Mohager Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Hi All I have granted visa 489 since July 2016, I have moved to Australia in November 2017 and now preparing to apply for 887 in Nov 2019, I am planning to do lodgment by myself, so guys I need your help: 1- I started the application and reached 95% of the progress bar, at what point it will ask me to attach any documents? 2- Can I update/attach any more documents after submitting the application? 3- can I submit documents for 18-month residency ( as per now ) and complete the other docs later on, as long as process time takes too long? 4- after application lodgment, can I move to any capital city ( non- regional) ? , or I need to stay till I got the PR ( 887 ) ? Your answers will be highly appreciated Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaggieMay24 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Usually the link to upload documents only appears after you submit the application and pay the application fees. It's generally a good idea to upload the essential documents needed for proving you meet the criteria as soon as possible after you submit your application. So if you only have 18 months residency evidence, it would be good to gather the remaining 6 months evidence quickly so you can upload it before too much time elapses. While the 887 is processing, you still hold the 489 visa and you must comply with the conditions of that (live/work only in a regional area). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetBlast Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 You shouldn't apply now as you're not eligible. They will reject the application. You should wait until you meet the criteria. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mohager Posted May 23, 2019 Author Share Posted May 23, 2019 Thanks MaggieMay24 and JetBlast for your valuable feedback I have one more question regarding the English level. I have submitted ELITES results for me and my wife ( 6.5 & 7) as a part of 489 visa doc. , Should I submit any other docs to prove our English level as a part of 887 application? ( our ELITES certificates already expired ) ? or we can prove that we studied in 5 years institution in English is enough?

JetBlast Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I believe you don't need to provide documentation in regard to English for the 887 visa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mohager Posted June 11, 2019 Author Share Posted June 11, 2019 After you fulfill Visa 489 conditions ( 2 years in a regional area AND one year at least full-time work ) you will be eligible to apply for 887 visa. during the processing time, your 489 will be valid till its expiry date, on the same date you will receive the bridging visa automatically. Wish you all the best mate : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
