looking forward to warmer weather for sure. Its ones and twos here in VIC. Lol. Goodluck and best wishes to you too. 

Thanks Samlab. After a few more emails to different companies we were lucky to get some help. Hoping it all goes well. 

Hello,

I am looking for referrals of rental companies that are in QLD Oxenford, Pacific Pines, Coomera,Helensvale. We will be moving from Victoria and are trying to secure accomodation for rent. Can arrange for a family member to view, most companies are reluctant to lock in a deal without meeting us first. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi

Taking into consideration we are applying through different offices and not sure the turn around times for different areas but we seem to be in the same place. 

Have you tried contacting them via email maybe to asking politely if anything further is required? You may get a generic response but worth a try. Check the website for you contact options.

Hi Everyone, 

I applied for AFP police certificate and after some days on 7 may I got their email that police check is completed and the certificate will be dispatched on next business day and will be delivered in 3-7 business days. after 10 business days when I didn’t receive it, I called again and they said okay we will dispatch another copy and I am again on a wait of 3-7 busiess days.

 

Usually how long does it take to receive the certificate after it has been dispatched by AFP??

PS: The delivery address is locally within Australia.

Regards.

Hi

Ours took about 7 working days to be delivered to Melbourne.

 Expect ur interview  in ages .. till then they may not contact in between .. 

 Tip : share all the documents online timely

Hi, Thanks for your reply and tips...I am doing this through an agent so I don't have access to my Immi account and I assume they will notify me.

Hi,

I am new to this forum. It is encouraging to see so many timelines, it sure helps with the wait.

My timeline as follows for subclass 309 visa.

DOL 02 October 2017
