It probably took her 20-25 minutes. How is it we have front line workers as persistent and patient as she was in Australia, but a faceless bureaucracy somewhere making everyone who has an actual productive job to do more difficult. Anyway....lets see how long it takes that bureaucracy to verify the same documents as they did 2 years ago
Mate have you looked at other options rather than the expensive Auspost ID verification route? Unfortunately being on the GC I guess you dont have a lot of choice. Even when you get the application submitted, our mates in Canberra are not exactly going to any great lengths to clear the backlog that exists at the moment.
