Hi All,
Thanks for the help so far. I have just finished uni last year and applied for the Work Visa - Open approximately 2 months ago.
Everything was going well, excepted that my HbA1c is around twice the normal range (and this is all news to me), so they have me do a protein in urine test.
Turns out I have microalbumia and most-likely diabetes, so the case was referred to an MA.
That was before the end of March and I am still waiting for the initial response from the MA (they haven't told me to do any other tests yet).
I have no problem waiting for my visa at all, except for the fact that my graduation ceremony is coming up on the 7th of May...
I have contacted my CO at the end of March, and she said that the situation is well noted, but I have to wait patiently for the response from the MA.
As you probably realized, I am running out of time as graduation is only around the corner.
My questions are:
1) Is it possible to contact the MA and let he/she know of the current situation?
2) Is it possible for my CO to grant me a visitor visa instead just for my graduation if it comes down to that?
3) How likely is it that my visa will be granted in time (within a week). All hope seems lost to me since it seems very likely I have to do more testing before being granted a visa.
Any advice would be really appreciated. Thank you.
