    Hello guys. Forgive me if medyo out of topic ang query ko, pero has anyone here been granted a 189 visa while in AU? Just wanna make sure kc bf happened to be here when he got his. The letter doesnt state any initial entry reqt so we assume it's good as in effect na?

    Will appreciate any response.

    @fedsquare I have read somewhere before na kung ano ang latest na visa na nagrant sayo un ang magta take effect. You just have to inform dun sa changes ng visa mo kung ano ang nangyari. Like kung naka TV si lover mo ngun may immiupdate dun and tell them the circumstance. Hope it helps :)

    @fedsquare Wala talaga nakalagay na initial entry date sa letter. I think automatic na in effect na yung visa. Yung sa medicare din dibp na nag-update sa medicare, nareceive na lang din kasi namin through mail yung green medicare card kapalit nung blue card (interim).
