Travel Exemption Request Granted in than Less 48 Hours and Visitor Visa Granted Despite Character Issues and Providing False and Misleading Information
On 28 September 2020, we received the best news from AHC lawyers who have informed me that my partner’s visitor visa application and travel restriction exemption request have been approved by the Department of Home Affairs. I cried with joy because of the complexity of my partner’s situation. We have been struggling to reunite since July 2018. I applied for temporary residence permit application to Canada where my partner resides but my attempts were not successful. We have been physically separated since January 2020 due to COVID-19. We both got character issues and did not disclose my partner’s criminal record in his previous visa applications to Australia. We engaged AHC lawyers for my partner to be able to enter Australia. They were very frank with me from the start that what we have done in the past would make our case difficult and advised us to be prepared for the worst Due to our struggle and long term separation, both of us have been physically and mentally tired. I have been seeing psychologist to keep up with all the issues both of us have to face to reunite. During the processing of the case, they made the required documents very simple and significant. They do the heavy lifting throughout the process. My partner’s visitor visa was lodged on 30 August 2020 and travel exemption request was made on 24 September 2020. Less than 1 month from application, his visitor visa (as well as exemption request) was approved without any request letter from the Department. Thank you guys.
