Update on my 138 Australian Sponsored
Hello all,
I started a thread yesterday cause i wasnt sure if i had to plan a validation trip or not. I didnt get many replies from u guys but anyway, I wanted to share this with you... Everyone looooves a bit of DIMIA info!
My great and lovely agent contacted dimia by email and thats what she wrote:
Dear X,
I refer to previous correspondence and in particular to the primary applicants withdrawal of the secondary applicant from her application.
I have still not yet received any confirmation from your office of this change in circumstances being recorded.
Would you kindly revert by email as soon as possible.
The applicant is concerned that the validity of her Health and Character checks are soon to expire and that you may make a decision which requires the applicant to enter Australia to validate her visa close to the Christmas period. Ms. (thats me) is concerned that should this occur, she will have difficulty in obtaining flights and may be forced to pay expensive airfares due to the holiday season.
Therefore it would be appreciated if you were able to make a decision within the near future, if not, it may be necessary to request further Police and Character checks or to extend the validity of those currently held on file so to enable the primary applicant to enter Australia after the holiday Christmas season to validate her visa – if you decide to grant the visa.
Thank you for your assistance.
Yours faithfully,
And, you wanna know their reply???
Dear Ms X,
The file has not been allocated to a case officer yet. As it is within the
50 week processing stated in the acknowledgement letter i cannot give you
any further information regarding as to when it will be allocated, assessed
or finalised.
Thankyou
Soooo, i still dont know what to do, but don't we all???
I just wanted to keep you informed about my case. Let me know if you have any question!

Hey marco!!!! wellll, to tell you the truth, when i opened the mail from my lawyer i wondered for a while because she said: this is the reply i got from Dimia !!!
I have actually frontloaded because i was in OZ and my ex had already done them in september. lets just wait and see!
I actually have a job in Switzerland at the moment, + a canadian boyfriend (why the hell isnt he an Aussie!!!) and i cant leave before april next year!
I dont know how long i have to wait before booking my holiday ( i want to go to Montreal for 2 weeks in Nov) - cause if my visa comes thru. But my medicals and PCC expire mid november!!!!
Argggghhhh this is annoying!

I am currently talking to my agent. Redoing the meds is going to be cheaper than a validation trip. but i just have to wait and see!
Have a great day.
