Hi whitney,

Im wondering if you already received your visa?..

I sent my application to Ottawa and im wondering how long will it take to process our application..

Thanks

You do meet the requirements to be approved for permanent residency without waiting for the 2 year temporary visa however that is still up to the discretion of the case officer. If you are only...

Haha. I'd ring the AFP (or whoever you're getting the check from) and ask. They'll be able to give a straight answer and it's not immi so you probably won't have to spend 45 minutes on hold.

I am not a migration agent and don't have definite answers. This is just info that I do know and a bit of speculation. Ordinarily, if you are here on an ETA you are required to leave and re-enter...

It's messy any way you look at it. Good luck Bemmy and please let us know if you're successful. For what it's worth, I think that we should be held accountable for the things we have done but I don't...

We wrote ours like a story, not point form. But different people all put the relationship history together differently.

skitz - I think it's great that you want to be sure of your relationship before you migrate to Australia. I think most people who are separated from their partners and going through a long waiting...

And as a more straight forward answer to your question if your 309 is approved and you enter Australia as a temporary resident you are required to inform the DIAC if your relationship breaks down and...

And also, your partner only needs to complete a police check if you have minor children that will be migrating with you.

Don't be worried. Bring a book. I did mine onshore and it involved a lot of waiting. Hopefully yours is speedy and you are clear of any infectious diseases. :)

You will be required to provide the medical and police checks before your visa will be approved. If your visa is time sensitive you should start chasing them up as soon as you can.

From what you have shared, a PMV is your only option right now. The other partner visas both require you to have lived with your partner for 12 months before applying. The good news is that the...

I think they are only concerned about jail sentences of over 12 months so that's probably fine. If you'd like to know more use the search feature on this site to look up more threads with a similar...

As said, the work restrictions can be waived on the grounds that you have applied for a permanent visa. It is common and should be successful. Another note for the OP- Your WHV allows multiple...

WHV to 820/801 is really common so I wouldn't worry too much about it if I were you.
