theKG Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Hi everyone, Anyone received their grant yet????????/ I wish this week we will get our grant. Can't wait getting impatient......... Regards, Shugah Still waiting for updates here mate. I have seen that some of the members here had an average of 12-16 weeks grant to referral lead time. If that's the case then I'll be getting my grant in August, which is too late as my classes hould already commence this month. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shugah Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Hi theKG, Mate please don't call me sir. I'm just a normal bloke like yah. You can call me friend that will do. Well the right way to do is to email your CO once every 2 weeks. They have lot of applications there and they are getting lot of mails from other people. Also when ever they assign you CO at the bottom of the mail it's clearly stated that your CO will reply to yah within 7 working days. This is what I do mate. Hope it helps.

Guest piramida Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Hi, My visa is granted, but I do not have Visa Label in passport. I just got from CO paper where write that my visa is granted, and I do not need Visa Label in passport to entrance in Australia, but I have to check for another country. I just change plane in Dubai. Does anybody knows will I have problem if I do not have Visa label in my passport when live my country or in Dubai ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shugah Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Hi piramida, Don't worry about visa label on your passport for Australia as they have given you the grant already which is E visa, which should be more than enough to enter Aus. Now for dubai it all depends as I don;t know which passport you are holding? also check online if you can travel visa free to Dubai/ If you can then don;t need to worry. If you have doubts then find Aus embassy in your city or country pay the fees for visa label there. Before going there please call them and find out.

Cheers, Shugah Thank you very much Sugah for advice. Please tell me are you sure that on boarding in my origin, they will see my E Australian Visa. I contact AU High Commission but unfortunately they stop to work with visa from 1. Juny this year, and they advice me contact Embassy in Beirut, but I think it is not enough time and I am honestly scare now sent to Beirut and lost passport. I call Dubai, one lady told me that I do not need visa because I do not go out of airport, and I think that they must have my e-visa in Dubai equally Edited July 9, 2013 by piramida Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theKG Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) Piramida. I read this from other forums With effect from June 2012, Australia no longer use label or stamp for visa grant. only need the visa grant notification letter. here are some links to read that might help http://www.immi.gov.au/visas/vec-faq.pdf Governments of other countries may require you to have a visa label to transit through or to depart their country. In this case, you can request a visa label. It is your responsibility to confirm other countries’ transit or exit requirements before travel to Australia. The Australian Government cannot advise on other countries’ requirements. and http://www.immi.gov.au/allforms/pdf/1405.pdf - if you want a label(you need to pay if you want a label) I hope this helps!:wink: Edited July 9, 2013 by theKG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found it but I still have doubt Do I need Visa Label when I live my origin country. I call Dubai Emirates, and one lady told me if I do not live airport, I do not need Visa Label, but what if somebody there on airport when check my passport and visa said you must have Visa label, but I just worry because it is something new. I really want enjoy this trip without stress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theKG Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 try this link Piramida - http://www.immi.gov.au/contacts/overseas/u/united-arab-emirates/visa-information.htm read the whole article, just to be sure contact your immigrations office. sometimes airline staff do not know about these. [h=2]Travelling without a visa label[/h]You need to have a valid visa to travel to Australia. We do not require you to have a visa label placed into your passport for travel to Australia. This is known as 'label-free' travel, making travel to Australia simpler and more secure.If you live in Pakistan you can confirm your arrangements by contacting your local Australian diplomatic mission. If you are transiting or exiting through another country, you need to check with the relevant government authorities about whether you need to show a visa label in your passport. We cannot advise you on other countries' requirements. More information on travelling to Australia without a visa label and how to confirm your visa entitlements is available.

Shugah Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Hi piramida, Like I said you don't need to worry I think it should be fine as long as you gonna be in transit and not going out of the airport. Please please please also do you own research. I'm 100 % confident that you don't need visa label to enter Aus. Just the grant letter will do. Why do people opt for visa label? Because sometimes when you traveling to some country or let's say some where in Asia, there some countries don't accept e visa ( grant letter). Forget about other countries sometimes when someone is taking a budget airline, at the counter the person will ask you for a visa and they are not well aware. I would say when you get to Aus you can get your label there itself. It makes your travel easier instead of you getting delayed then they will process it faster. Like you mentioned Beirut so i'm guessing you are from Lebanon. So i don't know which countries you get visa on arrival or not so please do your research. Dubai is advanced so that's good you dont need visa so what are you worrying for. All the best and have a safe flight.

I living in Cyprus and High Commission stop put Visa Label and they told me to ask AU Embassy in Beirut. In Embassy told me that I must sent passport in Beirut to get Visa Label, but I am scare to do it. Thank you very much for your nice wishes. I wish to you everything the best.
