thanks guys..
do you think i need to go for a PDOS? if i'm on a partnership visa but classified as 309
what do you think?
yes you need PDOS, 309 defacto din ako and nag PDOS din ako sa CFO
If foreign husband or Pinoy but Australian citizen, you just need to book for counseling seminar. They start early in the morning cuz limited lng ang counselling. Then after the seminar they will issue a certicate, if may visa na they will attach the emigrant sticker in your passport as well. Ang pdos namn po, is for emigrant n pinoy ang asawa like, PR cia, for pinoys who are granted a skilled migrant. You wont be issue any certificate (correct me if im wrong). I advise everyone here in our forum n basahin ang CFO website and you wont go wrong. Andun po lhat ng contact number nila if may tanong pa rin tayo if di p rin naten maintindihan.

@forevern4always thank you... i was confused about someone telling me counseling plus PDOS pa in this forum... But I already clarified that to CFO when I was there. All I have to do for now is just wait... FOr now, I'm still waiting.. Hopefully soon... nearly waiting 7 months now... I think they're observing appropriate standard time of processing now...
we updated them with a letter from my partner asking the status of the app. but they replied that they're still on the progress of standard checking of the documents. and also saying I'm still within the 9 months time frame of standard processing..nearly 7 months waiting now... they don't update me at all.. I usually take the first step in communicating with them, then that's the time they will reply.. When did you lodge yours? and who's your CO btw? @elcee

@jim_hodge have you heard anything from the CO yet?
Nothing since we've supplied all the docs they asked for. Xmas is looming now, I hope we don't get the nod too close to it.

Yay... Visa Grant!!! My CO called me while I'm here in Australia. This is such a lovely news for me and my partner.. Waited for 7 and a half months for this. I could really say that " It will be given to those who patiently waits.. "
