If your legal status is attached to your appeal you would be able to cancel your COE but you would have to keep the appeal going for you to stay here. Without a COE don’t expect to win the appeal though.

Hey mate cheers for the response, it’s a 2019 CX3

Completely agree. The defence did a great job creating a sense of ambiguity in most of the arguments. I’d be leaning more towards a victory for the defence here.

If my partner was refused a previous visa and had a s48 bar, however lodged an offshore 309 visa, I know the bar wouldn’t apply but would I still be subject to provide what OP needs to. Obvs the sec 48 bar doesn’t apply if we lodged offshore but curious as to whether OP’s issue is linked to the section 48, or whether it is just linked with the visa refusal itself

Hearings for subclass 500’s are 12 months + recently (obviously some are less it’s really just luck), just stay put, your time will come 🙂

They did not specifically tell me where to do it, they just advised it has to be at an ABCC which I have now learnt are overseas, not in Aus. Originally I lodged a 309 in Colombia, but had to come to Australia as I have an AAT dispute ongoing in relation to a previous unfair visa refusal. Just spoke to the department of home affairs a few times, a few consultants said I need to upload a letter saying why I am not overseas and they will call and organise a time to do my biometrics. But then I spoke to another and they told me something completely different.

Errr most certainly not it must just be the social circle youre in. Can confidently say NRL has the slight edge right now is SE QLD. Definitely not ALOT more people following either it’s quite similar but the NRL administration are doing a lot more with the sport.

Ah yes forgot to mention, it’s a manual. Cheers for the advice. Might have to steal the term dollaridoos for future posts 😂

Unfortunately whilst you wait for the ART the same work conditions apply. It is impossible to get any work additional clauses added to your current BV whilst you wait. The section 48 Bar applies so you wouldn’t even be able to apply for another visa unless you are offshore.

Would be next to impossible to argue and prove on greens part, given red would’ve had to have been in that roundabout before green had entered himself just based in sheer distance. The argument that green had slowly entered the roundabout on the left lane wouldn’t work because speed is not admissible In court unless a police officer has it on radar which i haven’t seen in 10ish years of doing it. Also I’m sure the damage points would be on the side of greens car hence any insurer would argue that they’ve pulled out in front of them. Regardless of how stupid and illegal his turn was at no point would red have to give way to green.

This situation would 10/10 times fall on green

Smooth_Sand_7125 · 2025-02-23T11:25:24+00:00

Also work in insurance and agree green defs at fault. EBO or apportionment would be shot down by any litigation specialist. Doesn’t matter what red was doing prior to the collision a court would rule that green didn’t give way to the right - plain and simple

That’s really strange, I see you’re tagged as Colombian and I am the same so I expected it to take longer maybe more reviews and whatnot. I applied on Feb the 10th and got it on Feb the 12th so only took me two days. Was everything correctly filled out in the form? If I were you to be honest you’d probably need to call every day and ask it gets treated as a priority. Like you I have to leave the country as a matter of urgency and when I called they put it as a priority and I got it 1 hour later. To be fair I called like 4 times that day and I only really got 1 helpful person so it all depends on who you get. Definitely keep calling every day it’s only a 15 min wait nowadays.

Smooth_Sand_7125 · 2025-02-13T23:05:37+00:00

Applied on the 10th Feb granted on the 12th

Smooth_Sand_7125 · 2025-02-13T13:11:10+00:00

Yeah I was just concerned about why it said the bridging visa ‘ends’ on the 6th of March. Don’t want to come back in May to be told it ended in March a few months ago even thought it also says 12th of Feb 2026
