Re: Documents met but IELTS question
To avoid paying the Secondary Charge, your now 18 yo daughter will need to show that she has functional english.
Its a Time of Decision criteria (even though its Sch 1).
Passport from UK is sufficient, IELTS Test above 4.5 in all categories. Otherwise you will be up for a mere $3510 prior to them granting you visa.
cheers

What is Sch 1
But at the time of lodgement she was 17 yrs, and I was told DIAC consider the situation with regard to age,experience, qualification ect ect at the time of lodgement.

* Online status could be change anytime
* If second installment is compulsion they will mail you by that time you can prove that she was 17 at the time of application

Re: Documents met but IELTS question
Its a great relief ,
Should I wait until they mail me for the second installment or tell the CO upfront that she wat 17 at the time of lodgement therefore IELTS is not required.

Even in my case he asked for PCC for my wife from Nigeria - She never travelled even I am not married that time - So I send her passport copies and explained.
So you can wait unless CO is asked for it

Unless its asked you cannot assume that CO is going to make mistake. Am I right?
