Skeelsy Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Has anybody got an editable Form 80 they can send me please? I have been sent one from my MA, and tried using the one on IMMI site, but each time, when I go to save it, only the form saves, and not the content, which is getting frustrating now! Please note, not tech savvy, so it may well be my system as MA has suggested - Thanks My SOH is IT savvy and he couldn't get form to do as it was 'told' so we went for the old fashion way, printed it out and used a quill - quite therapeutic. Then scanned and saved as jpg ready to send when requested. I roughly trotted up time spent on damn form x 3 as had to do one for our son as well - 7 x 8 hour days it took me approx and they will get it whether they request it or not after all the hard work.

Skeelsy Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 We're so near, we've got our case officer just waiting for them to request AOS money and then it's all systems go I hope. Quick question, how did you all pay your AOS? Maisie I read somewhere that immi is very fussy to ensure sponsor pays it and even went to extent of requesting bank statements to check money had not been transferred by parents to the sponsor so beware!

Please note, not tech savvy, so it may well be my system as MA has suggested - Thanks Alan, I did it the hard way because I couldn't work out a way to save it online. I printed out the form, filled it in by hand, bit by it, then scanned each page (luckily I have a printer that scans) then collated all the scanned pages into a single pdf doc. Put like that it sounds easy, but it wasn't, hence my many hysterical posts to this site at the time. However, long winded as it was, it worked and I got it done. There was no way I could have done it at one sitting, and having the hard copy in front of me was obscurely comforting. I also found the amount of detail requested unbelievable. I had been living in Belgium for part of the time with constant visits to my elderly and newly widowed mother in Wales, so remembering the dates of each visit was impossible. I just guessed most of the dates and wrote 'approximately' after each one. The trips to oz were easy because of visa and passport records but everything else I just put the closest likely dates with the overworked word 'approx' each time. It must have been okay because they accepted it. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeelsy Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Question - after Joop on 30 April am I really the next one on 23 May or is there someone between - trying to see good omen there as to might have been quiet time and immi will push through - ok ever the dreamer Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisher1 Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Well, if you end up down the south coast of NSW then my parents will be here too as you know. I know they would value having friends in similar situations! The idea of a forum thread is a good one too. I'm sure there will be lots of things that you discover on your immigration journey that others would find useful :cute: Hi Moomin weve just spent five days in kiama having a good look round and are more or less decided it's the place for us. We aren't planning to be moving out for a couple of years but will certainly be sending an email your way when we do! kath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had an old laptop I was able to access emails on, it worked for us :wink:, we had tried it first on the IMac and suffered the same fate as you.

Kim Hi Kim, I transferred money into our sons account and he went to centre link the next day to pay, no probs. They only seem interested in checking they meet the financial criteria.

Sadge Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 My daughter is in Kingsbury, north-east of Melbourne, so I'm expecting to settle somewhere in that area. Anybody moving anywhere near? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maisiedaisy Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 hi Maisie Your daughter will be asked to open an account with the Commonwealth Bank and lodge the money. Costs 300AUd to open but interest paid on the money.They then inform Centrelink and Immi. Hope this helps. Joyron Really, I thought it could just be paid into the Commonwealth Bank with a bankers cheque what a pain! Thanks Joyron Maisie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Calmac, Ooooh - Preston Market - fantastic. I was amazed at the number of vegetables that I'd never seen before. As a vegetarian I'm going to be in my element! What is your lodgement date?
