We've changed the date of our travel (free of charge at the moment) as it's too big a gamble for us, can't afford to lose that money. My flight is mid June so will wait a bit longer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SusieRoo Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 1 hour ago, Kathss56 said: Can you change date for later in the year maybe best option. Everything changes daily and rapidly so they may let you cancel eventually. Qantas gave me a credit voucher for full amount valid until Mar next year With BA we can change dates without additional cost, but only within a 12 months window from the date we originally booked. And unfortunately we have already changed date once (due to our house sale) and we now only have a few weeks of this window left. So, not really any point now, but I do think we may be able to make a claim on our insurance. I also noticed BA has has quadrupled the price in the last week. I guess we just have to be thankful we still feel healthy at the moment and spare a thought for others not so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaH27 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Is it true that it is only permanent residents that are now being allowed into Australia - ie people with various visitor visas like e651 and 600 are now being denied entry? That should make it easier for everybody’s insurance claim if that true? I don’t want to go now - flight is mid June Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimboslice Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 @Alan Collett if a 143 has been granted are we a resident from that date or do you have to land to activate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question is, will they be allowed to enter the country, or does their 143 visa not count as "permanent" because it hasn't been activated yet?

Anks Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Hi All, I think @Alan Collett already mentioned about this but for everyone who are planning to lodge a 870 long stay parent visa before applying for 143 should read the latest update in the auto response from the parents mailbox. My interpretation is that if you apply for 870 or have an 870 prior to applying for 143 (if thats what someone is willing to do) then you are not eligible, people who have already applied for 143 and have an acknowledgement from the dha would not be affected.

Yes, that's right - there's what is called a Schedule 1 (equals time of application) requirement whereby the holder of an 870 visa cannot apply for the other parent visas. That doesn't stop people applying for the 870 visa and a 143 concurrently - but what you can't do is lodge the 870 application, have the 870 visa granted, and then apply for a 143 . I've written a blog on this too, at the Go Matilda Parent Visas website. Best regards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s best to have your visa in your hand, I’m sure there will be a date extension if it goes on for months. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
