Hey guys

Can anyone update me about paying for K1 visa as to where about in SYDNEY you paid it. I went to my local Aus Post and the lady tried for almost 45 mins and said she cant work out how to pay for it.

Can you tell me a Aus Post branch in SYD which you paid at and knew what to do ??

Thanks for helping in advance.

I paid for mine at the post office in narellan town center and the lady knew exactly what to do :) otherwise, there is a lady from England at Liverpool westfields post office who is very knowledgeable but I cant remember her name :|=

Can you tell me a Aus Post branch in SYD which you paid at and knew what to do ??
