Marilyn Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 @ramot I emailed my documents and got an auto reply like the normal ones when we do the "TEST" except this one was from PVC Team 1 and it said "This email is your confirmation that we received your email and/or your emailed documents" Their request to me was to send by email and to reply to the same email address requesting additional documents. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So clearly backlog is clearing We’ve just had our acceptance letter. The whole AOS process has taken us 10 1/2 months! I wonder if Centrelink delays have contributed to the lengthening wait and failure to grant the number of permitted parent visas each year. I appreciate that increased numbers are the main reason for the longer processing time One little snippet of information that I have gleaned recently is regards the length of validity of the medicals. I’ve been panicking as we’re less than a month away from the anniversary of ours. According to our migration agent IMMI have the discretion to extend the valid period from 12 to 18 months. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might have something to suit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would already have most of what they need from your previous application etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They provided one way coverage. I can’t remember if I had to declare if I was an Australian resident. I obviously was up until I left but I was leaving permanently so..... sorry I can’t remember more details. They had quite a selection of covers for various situations from memory and I could have as many weeks cover once I landed as I needed, within reason, cannot remember the maximum limit. Hopefully you’ll find something suitable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we also received the auto reply when we emailed team 1. Due to the high volume of emails received etc. unable to respond to enquires etc. This mail box is used for correspondence for parent visas that have been assessed and being currently processed. So I think that is hopeful!!? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marilyn Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 @Peter2Based on the tracking sheet, it could be between 1 to 3 months before the 2nd VAC is requested: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qdUJtvi43-4Ma76iDQWtT3Dv2KK4HxA1lvQzeAB2MOE Peter it looks like someone has deleted column A so all the names have gone. sheet for 173 and 173 to 143 are okay.

Marilyn Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 @LindaH27Yes I saw that at 5:59am! I see also another sheet has been added "Sheet 4" so I am thinking it could be someone not to familiar with Excel. I really hope it can be fixed - certainly if the error had been spotted straight away by Anonymous they could have just clicked the reverse button and the error would have fixed itself.

LindaH27 Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 @Marilyn Mine is saved in my Drive app as I thought it would be safer (obviously not) and it actually does show who and when it was edited - I don’t know whether that shows in just the google doc ? Such a shame as I’m sure @Peter2 worked so hard to set it up! Hopefully if everybody can check the dates and maybe re insert their names - having said that I’m not too sure I would know exactly how to do it !!

Marilyn Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 (edited) @LindaH27 I have inserted the column for Username so all that is needed is to type user name in column A no need to do anything else. Hopefully Peter has it saved somewhere else and can just copy and add the names if he did it very recently.

rajk Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Hi All any update please for CPV 143 , i lodged my parents application on 4th oct 2015 ,still haven't heard any thing yet, no medical request nothing yet !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter2 Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Thanks @LindaH27 and @Marilyn. The data has been restored to previous state. I'll try my best to restore the data that has been added after this version. Part of the reason that I leave this publicly editable because I would prefer to have everyone contribute and I may not have time to monitor all the discussion to gather data. I'm not sure if there is any other better option, but Google sheet can restore data to previous date if anything like this happen again. If anyone don't want their name included, please feel free to remove it or let me know. I'll respect your privacy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter2 Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 OK, I can't find any noticeable change. The data is restored back to April 12 version. If you added anything after that date, please verify. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LindaH27 Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Immi have only asked people in August 2015 to start providing documents. For October 2015 applications it will probably be another few months before you hear anything. But as the end of their financial year is end June it’s possible all visas have already been allocated and no new ones issued till July. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
