There's nothing you need to do, so you can relax and settle into life in Australia. If you are now on a 309 visa, then 2 years from the date you lodged your application you can submit updated relationship information in order to be assessed for the 100 (PR) visa. There's no separate fee to be paid for this, you just provide them new information from the last 2 years so they can assess that your relationship is still ongoing and genuine.

ghaffarahmed Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 My wife applied for spouse visa on 22th April 2015, Interview was done in May, Additional documents provided in June 2015 and embassy informed that it is ready for final decision back in Sep 2015. Since then, no update. On enquiry, they refused visitor visa after long wait of 5 months. This is my second marriage, Does this matter for grant? Also, my wife has previous visa refusal from a different country, should this matter? I have waited for 8 months, really missing my wife and planning to visit back to pakistan for a month. This visit will cost me around 15K in terms of lost salary, double expenses etc . Sometimes, i think i should have waited another 2-3 months so that they can make decision. But again, i have seen people waiting for more than 12 moths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But again, i have seen people waiting for more than 12 moths. I am in same boat as you. This is my first marriage and had no visa refusal for my wife DOL 30/12/2014. Waiting would no have made difference I was married in mid sep 2014 and applied in December so I can provide evidence for financial support and contact while a part. Our file did not get opened until sep 2015 requested further documents which were provided within 4 days. My wife had second interview start of November 2015. since than no update except phone operator told it is in queue for decision. Few days ago I applied for visitor visa but it will mos likely get refused. I have booked a trip to Pakistan for mid January since AHC Islamabad has shown such good attitude when asking for updates on case. All we can do is wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghaffarahmed Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 That seems very strange that you are waiting for 13 months. There need to be reason for this delay. Why they interviewed second time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
