 Is that alright if all applicants travel overseas on bridging visa? Bit scared 

If you are in a bridge visa, you MUST have a bridge visa-B to travel outside, if you are intending to come back..

Hi Fayz, 

Its a grey area cz they ask you to add all you family memebers as non accompanying. I had the same issue and I had my parents and siblings on document attach page. 

1. i did not try to correct it
2. I did not attach any documents under their names

All went well with no issues.

If you have run out of document attach limit, use your partners 60 documents like I did.

hope it helps.

Good luck

Thank you so much

Hi Guys,

Applied on 24/12/2018, Today got request by immi regarding bub e-medical consent form(under 6 month of age) though I have submitted GP letter when adding new born. I have one question do we need GP to sign on that consent form or it is by main applicant. Co Paul

Thanks

Hello Friends, 

I want to travel overseas this month, I have applied for 887 visa, but my 489 visa is still valid till 2021, I have bridging visa A but in-active. Do I need to get a bridging visa B before I depart Australia ?

Thanks

NOT needed..you can simply travel with 489. BV-B is only needed for people with main visa expired, and has an active BV-A.

As long as your 489 is valid, Bridiging visa will not be active. You can visit your home country. No BV-B required.

Home affairs is concentrating on 489 applications, i have seen people who submited 489 in April 2019 already received grants. We also need grants CO!

Another way is to paste the image onto Microsoft word then save as pdf making sure you click minimise at the save option box.

Hello Seniors,

Please share information for file limit, I am really struggling to compress these files to defined limit.

Please share if there is any particular software orlink to compress these files...

 

 

Did you convert files to acrobat; there definitely is something in acrobat in which you can add multiple pages to one file. Personally dont have much experience as my consultant did all that for me.

According to our agent its best not to leave the country on a bridging Visa.

 I call immi and they said traveling in BVB should not affect 887  visa processing. They said that if it is close to make a decision on 887 v, they will send an email advising to be onshore , as visa is onshore application.

Guys 

From today i am turning into 15 months I haven’t heard anything yet 

I have gone through this forum and seems like they open file for the first time around 14 months 

Should I make a complain? 

[HelloMan]

@Hope check the FAQ section on page 1477 of this forum.
