Congratulations! Also, NOT FAIR We've been waiting 13 months already for our 100 VISA. I guess they don't care about the 100s that much, as the 309 is actually Indefinite... So yeah. Even banks treat the 309 and the 100 as the same thing.

Thank you! I was a bit shocked how quickly they granted. 
I hope your 100 comes through quickly! that’s good to know that they treat 309 as indefinite. 
I have gone through both British and Australian spouse visa routes now, have to say the Australian system is much better, and cost less overall!

Hi Paul,

I hope you are well.

I’ve received s56 request for more information (medical check and AFP NPC). I have the AFP NPC ready now, but my ImmIAccount has reached 100 max documents, so I can’t upload it to my document. 
Could you advise if there is an alternative way to upload the document?

Thank you!

Thank you so much for your quick reply, Paul!

Another question, I’m booking for my medical now, in the eMedical referral letter, it says visa type BC100 Spouse (Permanent) instead 309 provisional, Is that correct?

Hi everyone,

I have applied for partner visa in the UK this week. My husband (sponsor) is Australian citizen by birth and also British. He’s not lived in Australia since 1992, and has been living in the UK since. 

My question is - would my husband need medical check and to complete form 80? As both are not listed as requirements in the sponsor application.

Many thanks in advance for your help
