CO Ready to Finalise Offshore Partner Visa

Hi everyone!

I am here in Australia on a Tourist Visa habang naghihintay sa resolution ng Offshore partner Visa application ko.

And praise God! Nag.email na ang CO ko na I need to depart Australia because she is ready to finalise my partner visa application.

I am just wondering, once na.inform ang CO when ang departure date ko from Australia, automatic ba na magbibigay siya ng decision? Or are there cases na aabot pa rin ng 1 week or more? I need to know para alam ko ilang weeks ako kailangan nasa Pinas para din ma.ibook ung return flight ko.

I hope may makapag.share ng experiences nila as soon as possible.

Thanks in advance friends! :)

10-May-14: lodged offshore Partner VISA (subclass 309) online
3-Jun-14: Lodged a 3-month VISITOR (subclass 600) VISA application
13-Jun-14: Visitor VISA grant
25-Jun-14: contacted by CO for additional documents

3-Sep-14: Applied for a 3-month visitor VISA extension (as my VISA will expire on 28th Sep)
5-Sep-14: Visitor Visa extension grant date – (Sept 28-Dec 28, 2014)
3-Dec-14: Received an email from CO stating that I have to depart Aus because a decision was ready to be given
7-Dec-14: Back in the Phils
11-Dec-14: Partner VISA grant
23-Dec-14: Flight to Aus

Waiting period: 7 Months (Praise God! ^_^)

My hubby and I have been attending Hillsong Church Melbourne city campus since Feb 2014 and I am loving it! If you’re new here in Mebourne or you have been here for a long time but you haven’t yet found a church where you feel a sense of belongingness, we can go to church together! ^_^ Let us know!

God is awesome all the time! ;)
