    Hi, it said a maximum of 7 days before departure. It was granted almost imediately. Yes, it is so difficult trying to do everything and saying goodbyes by phone or video chat. Last major thing to complete tomorrow Covid PCR test! Goodluck with your move also, and all the best.

    I booked at a private clinic some time ago before this new rule came in. Just did a search on google for reputable company.

    Hi Kimbslice There are two types of tests. Rapid antigen tests and PCR tests The PCR test is the 'gold standard' test which you have to have done to get a 'fit to fly certificate'. In the UK this is only available if you pay at a private clinic as I understand that the NHS free rapid tests are not accepted. I am due to fly to Perth on 5th Februry and have a PCR test booked within the 72 hour timeframe of my depature. A PCR test can cost upto £200 per person!

    Hi This statement from the Australian Dept of Health gives more details of requirements Passenger pre-departure testing Passengers travelling to Australia must be tested for COVID-19 72 hours or less prior to departure, and display evidence of a negative test result. PCR testing is required. Exemptions from this requirement may be available in extenuating circumstances including use of rapid antigen testing in rare cases. Members of a travelling party who have been close contacts (e.g. household contacts) of a traveller who has a positive test result will also not be allowed to travel to Australia until all members of the party are no longer infectious.

    Details of limit to International arrivals into Australia to be announced by Scot Morrison on Friday. WA have already agreed to cut arrivals to 525 people per week. https://www.sbs.com.au/news/australia-set-to-cap-international-flights-to-contain-spike-in-coronavirus-cases WA are also passing emergency legislation to charge people for their 14 days complusory hotel quarantine, same as Queensland.

    Hi Linda It seems to be only Queensland where you have to pay for your own hotel quarantine from 1st July. WA quarnatine is still paid for by the state at the moment. Check out the smart traveller site for details. https://www.smartraveller.gov.au/while-youre-away/returning-australia

    Thank you. Just have to wait now for 2nd VAC request and see when they start issuing visas again. Hopefully after 1st July but with Covid and the border situation who knows! Are you still waiting for your visa to be granted as well??

    Following submitting additional Medical tests at end of May, request received today (22 June) to complete form 815 Health Undertaking. Done and sent back by return. At least this shows that they are still looking at and progressing CPV143 applications

    This is taken from the Home Affairs website:- https://covid19.homeaffairs.gov.au/coming-australia You are only considered to be an immediate family member if you are: a spouse a de facto partner a dependent child/ren a legal guardian. All travellers arriving in Australia must undertake a mandatory 14-day quarantine at designated facilities (for example, a hotel), in their port of arrival. You may need to provide information to the Department before travelling to Australia.
