Updated Police Check - Australia

[AndyRoo6 97]

Hi,

 

I have my interview coming up in early February and my immigration lawyer has stated I will need a new Police check. The one we submitted to the NVC (and was approved) was from May 2019.

 

Thoughts on if this is actually the case?

Not sure, just know they’re only valid for 12 months, so should be current still... if you do it online with priority mail.. you should have it in 10 days.. unless they’ve changed things up... I know I’m still having issues with mine at NVC dated July 2019

 

I was researching any new rules etc only 2 days ago... the fingerprint one is only needed for citizenship and k1 from what I see.. but the whole police certificate thing in now really annoying me and has us paused 🤷‍♀️

 

Let me know now how you go

good luck at the interview..

Thanks!

 

Yeah When I confronted my immigration lawyer with the fact that I had called the Sydney Consulate and they had confirmed I would not need a new one, she still tried to fight me on it saying there are quite often delays in processing blah blah her professional opinion blah blah. But she has done nothing but lie  and screw up  our progress at every stage so we are not listening to a word she says.

 

Fingers crossed for you that you get some positive news by tomorrow. There is absolutely no doubt you have the correct police check. You will get DQ soon, just hold tight a little longer.
