    I sent them the IMMI request to leave, my passport page, and G2G Grant to enter Perth.

    That is so odd! I remember I only needed to call them to book a return trip on the phone, then about 2 days before my flights Singapore Airlines in Brisbane emailed me about visa documents.
  3. KathyN
    I booked directly through Singapore Airlines.

    I have replied to Emma in the Facebook group but for others' benefit I will repeat the steps here: 1. Book return flights to Singapore that have a short transit period in Singapore. 2. Advise your case officer and asks them if your tickets look alright for your mum to be granted PR before her flight back to Australia. 3. Your airline will likely contact you for visa documents that allow your mum to travel outside of Australia (as a temporary visa holder) and permit to come back as a PR. 4. tell the airline of your situation. They will likely make arrangements with Australian Border Force, provided with your case officer's approval and cooperation, to let your mum go through customs in Singapore, then get granted PR before she boards the plane to Singapore. Otherwise she will not be allowed to depart at all. 5. Then it is just a matter of keeping herself safe on flights, taking health precautions, etc. As a transfer passenger from Australia who does not go out of immigration clearance to enter Singapore, your mum can stay in the transfer terminal of Changi Airport before she gets on the flight back to Australia. 6. Quarantine in Australia.

    This is terribly uncertain! Even if parents were included in this concession, they would still have to wait until "early 2021"??

    Thank you. I had the G2G Pass. Everyone has to. You either get it approved and given a QR code before you arrive, or have to fill in the paper form at customs.

    Nevermind, I found that condition on the website. My grant doesn't have this condition so it seems this is a discretionary condition, not a mandatory condition. My case officer did not have any issue with my travel plans.

    I didn't upgrade because Business Class was full. I ended up having 3 seats to myself anyway so I could lie down Economy was empty I'm not sure. My parents have not entered. Our visa grants did not require that I must enter after them. Where did you find that requirement?

    Hi all, I have landed in Perth and on my way to hotel quarantine. Thank you for your good wishes and good luck to everyone waiting to receive 2nd VAC

    Just a tip for anyone thinking about not boarding the flights after getting visa at the airport - the Border Force will make sure you board the plane and fly away! They escorted me the whole way to the gate. Each one there knew about my case and my face since it is quite "special".

    Only 3 minutes after I sat down in departure! Also upgraded my ticket to Singapore to Business class and will try to do the same for the trip back just in case anything happens

    In departure area and just got my visa grant!

    Unfortunately the Air Travel Pass must be applied between 7 and 30 days before date of departure, and I only bought my tickets on Monday

    Crisis averted! The airline agreed to escort me through customs and wait for my visa grant letter until 1 hour before boarding time. Then they will let me go! Otherwise they will offload me and I will have rebook flights and apply for an Air Travel Pass to enter Singapore, then go back to Australia. Fingers crossed!

    I just received this email from GSD_BNE@singaporeair.com.sg and am unsure how to respond. Considering I do not yet have Australian PR at the moment, will they not let me check in?! The flight on Friday is the one departing Brisbane to Singapore, not even the one arriving in Perth on Saturday. I also got the G2G Travel Permit for Western Australia, but I don't know if that is the "required health documents" ?? I searched but don't see any other documents required for entry into Western Australia! Can anyone please help? I have replied to their email asking for a phone number to discuss.
