Im with you Billy :confused: .
Ann Marie, when did you apply for your visa? I presume it was a spouse visa since Paul is an Aussie? :confused: |
Hubby here.
Her question is aimed at those that may have applied for a spouse visa and how long thier application took to process. We also have to register the kids as little aussie's. does anyone know how long these applications take ? She is dyslexic and sometimes struggles with her spelling and grammar but slowly getting there, at least she has started posting her own threads now lol. Now if only she would register under another name :mad: Paul. |

Now if only she would register under another name :mad: Paul. we had the kids turned into little aussies and it took a matter of weeks although it did say on the form it could be a couple of months. when i sent off the application they wanted to see the citizenship papers for the kids, hope this helps. |
Well she signed it Ann Marie, so we knew it was her, if you had stayed as Paul&AnnMarie it would have made more sense :p .
As for the visa, spouse visas are very quick, I think somewhere in the order of 6-8 weeks. Others will probably have more idea than me, especially those who actually applied in the UK. Billy is still hanging out for his :). Dont know about the kids, complete unknown. Pssssst, btw, I have never looked at toast the same way again! LOL ;) |

Originally posted by Luke I Amyofath I know people here have advised me to apply for visa while I am in uk, Im gonna apply next time Im back in OZ because the guy I spoke with at dimia in sydney told the misses that we could call him and set up a meeting and we would go for lunch while he checked the application, he said he would make a decision on the spot for married visa especially since I have an ozzie born toddler. Was this guy bullshitting ? He was very nice. it does sound a little unconventional, but who knows? |

Originally posted by bondipom They can make a decision on the spot but it depends on the attitude of the officer. It can take longer down under and the other risk is (which you have already bypassed) is at border entry. As long as you are of good character and healthy I cannot see there being a problem. Just get your application in before your visa expires. |

Good luck :) . |
Originally posted by bundy For the experience of friends, I think it very much does depend on the visa you are on when you enter Oz. Those on 3 month ETAs can have trouble and you are more likely to be put on a bridging visa without work rights, which is a pain in the bum. Got a mate in Sydney who has married an Aussie and applied for spouse visa onshore and is having no end of trouble. But then you have a kid, so this will help.... |
Originally posted by bondipom The bridging visa will have the work rights of the applicants current visa. |
Originally posted by bundy In other words, not on an ETA. |
