Congratulations GeoSurfer! If I may ask, which occupation did you applied your visa in and if you have any travel history outside your country? Just trying to understand if these things makes any sense. I've visited five countries in past couple of years so wondering if that makes any difference in process. Any input will be appreciated.

GeoSurfer Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 wow congrats GeoSurfer........ thats less than three months though........ party time for you :laugh:did u upload all ur documents upfront or CO requested something later on?? Panic time more like. I waited for CO to request medical and PCC (no rush so didn't front load), they also asked for birth certificate. Could've uploaded all up front but still went through quick enough. My medical had extra checks but these were very quick, probably because I pestered the clinic and my GP so they rushed the documents through. Congratulations Geosurfer, glad to see the phonecalls are still generating grants! I handed my notice in yesterday too, great feeling hey! Scary feeling! I enjoy my work so very mixed feelings at the moment. Congratulations GeoSurfer! If I may ask, which occupation did you applied your visa in and if you have any travel history outside your country? Just trying to understand if these things makes any sense. I've visited five countries in past couple of years so wondering if that makes any difference in process. Any input will be appreciated. Other Spatial Scientist, I don't think profession matters that much. I travel a lot but I haven't lived abroad and I never had to do form 80 so there were no checks on my travel. As above, my medical wasn't straightforward as I needed to request specialist reports from GP afterwards, but that didn't affect it much. I was very 'proactive', chasing up documents etc. I'm sure they would have got round to me eventually but as everything was sat there ready to approve, I thought I'd chance my arm at a call.

It often happens that DIBP request documents that have previously been uploaded. Collate the documents into a PDF file and resubmit them. Ensure that you label them correctly and are under the correct heading and subheading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pranavan Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Hi, I am glad to reply to your thread as I obtained visa on 8th July 2015. You provided the requested info on 30th June and it will take some time to assess and finalize your visa. I feel, it will take atleast 1 month. If you do not get any response after this timeframe, you can call to their direct hotline number and can make an enquiry. The experience you claimed will not depend on the date of your skills assessment from Engineers Australia. Don't bother about these things, just wait some time. Everything would be fine.

Ella22 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Has anybody been assigned a CO for WA who lodged their visa around 24 April? As our immigration agent said today they haven't heard anything regarding our application Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mohdrehan82 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Ella u applied under 190? I applied on 28th april and CO contacted on 17th June for additional documents that I already have provided Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ella22 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Mohdrehan82 I thought it was a 189 my partner is sponsoring himself and I'm just the add on so not 100% clued up on the details. Is it not odd though that it's been over 3 months since we've lodged and we've not even got a case officer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ella22, indeed....... everyone here is expecting for the grant in 3 months and u have not been contacted by CO yet, i guess u need to followup with ur agent strongly, cause I believe everyone here has been contacted by CO at least once. best of luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
