KitCat Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Hi everyone, My partner (British citizen) and I applied for the 309 partner visa offshore from London in October 2018- it was granted in May 2019 and we moved to Sydney in Aug 2019. We've just submitted the 100 application onshore for permanent residency as it has been 2 years since our original application- did anyone else do the same this year/last year and mind letting me know how long the processing took? Was hoping it would be a relatively quick process but sounds like it could take another 12-18 months? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These were taking a long time to process (12 -18 months), however, they have been moving much quicker of late. I have had a number processed in a few weeks lately.

KitCat Posted November 12, 2020 Author Share Posted November 12, 2020 Thanks Raul! Hopefully it doesn’t take 12-18 months then- we are kicking ourselves for not waiting an additional couple of months to apply, as we would have then qualified for both 309/109 together.

Belfastchild Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 HI KitCat, did you go through the same process for this stage or is there a shorter way to get it done? I am about to start my 100 but it looks like they want all evidence similar to the first part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KitCat Posted November 18, 2020 Author Share Posted November 18, 2020 Hi Belfastchild, It is unfortunately the same application- however the supporting evidence and requirements is a bit lighter (no health checks, less attachments required). We also treated the evidence as just for the period since the last application was submitted rather than our whole relationship- so joint bank statements, social media, bills etc for the last two years only rather than our whole relationship. No word yet on our application (was submitted 5/10) so hopefully we handled it correctly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belfastchild Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 how many stat decs did you do for this part? I did 6 last time but feel bad asking people again, they're a pain in the ass for people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
