I'm sure you will hear soon. good luck c Hi, Carolann, Can I ask what kind of "prove of salary history" did you provided in your application? Just received such a request, but I am not sure what to provide. Payslips for each month or just a few? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolann Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Hi Ozee i contacted my payroll department at work and asked for payslips for the past 8 years. As half of my original payslips were lost but they printed off a copy of my monthly salaries. i also gave 8yrs of bank statements to my agent. You name it I provided it. Police checks were done in February and medicals last month so CO didn't need anything else, just straight to grant, I didn't even know I had a CO allocated.

asifha Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Weird that they are asking about payslips and bank statement because my CO didn't ask about it. She just asked about polio vaccination certificate and spouse funtional english proof. Do you think she will asked me about payslips?

Carolann Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Case officer didn't ask for anything, our agent just had me well prepared so that we would be ready for grant without being asked for anything. Can't believe it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainC Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 The document checklist says three months payslips but DIBP can (and often do) request more evidence of employment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. You're lucky it prevented you from going further. It could have been a very expensive mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfarrell87 Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Hi all, we lodged on the 22nd of June through an agent, got a request on the 12th August to submit a form 80..that was submitted on the 18th,,, haven't heard anything since...I am starting to panic now.. The wait and anxiety is beginning to take over!!! Is there any idea of knowing how long it will take for any decision to be made!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cengland Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 Hey, as far as I know, they process until they can come up with a descision or need further information. If you need to provide a document or such, they put you to the bottom of their current active pile, which could be a few cases. But in most cases I have seen it appears to be about 4 weeks before you hear anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolann Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 The agent we used had got us to fill the form 80 in before we lodged. They prepared our EOI so well, nothing was needed or requested. All documents front loaded and visa granted just under 8wks of lodging. Hope u hear soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagan1991 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Hi everyone, I lodged my 190 visa application yesterday, just wondering when I can expect to hear back something from my CO. Also,I lodged my application as on-shore applicant, will it make any difference in processing time. Regards, Gagan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolann Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Hi there, I'm not sure about the onshore but I lodged my 190 visa on 26th June and it was granted on 20th August. All documents incl. medicals and pcc's were front loaded so visa went straight to grant without me hearing from a CO. The waiting is excruciating but at least you're there already. We fly out 17tg October Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagan1991 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Hi Carolann, Thanks for giving info. Yes that's what I am also trying to do, upload all documents beforehand. So, probably I can expect in two month's time, if everything is at right place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolann Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 In my experience Yes. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cengland Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 Hey, anymore grants from the July applications, we are hoping to hear shortly as reaching 8 weeks this week. Everything crossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cengland Posted September 1, 2015 Author Share Posted September 1, 2015 Hi Guys, Just recieved a response from DIBP - they have requested some further documents. Evidence of Employment - I have references from all my previous employers, CV and payslips. Any ideas what I could provide further? Birth Certificate - My other half's country doesn't provide certificates at birth so we don't have one. Provided the passport scanned, but this is rejected - all we have otherwise is her National ID card - do you think that would work? Thanks.
