Hi There. I applied in Dec 2015. You should have received automatic acknowledgement of your application Did you receive this ?

Was extended by a year from the date they extended the entry date. In my case 11/1/22. Expiry date had been 25/2/21 let me know how you get on. Finger s crossed for you

Hi I completed a travel facilitation form and follow up with an email to parents@homeaffairs.gov.au. You will get a bulk standard response but you should then get an extension to your entry date. If not, contact the MP for the area you are travelling to. My daughter contacted for me and problem was resolved with 2hrs. good luck.

Frustrating thing is I went for the option of spreading the big fee with one initial payment and one to be at end of two years. This was promoted on website !!

Hi yes I asked about that but was advised I couldn’t. Will investigate further. Thanks for response

Hi. Is any one else having problems getting answer from home affairs re confirmation that the 173 visa entry expiry date will be reviewed Visa awarded 25/2/20 12 months given to enter AU unable to travel to date due to AU and Uk Gov travel restrictions Have been advised that it will not be extended and no return of money subsequently told to fill in Facilitation form but website shows no response will be received if your visa number not show which it isn’t Sent email to Parents@homeaffairs au.com got standard response referring me to covid details on website. why can’t they send personal response. Any thoughts ?
