MrsW27 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 The worst is everyone you know asking when and if you've heard something. Like as if we're not already going crazy!?! Has anyone else found this to be one of the, if not the most, annoying part of being right near the end? Yep. Absolutely everybody. All the time. For the past 8 months. Same for husband in Melbourne - drives us both crazy! But then I guess they only mean well! Definitely feeling your frustration though! :arghh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jane2403 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Its good to hear a lot of people applied before the partner visa price increased. £2500 for a partner visa is soo expensive. Its going to take months for us to save that then a further 12-14months to have it approved. Hopefully I will be posting on here when my partners eventually gets approved.

Send it before the weekend (Oz time). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronyaur Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Confusion on this one. Does one have to wait 2 years from grant of 309 visa to get the 100 or 2 years from first lodgement of 309? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronyaur Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Thats the confusing part, im sure someone will come along and clarify for me. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozmaniac Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 The 2 years starts from the date of APPLICATION for the 309. About 3 months before the 2 year mark, you are (or should be) contacted by DIBP for evidence that the relationship is still intact and the permanent visa usually comes a few months after that. For the people who will currently be waiting for 12-15 months for their 309s/820s, that means that they will probably have their 100/801 permanent visa 12 months or even less after the grant of the 309/820.

So we should keep saving all our evidence both UK side and when we get to Australia up to the final stage. Thanks for your input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
