JD3006 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Hi I received notification of Tasmania sponsoring my 489 visa back in November 2017, I was then invited via Skill select to apply and pay for the visa which I did (13 Nov 2017) I now have an Immi Account where I can upload documents, apply for medical ( applied and passed ) and other things. I have uploaded all Docs apart from UK police check as I need to put down a Case Officer name on the UK police application. I have not yet heard anything from a "Case Officer" would I get an email from somebody i.e "Hi my name is Joe Blogs and I'm your case officer.. I will need documents A, B, C etc etc" ?? Im a bit concerned I haven't had any emails or notifications via Immi Account since 13 Nov 2016.. is this normal ? Many Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rammygirl Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Never heard anyone needing to put a case officer name on a police check form. We certainly didn’t and many people do them without having a CO. Are you sure you are applying for the right police check? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the paper version it states that you can supply a COs name if you wish so the check can be sent direct to them. Australia doesn't work like that, the check has to go to you, for you to uplad. Therefore you do not need the details of the CO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
