  Iemail po ba n co yung visa grant or sa immi account sya makikita?

  Mag-iemail po ang CO ng visa grant notice, then like what @tartakobsky said (sa case ko din po) yung sa immiaccount status magiging 'finalised' at kung ioopen nyo po yung link na 'view correspondence' sa immiaccount, nakaattach po dun yung grant notice copy---same copy po yun ng pinadala ng co sa email.

  Sir, lester here. kaka-reciv ko lang ng visa grant notice ko last january as dependent ng partner ko. he is the primary 457 visa applicant and he is working na sa melbourne. mine too was also a 457 visa dependent type. ask ko lang sana sa may info kung ano pa need ko para hnd maharang sa immigration sa airport... mejo kinakabahan kasi ako baka maharang pa. all i have are the visa grant notice and passport. last time nagpunta ako ng philippine immigration, unfortunately nalungkot lang ako kasi hnd nila alam ang case ko. they gave me the number of immigration sa NAIA, pero many times ko tinawagan nagriring lang...:( nagpunta din ako sa CFO and nag-inquire kung need ko pa magPDOS. They told me na no need na daw dhl sa type ng visa ko. tinanong ko din sila dun kung need ko din bang magpunta ng POEA, sabi nila hindi na daw. pero until now hnd p tlga ako panatag kung wla ng magiging problem sa immigration.

  Yes @Umbenieyon, I arrived last Friday. Baka hanggang May lang ako dito, hiniram ako ng company namin dito sa Perth. By April susunod na dito ang mag-ina ko.
  
  Medyo nakakalungkot sa una dito sa Perth pero nasasanay na rin ako kahit papano. Ibang iba kasi ang environment compared to SG na sobrang dami ng tao. Tahimik dito lalo na kapag weekend. Pero nakakatuwa sa work dahil para kang nauubusan ng laway sa umaga pagpasok. Lahat nang makasalubong mo babatiin ka at makikipagkwentuhan. Mababait nman mga tao dito di katulad sa SG na snaban. Sobrang mahal ng mga bilihin dito sa Perth. Kung x2 or x3 ang presyo ng PH to SG, dito naman x3 or x4 naman ng mga presyo SG to AU. Kaya mas maganda magbaon ng lunch sa work per meal dito ay $10 pataas. Pag Saturday, merong market sa Canning Vale, mura ang mga karne at fruits. Puro nga lang halos asian ang bumibili dun. Nung nagpunta kami, wala ako halos makitang puti. Hehehe..
  
  Be ready lang sa paghahanap ng work pagdating dito. Mataas ang unemployment rate sa buong AU. Baka lalo na sa Brisbane kaya dapat marami na baon pagpunta nyo dito.
  
  Good luck
