faisi10 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Decision officer is always Aussie guys so off course he/she will have to go back in her country to celebrate the Xmas so they must got atleast one week before to Australia so if there will no decision office then off course no case is going to be finalized so i think visa grants are gonna come after Xmas which means January because they will start working properly from 2nd of January , so lets pray that u guys get grants in day or two otherwise it will be pending until 2013 males can go to deep sleep and can awake in mid jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Zeeshu Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Seems like AHC is asleep and not granting any visas....i submitted my documents on the 5th and yet no reply from them....everything is done from my end am just waiting for the visa...they got my medicals in the end of november, I dunno whats taking so long for the decision making...I am in sydney with my husband these days and my visa is expiring next month so i was hoping if i could get my visa right now then I could get my tickets changed and get my passport stamped from NZ but looks like they are gonna take their time..anyone knows how much time it takes to get a NZ visa from sydney while i am on a tourist visa in sydney??? Roughly 10-15 days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adnanm Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Just a speculation sco will be on leave, many take leaves after Christmas season to avoid cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exodus Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Hi guys, I found this thread on spouse visas and thought it would be best to ask my question here. Anyone who could assist, please provide some information as i am planning of applying at the end of December I am an australian permanent resident and will be sponsoring my fiance to who I will be getting married in a week. The problems we are facing are as follows: I have a child from a lady and I pay child support. my question was, do I need to declare a de facto relationship even if I havent been living with her. I know the kid is in question here and I am not questioning that part of it. The lady and I were not in a relationship and got involved a few years ago when I had not stepped into Australia. She got pregnant and told me about it only a few months later. I got to australia and BANG......she tells me about child support.. which i dont have any regrets or issues with. I lived at her place for a few days as I wanted to spend time with the child but not as a couple. She was aware that I will be getting married soon so there was no doubt of me misleading her or trying to do the unethical. We did not share our finances ot any domestic chores. I moved out and have been living on my own since.... so, now that you guys have a slight background.... Do I have a declare a de facto relationship.... I spoke to immigration but received mixed answers... They said dont declare it as a relationship if you think its not but attach a cover letter explaining the entire situation..... Any bits or pieces of information would be highly appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any bits or pieces of information would be highly appreciated. Thanks In my humble opinion, you should declare about the child and your previous stating current situation. a cover letter will do fine for you. As kid is not in your custody and will not be part of the application so it would be fine for you just to declare the previous relationship. A good RMA can advise you better, just in case if you will support or sponsor your kid in future than it would be a good idea to mention him/her on application and cover letter. you are not in DE-Facto relation ship because its over now and you are just supporting the baby. I am sure Senior members from UK will correct me if I am wrong. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musmanasghar Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 can u tell me.wht is the prossesing time after medical and other requirment submted? No one can tell you the time line other than AHC which is also beyond AHC control. As MADA said its 6-9 Months of total processing time for FEMALE regardless of when u submited medical and no timeline for Male applicant but you can keep 12-15 Months in mind for MALE applicants.
