We have been struggling with the DHA since 2015 in obtaining completed UAB Birth certificates for our 9 year old twins. The last thing we were told is to do DNA test for the 4 of us at a cost of R3000, completed in September 2017. We then completed another set of forms and submitted early October only to find that the office we're dealing with (Byron Place in PTA) did not attach our forms and we made no copies!!!
We applied for our 489 Visas 15th June 2017, sent in all documents by August but they have asked for the twins UAB birth certificates which we still don't have. We send the DNA results report to DIBP too but not sure if this will be accepted while waiting for DHA.
Has anyone else perhaps had this experience and to the Agents on the forum, do you know if DIBP will accept the DNA results or want the UAB BCs? we definitely want this but could it hold up their decision on our visa grants?
Any advice or information will be most welcome to very frustrated parents
