It will be funny when they update and its somewhere after the 2nd of July though. I don't think any of us will be sad if the update is later than we predict, but going by DIAC's last several updates, it is a good guess. Personally, I hope they have passed 13 July so I can submit an enquiry... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wei Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I just received my pre-grant before lunch (from Team 6 :biggrin:). Below is my timeline: ACS: 11/08/11, Visa lodged: 25/08/11, CO/Pregrant: 29/03/12 BTW, where can I find step-by-step instructions on evidencing my visa at an Australian overseas mission? Cheers.

Guest rocking adi Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) Congrats Wei on your Pre-grant letter! The process is simple, you need to send your travel details to your CO advising when are you leaving the country inorder for them to give you the grant letter. Once you receive the grant letter you can come back on E-visa i.e. the email which your CO sends in stating you have been granted VE 175. Or can get it evidenced in the country where you are planning to leave. Make sure you give your CO at least 5 working days to give you the grant. I went to NZ/Auckland, and the visa was evidenced by the authority on the very same day in and out in 15 mins but that all depends on the case load, sometime it might take couple of days to get it evidenced once you have the grant letter. Hope that helps Cheers Adi I just received my pre-grant before lunch (from Team 6 :biggrin:).

Guest rocking adi Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) Hey SHandGH, I did not get a chance to explore NZ as I was on a very tight schedule, just got the leave for 4 days from work. So once the visa was granted all I did, I went to the Australian Embassy and got the visa evidenced and was back to base Don't worry you would do great, there is a saying " The flavour of all the good things is experienced the most when it is unplanned :)" Cheers Adi Thanks. No clue what to do after we get the grant. Was not expecting things to move so quickly. Don't know when, where, how. I'm sure I'm not alone. How was NZ? Where did you visit? Would love to see NZ some day. Edited March 29, 2012 by rocking adi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wei Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Thanks Adi. I probably will go to NZ/Auckland. Do I need to book an appointment with the Australia Consulate General before I go? Cheers.

bloomberg Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 hey guys, just one quick question if someone has time to reply.. I'm a June (21st),2011 applicant, all documents were submitted (PCCs & Medicals), ABPF since February 29th,2012, still not a single word from a CO and tomorrow will bring a new update.. so, my question is - do you think will I be contacted by CO soon?! If the update moves for just one day it would still mean that I was contacted by CO - but till now, I wasn't, nor our agent.. If no one contacts us till tomorrow late morning, should we contact DIAC? I'm not sure if this makes any scence, but I couldn't find here (PIO) if someone was in the similar situation as we are.. Thank you!! :wubclub: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
