I waited more than 1 month. They will give you an estimated completion date and they will call you before the completion date

Hi everyone 

Just wondering if anyone received the 2nd VAC payment request email for the 143 visa. We submitted all the documents requested, including AOS acceptance letter, on 7 Nov. 2022

What's the timeline like? It looks like it now takes a bit longer for immi office to finalise the 143 visa applications. 

Thanks

Hi everyone

I am applying for 143 visa for my parents. I have uploaded the AOS acceptance letter onto the contact form.

How long it takes I can hear from the case officer? Do I need to call them to suggest I have uploaded all the documents?

thanks

Be mindful that onshore parent visa lodgments are limited by age and not available to everyone. 

Hi Raul

Quick question. My mum and dad are almost 70 and they are currently on 600 visa. arrived last month. 

Will they be eligible to apply for 807 aged parent visa on shore? They do have 8503 no further stay as a condition. 

thanks!

Got comms from DHA to leave the country (not China) & visa will be granted  Just wanted to share:

Things To Do Tips after initial application (while waiting couple of years till you hear back from a case officer from my experience/things I may have done differently)

Apply for a visitor visa (& hope they grant min 3 years multiple entry or more)
Once visitor visa granted, fork out more money and pay for a year in advance in private health insurance  & do not let it lapse to cover for unforeseen waiting period problems (this could change in future)
Form 80 takes a long time, better start filling in and after every o/s visit, making a record every time
If you have overseas non english, national id card, relationship cert etc, get it translated via Naati 
Go to centrelink* and get a CRN, it just speeds things up when AOS is requested
Open A/c with CBA, just speeds up the AOS Bank Draft process
Last but not least, monitor this forum every ~5 months to be in the loop (read from current page -15)
*One could, like I did, apply for their parents, they literally have no idea lol. I just mentioned that its gonna be a long wait, leave everything to me and just get the documents ready when I ask
Thank you ALL!

That's for all those tips. very useful!
