Hi!

Yes, we have already applied for it last week. You got to send your passport and iqama to the australian embassy via email and after a week they call you up when the letter is ready. Take an appointment and collect it. Thereafter we need to go to MOFA and Police HQ which we yet have to do.

We have already got the pcc for india from the indian embassy here...


Are you applying?

Yes, I am waiting for the CO allocation after which I will apply for the PCC. How long the indian PCC took to arrive? Could you please let me know the process? I spoke to OZ embassy here and they said if I pay 350 riyals they would provide me a letter (if CO is not allocated)

Sorry to ask so many ques. Where did u get ur medicals done?

Hi

Well, you have applied for 175 and we have applied for a SS 176 visa .. I think it takes longer for a CO to be assigned in your case..

Did you get an auto generated email saying that keep your documents ready within 28 days of this email? If you didn't get this email then I guess you are on 175, so the system is different.

You can get the PCC letter for free form OZ embassy if you have this email, or you will have to wait till you have your CO. Or pay 350 SAR and get it, she told us the same about 350 SAR.

Medicals I got them done from Warood medical centre. I would prefer sulaiman al habib but they did not have online uploads. only courier.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the information. It helps a lot. Yes, for me, it will take long time to get a CO. So Warood guys need a letter too or just walk in and say Medicals for OZ with the TRN number?

How long did the PCC from India took and also please let me know the process for it. Thanks

Spoke to Warood hospital today. Medical tests - 700 SAR per person + 250 SAR for uploading documents (don't understand why they need this) if opted for courier then 350 SAR. too much

P.S:- Guys $1 = 3.75 SAR
