Guest Rory Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 I would not use them if i knew what i know now. we are in the final throws of waiting for a CO. I have done all the work, chased them all the time, had a number of different people working with our file. I have called Aus a few times to see where the application was, as GV were hard to get hold of. Now we are in the system, I have called the local hospital to check if they are ready for us to take the medical. I feel we have wasted our money with this company. hi we also went with global visa and hav been left disappointd, visa lodgd Jan 28th 2012 and to date we still havnt been granted our 176 visa and everything has been submitted. did ye get a request from the CO to do yere medicals or did ye decide to do them once ye had case officer?

Guest Cup Cake Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 Hi guys I am new to the forum scene and am looking for some advice. My wife, 2 kids and I are looking to relocate to Perth and have just contacted Global Visas to assist us. Does anyone know if they are ok ? Hey there, We applied for a SS 176 visa via an agent and in all honesty, I think it was allot of money to pay for something we could have done ourselves. It seems daunting but when it comes down to it, its just form filling and reading up on the net will allow you to know what you need to do and when, in most cases it was me chasing the agent to get them to do the next step I felt I knew more than them just from Googling and reading!

Hi There - please take our advise and do not use this company... After 4 very stressful years and getting nowhere with this company we had no choice but to terminate our dealings with them and deal with the immigration directly, we took Global Visa to court this year and won our case thankfully and got all our money returned, this was also very stressful as Global Visa tried to put up a fight against us but to be fair they didnt have a leg to stand on but we could have done without the stress and time this took. We have since been granted our visa after dealing with immigration directly and our flights are booked to fly out to Perth June 2013..! This company takes on far too many visa applications and do not follow through with there promise to be professional and put there clients future in good hands as they state in there 5 core values..!! As for you poppops, sounds like you have had the same experience as us i just hope you haent wasted 4 years with this company like us..! Once you deal with the immigration directly and sign the form to terminate your dealings with them, things will move ever so quickly, it was like a HUGE weight had been lifted for us. You will be granted in no time once you get rid of that terrible waste of time company. Good Luck all of you and i hope you have happy ending..X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was with them and nothing was happening and my employer agent could not deal with them , did answer calls , didn't return calls , didn't give me right info , finally last straw I got on a plane and visited the head office and asked for my doc back and told me they were lost (sorry about that is what I got off them) them they handed me my doc all warm photo copies from stuff I had down load to them ' Thankfully I called there bluff and they gave my money back , while I was in the office approx 10 other people came in complaining i feel any visa application which is not straight forward they can't do it . Thankfully I'm with another company and it looking good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully I'm with another company and it looking good I agree they are not fab but we did get a visa a few months ago and well within the time allocated BUT I did most of the work, calls to OZ, checking medicals. I had case officers a plenty.. They contacted me a few weeks after the visa was granted and asked if we would like help with employment... only if you pay £600... ummmmm NO THANKS!! There are planty of MUCH better companies. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinkpopy123 Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 Hi, i was told by several agents that they wouldnt help me secure a job on a 457 because i was a direct entry midwife and i had to have nurse training first, i went and sorted a job out myself and have done the whole process myself, looking back im glad i did as it would do my head waiting via a middle man, instead ive had contacts direct, ive known all along where i stand. Im currently waiting for visa to come through, good luck with yours its not too difficult!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ray Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 could you tell me how you are getting on i have started but hurdles already im just up the road in perth i started 175 visa now changed to 190 trying to go over as a drainer what about you? cheers scott Hi Scott Unfortunately the wife is not very confident at doing the IELTS test and she is scared she's going to fail so we are pretty much stuck at the first hurdle. Once the test is done, it should be all straightforward from what I can gather. My occupation is not on the SOL list but my wife is a hairdresser. So itching to go but still a long way away. Frustrating !! cheers Ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
