And i wish i m wrong, and everyone gets visa granted soon. 309 a temporary should be granted under 6 months and may take time for 100 but immigration knows better what to do. Just to update that new policy has reduced skilled PR visas but Family visas are not affected. The new policy of govt just announced 2 days back so don’t worry Family visas will continue as it was and no restrictions settling in Australia as they have done for student and skilled to move to regional areas.

Its bit technical to understand. Number of family visa applications increase every year. Target for 2017-2018 was around 50,000 ( or 60,000 i forgot exact), however by blocking partner visas last two months they only granted 39,799 partner visas far less than planned target of 50,000. New target for parter visa has been set 39,799 which may looks same to many. And that's what they are promoting that their is no change. If don't want to go in technicality, then look at processing time of each months will be keep going up for not issuing enough visa. Also new policy is worse but as Government announced it seems as this for year starting in july 2019-onwards. So mostly people applied in 2018 will not be affected much or if any they will still be on ahead of line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahmad Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Hi All, Gudinace required. DOL: 11-6-18 generic email- 13 December 2018 submission of docs: 22 jan 2019 DOI: 25th March 2019. Very simple questions DOB and future plans in Australia We have been asked to submit 2x 888 decleacarion forms filled by Australian permanent residents or citizens. We did not submit these before because the form says if applicant is living outside Australia and does not know anyone Australian resident or citizen then any one who knows they applicant can fill up the form. This is what we did and submitted 2 declartions from Pakistan. Now they have asked specifically to submit these. Can someone guide us what should we do? Because the form also asks question how long you been know the applicant but if the applicant never came to Australia that is tough and we don’t have any relatives here. Would be thankful for any guidance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sadia Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 In my partner visa my father is also included as a dependent family Visa form 47A as he is the last member of my family here and he is almost 80 years old Masha Allah My question is that Is the processing time for me is still the same for partner visa 90% 14-20 Months or because of my father it will take even longer in processing time than that? If some one knows and kindly answer me please Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the people who guided us did suggest to submit the 888 form ( filled and signed by two Australian citizens or PR holders - so my husband got these filled from his friends and housemates that knew about our relationship & were also invited to our marriage ) . If you know anyone that you have invited to your marriage ( such as old work colleagues or friends in Australia) then you can get these forms filled and signed by them . Hope this helps . Keep me in prayers DOL 9-6-18 ( still waiting , last correspondence on 6-12-18 ) . I did update my application ( contact history and hubbys payslips plus family pictures in February 2019 ) .

These people can be your friends or family. They may know “either of you but should know that you are genuinely into this relationship” and that you got married to the applicant. this was the e-mail i received from AHC when i asked clarification in this matter. See the quoted one. Thanks MnMA. You are right I called the immi this morning and they advised the same that it is ok if the declarant knows only one of you and can comment that you are married to the applicant and relationship is genuine. I appreciate your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrs_saeed Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 I would appreciate if someone could tell how much time immigration gives to make initial entry after grant?

What should I assume by this , slightly worried Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
