Default ACS Result Cleared

Hello All,

I have just got my ACS result and I am very glad that I have got MODL nomination. the time lines are as under :-

Application Received : 12th March 2009
Case Finalized : 3rd June 2009
Result Received : 9th June 2009

Thanks a lot for all your co-operation. Now moving onto the main application, can anyone suggest me that if I plan to get married in less than 12 months time, should I file application for both of us or should I start my application now and then afterwords file another application for spouse.

Another thing is that should I go for state nomination visa 176 or go for general visa 175 ? any suggestions !

Saad

hi saad

congratulations

if you apply for the visa with her as a spouse, you have to provide proof of her being your spouse. You can get married in the court and attach proofs.

second options is to get your visa and then apply for her later when you are married which is a longer procedure.

You can search the forum fro spouse visa, a lot has been discussed in last couple of months, that will give you an idea of the procedure and paperwork required.

If you apply for 176, you have to have a valid state sponsorship, you can start looking which state requires your skill and if you happen to be in the list, you can give it a shot.

Hi Saad:

Congrats on your ACS result

Now for your other questions.

If you did a civil marriage you could put your spouse on your PR 175/176 application. That means one recognised in courts. Later you may do the full ceremony and it won't affect the application.

If you do not marry now then you will need to sponsor your spouse separately. There are both onshore and offshore options for Spouse visa and if you search the forum you can find details of people who have recently gotten their spouse visas or are in the process of applying.

As for 176 with State Nomination if you succeed in getting a state nomination then this processes quicker than a 175 independent skilled application. Note that you must then stay in the sponsoring state for a minimum of 2 years.

If you want maximum flexibility then go for a 175. If you want to enter AU sooner but be restricted in moving out of the sponsoring state then go for a 176.

I suggest a thorough read of the Sticky posts at the top of the forum. They contain a lot of information that affects every prospective and new immigrant to Australia.

Good luck.
