Albatroses Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Congrats Nursebucko! It's worth the wait! May I know what's the change u see at ImmiAccount? Status? Correspondence? For those who was requested additional doc from CO, how do you response to them? I uploaded the docs in ImmiAccount and reply to the same email I received from CO. Just wondering if I did it right.

Bradley1986 Posted December 11, 2014 Author Share Posted December 11, 2014 Congratulations Nursebucko! Albatroses - Dependant what I was asked for I either upload the information/documents or email back a response. All depends if what they are asking for can be uploaded or whether it is just responding to an email. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did hear from a CO last Tuesday to ask for a certified copy of one child's birth certificate and proof of hubby's business/self employed, they also asked for proof of employment for our son, he is 12! We emailed them to say this and husband uploaded the rest the same day..........Still waiting........................................

Me too uploaded all docs and emailed them last Tues, still waiting for their response... Shona got hers the next day. Could it be our email got lost somewhere; system maintenance etc. I'm thinking to call, but don't know the number. Does anyone tried calling before? @Shona, congrats!

TSB81 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 My husband is an electrician so we did the vetassess route first. We did our medicals 18th November and sent off for the police checks. The medicals were uploaded two days after and police checks came back last week. I uploaded them and just waited to hear from co but didn't hear anything till this morning when we received an email stating visa had been granted. All gone very quick.

Albatroses Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 hello,firstly, Congrats on ur grant. may i know from which country r u from? i have a query regarding translating marriage certificate. whats the procedure to get the translation from NAATI? TIA. Regards, rain Hi Rain, Thanks! I'm from Malaysia If you are not in Australia, you don't have to get NAATI for translation. But in my case, I got a good deal from a NAATI translator to translate my document. Other professional services in my country charge much higher! I got the NAATI contact from NAATI official website. Here's from IMMI site: "A translator in Australia must be accredited by the National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters. A translator outside Australia does not need to be accredited, but they must endorse the translation with their full name, address, telephone number, and details of their qualifications and experience in the language being translated. The National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters has more information." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
