Hi everyone!
I have just joined this forum and I am amazed at how fast the visa granting for others are. Congratulations. On this light, I would like to ask your help regarding my issues on my visa application.
My husband and I (dependent) applied for a visa 189, lodged last Feb 27, received a contact from our case officer (Adelaide) last March 31. She asked for several documents such as police clearance / offshore police clearance certificates, medical, form 80, payslips, English Cert (for dependent).
Question: Should we just attach a scanned colour copy of the original police clearance certificates or should we send the original police clearance certificates issued from us (Philippines, Singapore, France, Kuwait, HK) by POST to the dept in Australia? What is the procedure normally?
Our case officer is also requesting for an offshore police clearance certificate; is it different from a normal police clearance certificate issued by any country?
We are also given 28 days to respond to her email, does that mean that we are only given 28 days to complete all the documents she requested from us? We can not not update our immi account as "request completed" until we have everything right?
Apology for asking a lot 🙂 Thank you and I would appreciate your help on this matter.
