I don't want this to cause the delay of my application, I'm on my 8th-week from the date of my application; but has not received any request from DIBP. It is not part of the required documents that need to be submitted (from immiaccount) so I assumed that's not part of the application; though I read from Shash121's comment that he/she has been requested for its submittal.

But they asked mine beforehand but I think its up to the case officer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
