I can't believe it - after eight months and one week, my VISA HAS BEEN GRANTED! I had notified RM when I got my ETA several weeks ago that I'd be heading to Australia January 6. She didn't respond at the time. So on January 1 I e-mailed her a polite reminder that I'd be leaving for Australia the following week. Two days later.. BAM. VISA GRANTED. I can't tell you guys what a relief this is. My fiance and his parents and I were all together when I received it - it's been a giant hug/cryfest. I was so worried I wouldn't be approved with all the medical stuff I have - sailed right through. I provided letters from specialists, and DIBP didn't ask for anything further.

OH MY GOSH... I'm still shaking. SO HAPPY. :)

Just so you know, you can take a little time to upload all your documents, you don't have to do them all at once :)

We applied 1.5 weeks ago and I'm still uploading a little each day. Still waiting on some form 888s too. The man at immigration told me there is no time limit, but just get it done in a few weeks as a guide :)

Hi, I am new here and I know how you have been an inspiration to many by your knowledge and advices. I am a Filipina and wanting to apply for PMV. My question is, where will I have to lodge my application? Is it here in the Philippines? Congrats to you and I know you deserve your PMV.

Congratulations to you... I will be lodging my PMV by April (hopefully) I am still very much in doubt on the steps to do it. I am just praying I will be able to accomplish all requirements. Good Luck to your new life.
