The application charge is "normally" not refundable but does anyone have knowledge of whether the charge would be refundable under these circumstances? ie the AOS requirements increases during the extended period beyond the original 18 - 24 months which is what they had indicated. Hi Benoni Sorry about that, it is such a pity that after waiting so long this has to happen. Can you not find any other Sponsor? You should try and not give up easily Best wishes 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the privacy of immi workers, please don't share their names. It doesn't help anybody else's application to know what a case worker's name is. We don't get to choose our case worker after all. This forum is public to guests and searchable by Google so it would be an invasion of privacy to share any names. Thanks in advance for understanding. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have definitely not lost hope as we do still have time on our side, so we're working furiously on identifying a suitable and willing sponsor. (but its a big ask) However we will have to also work on a Plan B in the interim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm aware that a legitimately established Company (subject to certain normal conditions) could be Assurer without needing to meet specific income requirements (would've been ideal). I estimate we have until Jan 2019 to find a suitable joint Assurer but need to get cracking right away ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onthemove Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 @KevinLee @TeeTMI fantastic! It would be great news if recent AOS changes were overturned and a relief to those who would otherwise be adversely affected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AoS is the next time consuming step. @Onthemove congrats! I’ve been keeping a close (silent) eye on your progress. My parents-in-law have a lodgement date of 30/06/2015, so we’re waiting with baited breath to get that letter! We also had a bit of an AoS scare with the new regulations, but managed to scramble and get a suitable family member to help out in time. I’ll keep this thread updated of our progress as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
