@Invicala Stupid question but as you've used a MARA should they not have direct contact or an easier way to contact immigration with your concerns.

They just said that the CO will know you’ve uploaded evidence because apparently there’s a button on immi that once you press you’ve submitted all that was asked, apparently sends them a notification...

If uve uploaded info and it's still within the 28days just hang in there. They sometimes come back to your application. If you don't mind me asking what did the request you provide more info off?

If it was a police clearance hold on to the hope they will try and grant you the grant before the 1 you originally submitted expires. 

They asked for an accro certificate as apparently dbs isn’t accepted - something my Mara agent should have known. And they asked me to bring my NOIM forward

That’s it ! I’ve done both... now just waiting again we brought the date forward to October... not sure what happens if we haven’t heard from them by then..

When I spoke to the call centre they kindly emailed my co because for some reason my emails weren't getting through and on a few occasions the email address they provided didn't work and the emails kept pinging back , I explained and they simply emailed my co with my phone number and a request to call me as we were having technical issues , which she did several times and was very lovely 

this time around we've had info requests off two separate people and no news since we updated all the new into required 

How do I find out who my CO is? I applied via a MARA agent.. apparently, once you give them information, there is a link you have to click in the Immi account which alerts them you have uploaded your documents they requested. Did you guys have this link?

I think they give you deadlines for everything, we got our pmv visa and a date we had to enter Australia by ( we cannot leave unless we apply for bridging visa b I think it is and have special grounds, otherwise if we leave we cannot re-enter Australia) we just prepared everything and were pretty much ready to go within the timeframe given, our co was so nice and told us our visa would be approved assuming the police check was all good and even told me the entry date 

But the pmv allows multiple entries into Australia?

PMV granted 14 March 2018

Married November 24th (Bali) & November 30th (Australia)

Request for more info by CO 27th February 2019

Followup on requested Police clearance 22 May 2019

23th May 2019 Granted Partner visa (subclass 802)

Thanks! Just I’m worried that I’ll have to wait months and months rather than weeks. We brought it forward to October which could be a problem if it’s months and not weeks   

did they also give you a deadline to submit everything by? Did you hear a week later?

Hi everyone! 

Just a wuick update and hoping i could get some advice, 

we recieved news that we finally got a case officer. They asked for an updated police check and asked for our NOIM to be brought forward. They gave us a deadline of 18th June to do this by, however we have submitted it today. Anyone have any experience of how long after this I will be expecting to wait for possible approval? Feel like I have months more to wait now 0.o

Hi Everyone,

I applied for PMV 300 first stage in aug 2017. Asked for correspondence 2 times, most recently was in Oct 2018 including my medical, since then haven't heard anything.

Waiting for more than 21 months, even the processing time is 13-21 months. Tried to contact them few times but they said it's a general query helpline and we can't help you with your timeline you have to wait.

Now this wait really makes me crazy. 

Anyone have any suggestion?

This actually scares me... what hope do I have then seeing as I applied in Dec 2018 and haven’t had any correspondence...

maybe tey emailing them on the email you got your first correspondece ?

DBS has never been acceptable for migration purposes. You need to get the check from ACRO  https://www.acro.police.uk/police_certificates.aspx

 

Yeah this is the one I have no applied for, but would have been handy for my lawyer to tell me that when I submitted in December and not 5 months later when I asked her out of the blue about my DBS expiring

Hi.. no updates yet. There's no requested documents also for submission.

My patience is really tested on this PMV application.

How about you?Is there any update?

Which country did you apply from? I applied from the U.K., haven’t heard anything. We uploaded all of our documents before submission , were told it would make things faster... except now have been told they have changed the police checks and don’t want the old DBS anymore but want something new from the NPCC

Hi.i have some inquiries regarding my PMV which was lodged last Dec 2018.Recently after series of updating ive checked my estimated processing time in my immiaccount was adjusted into 12 months to 17 months...then after two weeks I am shocked that it turned out into 15 months to 21 months.

what is the possible reason behind? can someone help me with this?and can I still apply for a tourist visa despite my pending PMV application?can we get married there eveb though my PMV is not yet approved?thank you.

Hi there although your message wasn't directed at me I thought to let u know. I applied for my PMV stage 2 in Dec 2018. I got correspondence from the CO in Feb 2019. They requested more info from me like evidence but since I havnt heard anything. 

Hi! 

Thank you so much for answering  

I just dont know whats happening then. I applied for stage 1 using a brisbane agent using a process called decision ready. Ive not heard anything at all... im interested to hear what @Elyka recieved and when !

When did you get stage 1 if you dont mind me asking?

Hi everyone , my PMV visa granted 2.5.19🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳  My timeline is 7 months . 

Congratulations! 

I was wondering if i could pick your brain a little bit. I applied for my PMV in december 2018 as decision ready with all the medicals and stuff already uploaded. So my question is, did you roughly apply in october somewhere and if so, when did you first get contact from a CO ? Did they ask for any more information or was it straight grant?

Many thanks 

Hi guys! Watching and sharing 

I applied 14th December 2018

sent my application as decision ready, going to do the medical this Tuesday. Mini account yesterday said that the wait times are between 12-16 months.

has anyone had any movement?
