Shearer Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 So been hearing the ppl from august have been getting grants now - not be long before we get CO assigned. Anybody heard anything yet? Also our agent won't give up log in details for evisa - in regards to booking a medical do we need to do it thru evisa? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also our agent won't give up log in details for evisa - in regards to booking a medical do we need to do it thru evisa? Thanks et Yes they started to give august grants apparently. I think CO are allocated around the 8th week. Sometimes it take to long to get the grant and sometimes they give it directly. I did my medicals soon after I lodged my visa and they were cleared in 2 weeks. If I were you I would insist for the log in details otherwise it is going to delay your grant. September applicants keep us updated so everyone will know at what point the grants are . Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Hi Shearer, I applied for mine on the 19th of September and hopeful to have a CO assignment by mid November. Hearing about August applicants getting their grants now gives us a big hope. Keep us posted of your progress. Smitty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomicon Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 We lodged/paid for the visa application on the 17th September, uploaded all documents required within a week, waiting on CO allocation and have our medicals booked for next week. Based on others timelines I am hoping for a grant before Christmas meaning we can get flights booked for the end of Feb. Cannot wait to get on with life, seems to be on hold while we are waiting.

Shearer Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 We lodged and paid for visa 12th Sept - so coming up 6 weeks now. We are hoping to get visa before Xmas so that we can go into the new year relaxed and ready for our new adventure. We are planning on moving over by April. Hubby going to go over first get settled in a job and set up home for our two little girls and me. Also that way I can make sure everything is sorted this end before going over. Going to call visa company this week so we can book our medicals for beginning of November. Hope to hear some good news soon from everyone.

Joeybee Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Thought I'd update here and see where everyone else is up to. I submitted the visa on 21st September, had the health checks on the 2nd October and am sending off form for police check tomorrow. No CO yet, but I believe that people who submitted their visas in August are starting to get CO's and grants now, so I'm keeping everything crossed that so long as I get all the documents uploaded (which I've almost done) the grant should come quickly after the CO. I'm not sure whether the Health checks went through okay, a week after I had the health checks, the e-lodgement page changed to say "no need for health checks for this applicant" for both me and my Husband. I'm presuming the health checks have been cleared??? Applied to AHPRA on 15th October. They got in touch today to say the payment didn't go through (I'm presuming because I used a debit, not credit card, so my bad). They also said they need me to re-send all the documents that had to be certified, as they aren't happy with the person who certified them. I used a solicitor, this was fine with ANMAC...apparently not for AHPRA, so I'm seeing a notary public on Monday and re-sending all the docs again. (Another £100 to add to all the other expenses!) :-( But once I've ironed out these few bumps, everything should be okay. One more query, I'm confused about form 80. It's not requested on the check-list for the documents needed for 189 visas, but I've noticed that some people have been asked to submit it, so me and husband have filled a form 80 out each anyway. I'm dying to get to Australia for Christmas to spend it with the family we'll be staying with in Perth, but realistically I think it'll be January. Anyone else expecting to be moving out around that time? How is everyone else getting along? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Hi Guys, Is anyone else having trouble getting through to 'check progress of your online application'? I have been trying for a few days but all I get is 'service temporarily unavailable'. When I log in through skill select, it shows application lodged status.Enough to confuse me big time!!!!:embarrassed: X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainR Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Our application has been in for 7 weeks now, and it seems that 8-9 weeks seems to,be fairly normal. I have frontloaded all of the Medicals and police clearances so am hoping we may get a direct grant within the next week to two. We can only hope and pray.

batman21 Posted October 24, 2013 Author Share Posted October 24, 2013 Hello Guys, I am a bit confused here about police clearance checks. My agents says that for PCC we need to wait till case officer request for it. Is that really so? I believe that there is a option to front load PCC?

AS far as I know PCC is an essential part for the visa, why wait if it needs doing anyways, it will only delay things. I did mine soon after applying for the visa and uploaded it straight away. It takes 10 days to get your standard service PCC in the UK anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
