十分钟拿到配偶签证

水晶李子

昨天刚拿到配偶签证准签信。之前在坛子里得到不少有用信息，这次就汇报一下我拿到签证的过程，作为对论坛小小的回报吧。
别看我标题里说“十分钟”拿到，其实准备工作很早就开始了。
我男朋友去年12月拿到pr,我就从12月底开始准备文件了。看了移民局的checklist, 又上论坛上看了同学们的发言，心里有底了。但当时一直拖拖拉拉的，没有雷厉风行地一口气搞定。只是让我爸妈从国内寄来了我的出生公证和无刑公证，又找了两个朋友开了888证明信。其他的同居证明只是大概归了归类。哦，对了，还做完了体检。然后我们就回国过年去了，一个月之后回来，已经3月份了。我开始认真的填写表格，并且挑选合适的evidence了。具体list下文详说。3月中的时候，在我觉得所有材料都准备好的时候，我才打电话（131 881）给移民局，预约面试。他奶奶的，居然排到一个多月之后的4月23号。没办法，就等吧。打完电话后，马上收到一封移民局的电子邮件，内容见下楼，其内容主要就是移民关所需材料。

完全按照这个清单，我重新准备的文件材料如下：
一．        关于我（申请者）的文件：
1）        Form 47SP （Application for migration to Australia by a partner ）一份
2）        Form 80 （Personal particulars for character assessment ）一份
3）        澳洲无刑公证原件一份。
    如果申请spouse visa 820 810，　police check需要在移民局网站下载1101的form寄去Canberra拿police check。据说最好要提前申请，因为process的时间最长会１个月。我的是十多天拿到回信。下载地址如下：http://www.immi.gov.au/allforms/pdf/1101.pdf。
4）        中国无刑公证原件一份。
5）        两张近期护照照片（境外申请需要四张）
6）        护照复印件，包括个人信息页和所有用过的页。

二．        签证费用
费用可以以credit card, eftpos, money order和bank cheque方式支付。我是面试当天以信用卡方式支付的。相关网页：http://www.immi.gov.au/allforms/990i.htm

三．男朋友的相关材料
1）        Form 40SP （Sponsorship for migration to Australia） 一份
2）        Form 80 （Personal particulars for character assessment ）一份
3）        两张近期护照照片
4）        PR 证明。 他的PR签证页复印件。
5）        收入证明。他的工资单几份，去年的退税单。我男朋友工作了一年多了，每星期税前收入大概1000－1100左右。看到有同学说，如果这个收入完全由担保方承担，至少要达到一年收入2.5万。

四．相关证据料
1）两份888表格（Statutory Declaration by supporting witness in respect of an application to remain permanently in Australia on spouse or interdependency grounds）。由两个朋友提供（均为澳洲PR），说明他们认识我们的时间，见面频率以及证明我们关系是真实的。需附上他们的护照PR页复印件作为证明。
2）两份我们的声明。我和男朋友各写一份。内容包括：首次见面过程，什么时候关系开始确立，日常生活中两人的依赖性（精神，财政等），未来计划（工作，婚姻）等。
3) 同居证明。我们两处租房合同复印件。第一年那个只有我的名字，但是我提供了他同一时间同一地址的3G帐单作为我们同居的证据。第二年的有我们两个的名字。
4) N多3G帐单复印件。时间横跨两年，其众多通话记录可以证实我们的真实性。
5）几张银行帐单复印件。我们联名帐户帐单一份，他的工资接受账户帐单一份。另外随便提供了几份。
6）几张信用卡帐单复印件。一张Virgin的来信，证明他是主卡，我是附属卡。几张我的Citibank的，用来支付日常开销的（水，电，煤气等）。因为我们所有的帐单都是寄给他的，没有我的名字，只能以此证明我们平时生活中的财政关系是紧密的。
7）几张水电，煤气帐单。与5）配合使用的。
8）RACV保险单复印件。上面有我们两个的名字。
9）我们的照片。20多张，基本上是我们在一起的重大时刻的合影。我的生日，元旦，和同学出去玩，我的毕业典礼礼服照，他的毕业典礼礼服照，回国旅游合影等。一些照片里有其他的朋友和老师，作为我们关系是“大白于天下”的证明。

基本上就这些了。

五．体检
未开封的体检报告。体检过程就不说了，同学们都经历过的。但有一点我终生难忘，我被扎了五次，就为了抽一管血！！！！！！！！！！！！！医生说我太干！！！同学们一定要吸取我血的教训，抽血前多喝水啊。

PS：
1)        除了出生公证，国内外无刑证明需要原件外，其他所有材料都是Certificated copies. 原件移民局不接收，我的一些原件当场就退回来了。我是拿着原件与复印件直接去Oakleigh警察局的（每周三晚上7：30之后办理）。好大一叠。当场搞定。
2)        所有所需表格都可以在以下网址找到：http://www.immi.gov.au/allforms
3)        要合理安排时间，完全可以预约之后再准备材料，以及体检。

4月23号当天上午，我和男朋友怀着平静的心情走进了DIAC的大楼（City那家，大家都很熟了哈），进了电梯，直上23楼。出来一看，走廊两端各有一个office,不知道哪个才是办理family Visa的。还好碰到一个好心的工作人员，他自己先确认了一下，把我们领到了出电梯右手边的办公室。进去一看，哟，真小，估计也就100多平米吧。其时离我们预约的时间还有十几分钟。把我们打出来的appointment letter拿给一个小帅哥，他拿过去看了一下，就直接拿到后面的一个小房间了，出来后给我们说稍等。那我们就乖乖地稍等了。坐在椅子上，一直和男朋友聊天，期间很有一些亲密动作。因为我小肚鸡肠，总觉得说不定签证官会秘密观察我们，哈！

过了15分钟左右，在我上上下下，仔仔细细看了办公室一副City绘画后，一个中年妇女出来了，叫我的名字，可她叫得也太不标准了，叫了好几声我才反应过来，哦，是叫我啊。拉着男朋就就进去了。小房间里有两个女人，除她之外，还有一个漂亮妹妹，是实习生吗？哦，不说妹妹了。坐定之后，中年的这个叫开始自我介绍，然后就问了一些很简单的问题，基本上就是我们statement里的内容。什么时候初次见面啊（我和男朋友都回答了）， 以后的计划啊（想找什么样的工作，什么时候打算结婚），然后就没有了，就问我们有什么问题没有。我就问有需要补充的材料吗，她说没有，问签证要多久啊，她说一到两个星期会寄出信；又问她拿到TR后可不可以Cancel学生签证，她说Ok啊。然后我就说没有问题了，然后她就说2年之后我能转为PR什么的，然后就say bye bye 了。出来一看时间，进去了不到十分钟。在小帅哥那里刷卡交钱（2060，肉疼）后，我们就高高兴兴去逛街了。

4月28号，收到准签信，大功告成！看了一下信，签发日期居然就是4月23号，也就是说当天就签发了。4月24号寄出，28号我收到。 真是的，当时为什么就不能当场给我呢。不过也好了，让我等待的时间不算长。

拿到TR了，我也该洗心革面了，不能再吊儿郎当混日子了。努力！与大家共勉！

自然

恭喜你啊

是不是按楼主这样的方式申请起来会很快呢？ 我听说有什么电签面签什么的？楼主这是走的哪条线路呢？

澳洲的配偶签证都需要去面试吗？或是因为这个方法最节省时间呢？

如果材料齐全大家都去面试貌似整个等待的过程比起其他的类别签证就很悠闲了挖？~~~~

嗯，我的是面签。应该是这种方式最快。
配偶签证并不是都需要面试的。只是我自己预约的面签而已。

楼主可不可以好事做到底透露下面签的的过程呢？ 是否就是直接发邮件给领管约见+递交材料？
这样10分钟就签啦？审核都免了？

还望不吝赐教，谢谢！

我没有发邮件，就是直接打电话过去预约的。131 881
电话里工作人员会告诉你什么时间interview,然后告诉我他们会正式发信，，做为预约凭证。可以选择收信，也可以选择电子邮件接收。我选后者，电话里告诉了他们我的e-mail地址，就没事了。挂了电话，我打开邮箱，信已经到了，就是上面那封。
之后就没事了。等到当天去了之后就直接递交材料，见签证官了。经历全在上面了。确实是10分钟就签了。

水晶李子

火点寒冰 ，不知道你所谓的审核是什么意思。我们到了之后，材料交给了reception的一个工作人员（文中的帅哥了），如上所说 “把我们打出来的appointment letter拿给一个小帅哥，他拿过去看了一下，就直接拿到后面的一个小房间了，出来后给我们说稍等。那我们就乖乖地稍等了。” 等候了十几分钟，这段时间应该是签证官审看我们材料的时间。因为我们进去小房间之后，她显然已经看过材料了。
希望能帮到你一点

OMG~~ 只10分钟就这样？？？ 无法相信啊~~ 楼主实在是撞了大好运，羡慕死了~~

我有个小疑问：你只是打电话预约，在指定时间带着你所有的材料去面试，等了10分钟就搞定，是这样吗？按说所有的材料不会就这样轻快的看完吧？ 那整个浏览你的材料加上应有的推敲估计也就最多半小时咯？ 真是这么快吗？

看来楼主的材料实在是完美至及啊~~ 我要好好参照一下。谢谢啦~~

对的，就是这样。真的很好运吗？我之前看到也有同学当天或几天内就拿到的啊。应该是很普遍的现象吧。
不过我的case确实简单。很多人担心的担保金问题在我这里完全不是问题。哈哈。要多谢谢男朋友呢。

顶起来。

估计很多tx现在也准备申请这个

hsuehhan

请问你男友是登陆激活PR后 你递交的申请啊？还是拿到PR不用登陆就可以办呀？
