Ā Thanks in advance Ā i am afraid that you cant use visitor visa like that. your wife may get visitor visa but she can not come back once it expires straight away. still better to speak with your MA.

alap Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 well first you need to state reason for visitor visa for first time.. she may get minimum 3 months of visitor visa and once it expires she has to go back.. here she can apply for visitor visa again with a valid reason. this is a gray area.. my friend told me that immi told him that her spouse is using this visa to stay with him for long.. she can only stay with him for long by permanent visa. visitor visa is for visitors not intending to stay long... so she may get visitor visa for once but getting visa again for 2nd time is bit doubtful. thats why i asked you to speak with MA. i am just telling you on basis of my friend's experience.

MaggieMay24 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 AFAIK, the 187 can be approved regardless of whether you're onshore or overseas. So if you wife comes to visit you on a visitor visa, she would simply move onto the 187 once it's granted. Since you already have the 187 in processing, you may be able to ask DIBP to grant her a longer visitor visa but this is of course decided on a case by case basis.

Freddy Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Hi guys, new to the Forums. I have a question, My nomination has been submitted 26th July, However, so far there's no sign of nomination fee has been took from my credit card. Is it normal? Because My Visa application was logged 30th July, they took the fees right away. Also, is anyone know how to check nomination applicaiton status? I see nothing about nomination from my Immigration account website but visa application received. Thank you very much. wish all of us will get the visa smoothly.

klk1989 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Hi there guys. I am quite new to this forum and after a few clicks on the forum, I have a question regarding to RCB processing time. My MA had submitted my RCB through Perth's RCB on the 16th of July. As of today(23th of September) we have not heard any news from the RCB. My MA did sent them an email but the their response was this ->Dear Sir/Madam, Ā Ā Thank you for your email. Ā Ā Applications for certification advice for the Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme are assessed in order of receipt. Ā Ā Please visit http://www.migration.wa.gov.au/services/regional-sponsored-migration-scheme for up to date processing times in working days. Ā Ā Ā Now this bring me to another question from any members who have been through this, can I do a nomination and lodgement for 187 visa at the same time prior to my RCB being approved? As I am running out of time. My Temporary Visa 485 ends this November. It is quite frustrating that they took more than 2 months and have not got a reply from the RCB team in Perth. Ā Many thanks.

klk1989 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Hi guys. I have applied my RCB application to the State Government of WA through my MA on the 16th of July but we have not heard an answer from them till this date 24th of September. I am just wondering, if is possible to not wait for the RCB to get approved and proceed with nomination and lodgement of 187 visa? Its because my temporary visa ends this November. I do appreciate your help in giving me some advice before I proceed doing the nomination/lodgement of 187 visa. Thank you in advance!

psaus Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Hello guys This is a answer for above queries 1. There is no fee that immigration charges for the nomination,that is why a lot of people apply nomination and visa separate,so that they don't waste money and apply visa after a positive response from nomination! 2.medicals have nothing to do with the processing times, you are eligible to go for medicals as soon as you apply for visa so don't keep wondering that when you are done with medicals and you'll be processed in a week.its just to save the time. 3.if you have applied nomination and visa together and your nomination is approved,don't hesitate to give a call to immi after 20-30 days of your nomination approval A lot of times they misplace the files so its better to remind them. Hope this helps Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchuckles Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Finally got my case office and they asked for medicals and some other info. Those were completed last week (Weds). Any idea how long it usually takes from that point (have already waited over 5 months so far). Ā When I log in to Immi Online it shows the medical info has been received fine.
