Thank you, Jesus! Finally, the golden email has arrived! Visa granted! 🇦🇺✨ Thank you so much to this group. It truly helped me throughout our waiting journey. The information and insights shared here were very helpful and gave us a better understanding of our application process. Waiting was not easy, but everything is worth it once you finally receive the grant. Have faith and trust the process, your time will come soon. Special thanks to Smartvisa Guide for all the guidance and support. Keep up the amazing work. You are truly a blessing and a huge help to many of us who dream of moving to Australia. Best wishes to everyone who is still waiting. Never lose hope, your time will come too. 😊

Also I had made a silly mistake in visa application in Employment section, which DID NOT impact the claimed points. I observed the mistake after receiving the first S56 and used Notification of incorrect info option in immi to inform DHA. S56 Notes First S56 : AFP renewal, PCC renewal, employment proofs : 30 March 2026 Second S56 : PCC (as it was delayed and could not be submitted in first 28 days window) : 29 April 2026 Submitted the requested PCC on 3 May 2026
