timbom Posted August 31, 2022 Author #26 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Have a copy of the church records framed which I copied and sent to your homeland people. Ir would of taken weeks to get a certified one. Talked to your authority today and they explained that because of covid and the reopening of the borders the office is swamped and everything is taking longer than normal. We are in process of by-passing Australia and will pull the plug on Australia if we don't get visa by end of week. Carnival is very understanding on issue and will issue me credit for cruise if I can't get visa.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter just lost $5000 because after 3 months of waiting, no passport for her daughter and they were flying out to NZ on Monday. Commiserations to you if you cancel, the excuses given, 'weare swamped out etc' is not good enough. Too many of those people in the passport/visa office have been allegedly working from home and probably with little output, pathetic, makes me angry as you. All the best anyway.
