First time applying for single entry visa(60 days)

Emailed consulate in Sydney on Tuesday 28th Nov with scan of application,passport and bank balance.

Received this reply email yesterday and not sure exactly whether it means my email isn’t correct or if it’s just the normal next step in the process to getting my visa approved?

Pls any advice would be so much appreciated?

TIA 🙏🏻

The user is concerned about their first-time application for a single entry visa after receiving a reply from the consulate in Sydney. Responses from community members clarify that the correct application process involves completing the visa application online first, obtaining a pre-approval email with a reference number, and then submitting the required documents including the reference number. Alternatives include sending a printed application form and relevant documents. Overall, the advice suggests that asking for clarification from the consulate may also be prudent.

I’ve done it many times with Sydney Consulate . You don’t send a scanned copy you complete it online first from their website and wait for pre approval email with the reference number they supply you.

Than you add the reference number to your visa application and send you’re documents to them with a self addressed return envelope and wait for you’re passport to come back with the visa sticker inside mate.

thanks so much mate 🙏🏻

So just click on that link and follow steps?

And then post original passport once they reply with reference number?

I’m on the Gold Coast

Any idea roughly how long it takes?

Leaving for Thailand on 15th January so hoping I have enough time to get it sorted 🙏🏻

yeah mate that’s correct and you upload the required documents online and send the original documents with the passport through post when they reply.

I live in NSW and takes me about 10 days start to finish.

Use express post both ways.
