  1. Yes its very unfair, my comment was in response to a comment further up about maybe Immi were prioritising onshore applications. It’s probably a CO error. Let’s see what happens.
  2. I’m sure that it’s already been mentioned on here that someone asked immigration if they could have their 143 visa issued whilst they were onshore as they didn’t want to leave Australia to activate it because of COVID and we’re told no. The conditions/law of the visa cannot be changed and you must be offshore for the 143 to be issued.
  3. Good luck to that person but it’s very unfair to applicants who are patiently waiting in 2016/2017. I have just checked my letter that I received and it’s the same.
  4. Hi, there’s been a few January 2016 applicants finalised recently, but not many. Lots of parents in the same boat as you waiting for 2nd VAC. Check back on this thread
  5. Yes a I’ve seen a couple of 173 to 143 but that’s to be expected as they are in Oz. The only saving grace is that when they do start issuing them we are 1st in line don’t give up hoping
  6. The only March applicant that I know was someone who moved from a 103 visa to a 143 visa therefore had been in Q for a long time in total, over 5 years. So it could be that the Two issued moved over to a 143. Centrelink are awful to deal with, we really got the runaround from them. Our application was handed in to an office and uploaded in McGov and they still rejected it. Ringing the centre in Tasmania who deals with applications was a nightmare. They admitted it was there but took over 4 weeks to acknowledge it.
  7. Hi, I don’t know any in March or April 2016 being asked for 2nd vac. I’m March 2016.
  8. Hi BargeUK, as you can see from my signature info that the wait for the 2nd VAC request is very slow at the moment. And I know that there are others still waiting for the 2nd VAC request as far back as January this year. It’s just a long waiting game because of COVID. I can see your timeline on your signature so you have set it up correctly.
  9. COVID has slowed the processing down considerably
  10. Police checks and medical are valid for a year, We are in the same position as you, just waiting for 2nd vac request since March. Immi are waiting tIll border restrictions are relaxed so sadly could be a long wait. But fingers crossed that it isn’t.
  11. Such a heartless response. And the majority of 143 applicants are not Elderly! Australia have to open borders at some point, why not to visa applicants first?
  12. Did you call the AOS office in Tasmania and can you remember how long after it took you to receive acceptance letter after the phone call? My son in law is ringing them again on Monday.
  13. Thats a centrelink form? Im also Perth bound eventually!
  14. Thank you but the text said it was rejected as nothing received by them and they have confirmed on the phone they have got it, so its just a case of them missing it. not sure how. Im sure this has happened to others in the past, I can remember seeing a couple of posts
  15. Yes, he uploaded everything, Centrelink said everything there that should be
  16. Waiting patiently for AOS acceptance letter, Son in law gets a text on 11th March saying AOS rejected as not paid in time. He goes to centrelink, waiting 90 minutes to be told that he needs to ring AOS processing centre in Tasmania as paperwork is on system! Centrelink can't call as they are now closed due to time difference. Son in law rings 1st thing on the 12th, waits 80 minutes on hold (after being cut off once after 30 minutes on hold). Told it will be reviewed and he will get a call back before close of business on the 13th, no phone call. centrelink are a nightmare
  17. Hi my son in law said that they just read the T&Cs regarding the AOS to him and asked him if he understood. That was it.
  18. It says in the auto response from the mailbox to send the letter to immi as they can process application quicker if the client sends the acceptance letter straight to them.
  19. Hi all, do I need to take my comms bank guarantee letter into centrelink or can I submit it online onto Mygov? I’m sure I’ve seen something on here before about this but I can’t find it. thank you in advance.
  20. Hi mine said I would need an Australian police check if I had spent 1 year or more in Oz so that’s accumulatively.
