Hey Michael, so nice to see u both together. Amanda is amazing👌😍. Sending 💜💜💜 to u both.

[@kingahoward9417]

Hi Amanda. I hope you are well. I was just wondering how is the process going on?? Are you still waiting for the approval?? My boyfriend and I, we will be going through the same process soon. I wish you all the best. Big hugs!!

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

hi! Thanks for checking in! It's been nearly two years now and we are still waiting on the temporary visa to come through, though I'm pretty sure we are very close to this happening - we've just submitted our FBI checks, which I believe is the last step!

[@achmatxforbes]

super helpful!

[@Megan_Truly]

Oh my gosh, that's pretty intense! Good luck. :)

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

right?! It will be worth it though :) Thanks so much Meg!

[@gailevans2635]

Wow that’s a ton of work! Good luck to you guys 🤞🏻😸

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

thanks so much Gail!

[@hakkyasar8974]

Can I apply after 14years marriage partner visa 309????

[@passionspotatoes9182]

Your handwriting is beautiful!

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

aw thank you so much!!

[@DaveWhoa]

very rare in 2018

[@janaeklintoukh4162]

Thanks! all the info i was looking for!..

[@jenniferhayes1294]

Wow...that sounds so intense and somewhat invasive, but I'm sure it will be worth it in the end. You and Michael seem like a really good fit for each other.

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

aw thank you so much Jennifer! I think we are a good fit too, hehe. He definitely makes life more fun :)

[@CrystleDragon]

Wow this sounds like a headache. It seems to be worth it for you guys though. I hope everything goes smoothly; good luck!

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

thank you Crystle! It is a lot of work but the work will be over soon and then it will just be a lot of waiting, haha. :)

[@SonyaBarnesOnMove]

So much to do! It's a good thing you keep good records, though. It is sad that it is so involved because of how many people have done the system wrong. But, since I know people who were tricked by their partner even after going through all of this, it is certainly understandable that they check so thoroughly. Good luck!

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

omg what! That is crazy. I understand why they need make the process so daunting, but I'm happy my part of the work is almost over hehe

[@heidykatheryn8279]

You are exaggerating the fees of everything, the police check cost 45 and the registration of the relationship cost around 150 ...

[@barryhamilton6932]

Hi Amanda. I am an aussie and think you would make a great aussie too. I wish you all the best with the process. I have a couple of friend with partners from overseas and I remember them going through the process of getting a visa for their partner. I subcribed to your channel so looking forwards to hear more about how your application goes. All the best Barry.

[@mrs.rheniversen5921]

Very helpful. Hey, what's the update of your visa application?

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

no updates, I submitted it in August last year, I was requested to do the medical exam late last year. Other than that, no news. It is normal to wait two years before knowing whether you are accepted or not. Cross your fingers for me :)

[@KM-wg8lc]

@@AmandaRoundtheGlobe and any updates now?

[@slimnics]

Good insight thank you.

[@SimpleMarketingAcademy]

It looks like a lengthy process to get a partner Visa. Love the notebook...so organized.

[@lamajigmeg]

minimalism is so important!

[@DanicaChristin]

Oh my gosh this brings back memories. The paperwork was just insane. I think I weight my stack at the end and it was over 1kg 😆 But my goodness, I thought 3000$ was a lot for the visa when i applied in 2012. The cost just keeps going up. Good luck girl, seems like you have a good game plan 💕

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

Danica! I didn't know you went through this as well! Yeah, I have a few Aussie friends who brought their partners over a few years ago and it was $3000. Idk why they decided to essentially double the price, but it apparently hasn't stopped people from applying. The lawyer told me that the country only accepts 50,000 partner visas per year, which is why it takes so long. I'm finishing up the paperwork this week, I'm so excited to have my life back soon hahaha

[@DanicaChristin]

Amanda Round the Globe yeah it's crazy that they introduced a quote. I mean what about people who are married with kids. They have to wait for ages too. Doesn't seem fair. Isn't not like this in most countries - though many do require you to be married. Pros and cons I guess.

[@BreakingJJC]

Hey I got one question how do I become a Australian citizenship when I'm from Canada ? I really love goldcoast Australia so much I miss the people in Australia I really don't like Canada a lot because I'm Asian. Is there a visa I can stayed for 4 years before applying for citizenship?

[@Eran_2525]

Very good video! I wish you the best and i have no doubt you will get a visa grant! Luckily ive just recived my 820 approved so next stage will be the 801 :) I will recommend you to add also utility bills such as electricity or gas. And if you share a vehicle an insurance certificate. Also if you stayed with Airbnb or hotels you can use these as a proof. GL !

[@mitchellm1451]

i own my own house...i wonder if that will make the process more quicker?

[@KaysKreationsMC]

wow that is totally interesting what all is involved omg !

[@carolinacaicedo5094]

Hello Amanda You should write everything you said. So we can understand better. Something like a note. Thank you so much. 🌹

[@عاشقةجيمين-ذ8ج]

Hey I got so much information thank you actually I wanna go to visit my boyfriend in Australia and now try get visa visit for 12 month and after that before its end I wanna apply to partner visa do you think good idea?? So we already have been 1 year together and after 12 month going be 2 year so I think going be nice to get visa partner and actually we going married in my country so we already married couple so are still in timperray visa??

[@roachtoasties]

Good luck. A lot of stuff to do. A shorter list for the partner visa might have been what you don't have to do, like juggling six bowling pins while eating an ice cream cone. ;) I was going to visit Australia for a third time this month, but plans changed. Maybe next year.

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

haha right! Where in Aus were you planning to visit? It's a beautiful country :)

[@roachtoasties]

I've been to Sydney, Melbourne and Auckland NZ, so I'm thinking of Perth, but a huge distance for me.

[@Adam19811]

@@roachtoasties You should try out Gold Coast, it's the best.

[@persephone213]

Wow...sounds like a lot of work!! Best of luck to you 😃

[@spagsab]

do you have any updates? did you finish lodging the visa? are you currently on a bridging visa

[@lindaholm9801]

Wow that was fascinating, seems we have very stringent regulations here in Australia. Best wishes and hope everything progresses well for you guys 🙂🇦🇺💖

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

thanks so much Linda! I think most first world countries are pretty tight on letting people in, but I'm grateful that I have the opportunity :)

[@lilliericks3444]

How long is the visa good for?

[@Noxi8890]

I don't think I could meet those requirements with my wife and we have been together 18 years!

[@kassrripples3659]

Phil P same ... my husband and I possibly wouldn’t be able to prove so much of that relationship stuff ... really interesting to hear about that

[@momohib123]

Hey can I ask which lawyer you are using? its a lot more affordable than the ones I've spoken to..x

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

hey! I actually went with my lawyer because the price was so much lower than others, but I think that was a mistake as we actually have not had the best experience with them. I wouldn't recommend them :( They are called Visas Simply

[@elliotdickson3159]

Applied for Stage 1 - Partner or Prospective Marriage Visa (300,309/100,820/801) On February 4th 2018. Haven't heard anything yet........... patiently wating.

[@truth540]

Hi there did u get it yet?

[@louisedando5874]

Can you not get any other visa to stay in Aus or does it have to be a partner one?..

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

I've already completed a working holiday visa, which means I can't do another one, and I can't find a company to sponsor me to stay in the country. The only other way to stay with my partner would be to travel outside of the country or to apply for a partner visa. I'm currently on a tourist visa which lasts 3 months.

[@epaMinondAURA]

Hi Amanda! Thank you for sharing all this complex process with us. I have a question: what if you guys were married for example in America? Would you still have to go through the all partner visa process? Because it seems to be less expensive to get married and then get a divorce instead of doing all this huge process to get a partner visa 😅 isn't it?

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

I've heard the process of getting a visa when you're married is actually much simpler, but I would still be applying for the same visa, which means the same costs would apply. We talked about marriage but didn't want to do it just to get a visa - we would want to be able to celebrate with our family and friends.

[@DanicaChristin]

I've been in the same situation and from all that I know it's basically the same amount of work whether you are married or not. Price tag is the same too.

[@alasdairbaird7303]

While you are filling out your forms try not to get angry about the 60,000 illegals that are in Australia. They have overstayed visas or probably come here and never left. The point bring that the honest people are made to give them evidence of private correspondence to prove they are a couple whilst these ridiculous things are happening at the same time. It's hard to believe that the system can still be played when you are put through such a nightmare of form filling.

[@Adam19811]

Fuck, aren't I lucky that I was born here lmao.

[@juliam5628]

Omg i should stop complaining about the Costa Rican and Italian burocreacy now 😂

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

hey guys! This has been my most requested video lately - hope you enjoy! Let me know if you are also in the process of applying for this visa or if you plan to in the future :)

[@orionbear785]

Im applying for a partner VISA and this was incredibly helpful. Thank you. We didn't anticipate it being so difficult. I may have to leave Australia first and save more money and get more documents together first😔

[@johnferreira9857]

Love your videos and yourself congratulations on that.... That's crazy with all that info stuff though sounds like communism

[@AmandaRoundtheGlobe]

I think most first-world countries are pretty strict on letting people in, so I don't mind jumping through some hoops to be able to settle down with my partner. I'm from the US, and I know it's even harder to get in there, so I'm grateful to the country of Australia for giving me a chance :)
