Thank you for your feedback to the Department of Immigration and Border Protection.
You raised some questions about lodging a now-repealed sub-class 115 Last Remaining Relative application.
I understand that you sent your application to the Seoul Visa Office, and it has been received and registered as a valid application.
I am sorry if you believe you received contradictory advice about lodging an application. Staff at the Australian Visa Application Centre, staff at the Guangzhou Call Centre, and staff in the Consulate Office Guangzhou sought to ensure that any queries were answered clearly, in view of the
impending repeal of these visa sub-classes, and the last day of business before June 2, 2014.
If you have already applied or apply before the date of cessation of new applications your application will continue to be processed under existing regulations and policy. Note that the Parent and Other Family visas are subject to annual planning levels. In 2014-15, 1500 places have been allocated to Parent and 500 places to Other Family. You can expect to wait up to 13 years for a Parent or Aged Parent visa, four years for a Carer visa and up to 16 years for a Aged Dependent Relative or Remaining Relative visa.
Certain eligible dependent family members, such as a partner or dependent children can be added to an existing undecided application. You will need to provide evidence of the relationship, including dependency.作者: 萍水相逢蜕变 时间: 2015-3-8 02:01
看来对待115的和对待103的态度完全不同啊，虽然是同样的投诉，作者: xjred 时间: 2015-3-8 09:22
我估计可能是103的申请太多了， 移民局一时半会处理不了， 所以还没有发确认信给你们。
