Granted 888 Visa through Export

188A to 888A Visa Holder

“The afternoon of 11 March 2025 was a day my husband and I will never forget. It was only our third day back in Adelaide, and we were busy preparing to move out on 16 March. After living in Adelaide for two and a half years, we were excited that we would no longer need to worry about meeting the residency requirements. We would finally have the freedom to live anywhere in Australia. The only thing missing was our Permanent Residency (PR), which we had not yet received.

That afternoon, our WeChat notification kept going off. I was so busy that I ignored it and thought I would check it later. My husband picked up his phone straight away. Since both of our phones received the notification at the same time, he had a feeling it might be important. Before leaving for Australia on 8 March, our whole family had completed the required health examinations, so we knew the Department had already received the results.

We looked at each other and said, “Could this be our visa approval?” We quickly opened WeChat, and our wish had come true. It was an unforgettable moment of happiness.

Looking back on our journey, we arrived in Adelaide on 18 September 2022 and officially received our PR on 11 March 2025. It took two and a half years to achieve our dream of becoming Australian permanent residents.

The people we are most grateful to are Dorothy and Kingway Migration team.

From helping us choose the right business direction, planning each quarter of our business, monitoring our annual turnover, advising on the timing of investment funds, and helping us improve both our business transactions and turnover in the second year, Dorothy always gave us clear and practical advice. Thanks to her guidance, our business has developed smoothly over the past two years.

Once we met the business requirements and entered the 888 application stage, Melody carefully organised all of our documents, making sure every requirement was met. She checked everything thoroughly and helped us prepare every document step by step.

During the 888 application process, we encountered a small issue. Because we had always maintained honest communication with Dorothy, her professional knowledge, extensive experience, and strong professional ethics helped resolve our concerns quickly. My husband and I were truly grateful.

Our application timeline exceeded all of our expectations. We lodged our 888 application on 31 January 2025, received a request for additional documents on 18 February, completed our health examinations after receiving the request on 25 February, and received our PR approval on 11 March. The entire process took only one month and eleven days.

Before this, everyone had told us that obtaining PR usually took around six months, with even the fastest cases taking three to four months. Receiving our approval in just one month and eleven days was an incredible surprise for our whole family.

We truly believe this outstanding result was made possible by Dorothy and the professional Kingway team. Thank you for your professionalism, patience, attention to detail, and dedication. Your hard work helped us save valuable time, and we feel honoured to have been your clients.

In the future, whether it is for ourselves, our family, or our friends, whenever we need migration services within your area of expertise, Kingway will always be our first choice. Once again, please accept our family’s most sincere thanks.”
