If it is showing "finalised" in the main sheet then it is the case. CO rarely updates "Documents Checklist" page so you should not rely on whatever status it shows there.

fabregas Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Bro .. Has your CO requested for any additional info (form 80 related etc.) lately? No..The last document he asked was on 2nd April 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mext60 Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I have a query, my younger brother who was a student in Pakistan last year when I lodged my application, has now moved to Australia on Student Visa 537. Does this qualify as a change in circumstance? Do I need to inform my CO about this? Any thoughts/ opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While as per main sheet of online status health requirement were finalised 1st of July 2013. Any suggestion where I am standing now. Hi, my case is in same status, my kid medicals are finalized only but our medicals are still showing required status. I think because child medical examination is very simple so it does not take much time to check but elders have xray and blood samples etc so it take more time to finalize. I hope we will get good news in couple of days. please share you detailed timelines. thanks. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this qualify as a change in circumstance? Do I need to inform my CO about this? Any thoughts/ opinions? Bro, i think you only need to inform about your own changes of circumstances if there is. Examples of a change in circumstances include: new job new passport new member of your family discovery of incorrect information in your application change of address or contact details. For more details please have a look at this link. http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/general-skilled-migration/change-of-circumstances.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO you will have to wait atleast 1.5 months more before getting PCC call, or you can front load it as well.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bank balance is almost zero now Don't worry brother, everything will be fine In sha Allah. You will get a security job for the time being. very soon. I think it is always better to leave family back home if you do not have a job sorted before coming, otherwise, you are just spending from your hard-earned savings just to get started, which is not wise. Indeed, Australia is an expensive country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cognos Man Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Hi Fari, InshaAllah! You will get lots of opportunities very soon. Ramadan prayers will work, Aameen. Food for thought! Have you considered getting premium account on LinkedIn? Do you think something like freelance referrals for different jobs will work for you? Can I suggest you to get active on LinkedIn group discussions? If possible write an article about something. Let’s say “Job Market in Middle East vs OZ” (haha I hope I don’t sound unwise) Main idea is to get noticed by people over there. InshaAllah! You will strike a good idea yourself and opportunities will follow. Best of luck, ICT Business Analyst | Visa: 176 SS(WA) Applied MAY2012 | Form80 sent JUN2012 | Waiting..

ozmigrate Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Hello Friends, I've been an avid visitor of this forum, particularly this never-ending-thread for quite some time now. Indeed it has been very helpful to me so far. First of all, a big THANK YOU to all of you for contributing your valuable time in helping others including me. My visa application timeline is as below (Shoaib, please take note in your Excel sheet ): ACS: 13-Jun-2011 175 Applied: 29-Jun-2011 CO Allocated: 03-Mar-2012 Form 80: 20-Mar-2012 Additional Info: 02-Apr-2012 Med: Waiting PCC: Waiting Grant: Waiting With the above timeline, and based on the experiences of fellow applicants I've been following in this forum, I was expecting the med/pcc call any day now. However, today our CO has asked us to submit the Form-80 again, with up-to-date information!! What does this mean? I have travelled to a few countries since I submitted the form-80 last time. If I update something in Form-80 this time, is it going to prolong my visa processing time further?? I'm getting so frustrated with all of this, especially when I'm seeing some of my friends who applied more than a year after me already got their grants under the new EOI based process (a friend from Pakistan got his 189 visa in 7 months only!). And in my case, as if the 16 months of background checks (and 25 months of total waiting time) were not enough, they are requesting Form 80 again. Nonsense. Its really annoying.

thinktank Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 It means probably that your checks are near to an end, but again this is our speculation only and nothing concrete. Just fill in the details they require and wait. You can do nothing more than this. Enjoy waiting :wink: like all of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHEN EOI was coming there were speculations that rules will be tougher but it turns out opposite, so dont feel that much annoying, you will get this one, Our one old age memeber (shawais) waiting for so long, but he will write the last line of his story in a week or so, so be patient and stick around, do normal life things and forget about you application Chill out!!!

Official welcome to the forum bro Timeline added in the time sheet. Please don't hide anything in the form 80. One doesn't know what DIAC/ASIO check in the SC but what they claim is the checking of those particular which were valid at the time of application. Additional info is most of time is a good thing. Based on the estimation of time sheet, you can expect your medical/pcc call in two months. Best of luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rehanonline83 Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Friends, I haven't been told by my CO to go for PCC yet but considering my CO allocation date, I have told my father to process my PCC from Pakistan (I am in KSA at the moment). My father lodged PCC application on my behalf. Today i got the PCC but it has a stamp on it stating that "This Certificate is being issued in absence of the applicant". Theoretically this stamp shouldn't create any problem coz i am not in Pakistan. What about practical scenario, can it cause any issue? Please assist Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
