JasperIndon Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Congratulation Molly35...My application was lodged on 14/6/14 but haven't heard anything from immi. I hope won't be long for me Hi allI have been following this thread for a while now, but haven't posted in ages, I found this thread very useful during the waiting process of PR 186. I wanted to share my timeline with you. Nomination and application lodged 18/6/2014 with all documents Medical done on 27/5/2014 before applying for visa Permanent visa granted today 1/9/2014 I work as a division 1 nurse in a large public hospital in Melbourne, my application was received by Parametta NSW, but my visa was granted by a case officer in WA. During the process I never heard from my case officer and I never received any acknowledgement that I had a case officer. I checked my immiaccount a few times and it always said in progress! Today I checked it at 11.20am and it said in progress, then I received an email at 11.38am from WA immigration stating my visa had been granted!. Then I went back on the immi account and my in progress had been changed to finalised and there was my visa grant letter. I really didn't expect to receive my grant yet and thought it was pretty quick. By the way I never filled in FORM 80 and they never asked me for it and I am from the UK. It is a lovely surprise for my first day of annual leave and I wish everyone else the best of luck with their visa process.:smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly35 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Thanks guys for your messages of congratulations : ) I meant to say that I did temporary transition scheme. Also I did hear from some of my nursing colleagues that they process nursing applications faster. Not sure how true that is but 2 of my nursing friends had their visas granted within 12 weeks.

Guest kmchu Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I don't know what you mean by "doing" June applications. I applied in mid-May and have had no correspondence at all. I can't see how they could be "doing" June apps when they haven't "done" May apps (at least not that I've been advised) I'm in the same situation. Lodged on 26 May but heard nothing so far...

samsen Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Hi Paulin, Congrats. A quick query - since you did not get any contact from CO, How did you know you had to email Melbourne DIBP office? Sorry my query could be dumb as I applied late in june and ignorant of how the interactions happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry my query could be dumb as I applied late in june and ignorant of how the interactions happen. You don't have to email Melbourne DIBP. But some others had done so after the 3 month mark, and had a good response so I thought I would try... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kseafield Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Hi guys, just an FYI that I just came across. Here's some interesting info on the medicals. http://www.immi.gov.au/gateways/panel_doctors/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kseafield Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Does "Health has been finalized for this person for this visa subclass based on the information provided to the department", mean that my high blood pressure reading in the medical has been accepted?

paulinmelbourne Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Does "Health has been finalized for this person for this visa subclass based on the information provided to the department", mean that my high blood pressure reading in the medical has been accepted? Where do you see this mate? Is this on your Immi Account? According to the document you referred to you would be graded 'A' if "Physical findings are completely normal, including a blood pressure at or below the recommended levels, .." The question is what is the recommended level. Usually most Doctors would say 140/90 is the border between 'normal' and 'hypertensive'.

kseafield Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) Hi paulinmelbourne, I saw this on our immiaccount today. I was looking for the A or B grade but cant find it anywhere, hopefully someone here can tell me if it's possible to check.

PerthpomSRT Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Nomination Submitted 17th June Application Submitted 8th August Medical done 2nd September Nomination Approved 2nd September Hopefully not long :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulinmelbourne Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Ok. I never got a message like that on my immi account. Once the visa is granted, immi account shows finalised. Maybe it's the same that finalised on health means that there is no further action to be taken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest101310 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Hi there, I applied for visitor visa e600 online on 24th Aug 2014.The status of my application is finalised, but I never got any notice or an email confirms that it has been accepted or refused in spite of getting acknowledgement of application letter on 26th. When I check my immiaccount there has been written (granted) beside my name but when I click on view grant letter link it shows that there is an error has occurred and the service is temporarily unavailable although I have been checking my immiaccount almost everyday from thursday 28th after 8amAEST until today but the problem still remain. Could anyone tell me please what's the matter with my application. And do I have to apply again or it is still in progress? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest101310 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Check your VEVO please www.immi.gov.au/e_visa/vevo.htm I get this message when i try to check Your immiAccount does not have access to the VEVO service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest101310 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 (edited) I get this message when try to check my VEVO. "Your ImmiAccount does not have access to the VEVO service" Edited September 3, 2014 by guest101310 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sucxx Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I get this message when try to check my VEVO. "Your ImmiAccount does not have access to the VEVO service" you need to use 'check your OWN visa using VEVO'. using VEVO as an immiaccount holder is for organisation. You can either use password(need to call immigration to register this i think), TRN or visa grant number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest101310 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 According to VEVO's conditions i guess i can't register to VEVO because im currently outside australia and i don't have australian business number. Do you think there is another way to solve this problem? since ive got no reply from eVisa Visitors Helpdesk although i emailed them three times last week. thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaggieMay24 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 You don't have to register for VEVO as an individual. Select "Check your own visa details with VEVO" and then simply fill in the information. http://www.immi.gov.au/Services/Pages/vevo/vevo-overview.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest101310 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Ive just done exactly as what you said but i got a message says that "The details entered could not be found please check the information you have entered is correct and try again" Im sure all information is 100% correct. I guess there is a problem with the website. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
