No difference in time, it still can take up to 37 months.Quote:

The partner visa 801/820 is onshore and for both married or defacto.
Yep was checking that out a few days ago, I like the time to process calculator. $8850 application fee. I wonder if you paid more could you speed up the process as it takes years.Quote:

I’d forgotten how the system is designed to make a relationship fail.
It’s deliberately this long on purpose.
Nothing takes years.
It should only take days.
You cannot speed up this process, it's the federal government.
Don't believe the agents, they charge thousands.
No stopping the girl from leaving after she gets PR.
There is one loophole for the girls. They can claim domestic violence and this could speed up the PR grant. Not so good for the men who have to spend money and time proving their innocence. By then, they girl already has PR.
I know of guys who came unstuck that way. It’s the get away from the mug card that’s played.Quote:

I've seen the opposite where the chinese bloke pays the resident ML $100k to become his mule. He comes to the shop to pick her up, only to hear her moans as she's getting drilled by some random punter. It's fucked but that's life for those in search of a lucky country.
Better for them to leave and come back after a period of time. Three years here go home for six months then come back. That must be possible.
Riff, Same thing happened to my ex from Chongqing. Not the loophole but using agents to assist with processing. I just told her in the end its too hard and she agree so yeah, she stayed in China.Quote:

Once had a ML once suggest we get married as she was so in love with me (I knew she was playing other guys at same time) but the stipulation was I get her pregnant immediately. I have had the snip so that was never going to happen but I did have a vision in my head of having to appear on Maury Povich to do a DNA test 😂Quote:
