Applied for 491 Visa, Biometrics and Health check is required, I don't have my passport.

Dear all,

Good day!

I'm in a situation where I applied for 491 Visa - NSW, I received an email requesting me to do the health check and biometrics within a month of time. Recently, I have applied to a job seeking visa, and the process takes at least 3 months. I'm not sure what exactly I should do to get a prolonged timeframe to allow me to receive the passport and do the required documents.

Anyone's help is highly appreciated!

Thank you,
Ahmed Hassan

Hey. How did you proceed with you visa? I have encountered the same problem, any suggestion?

Hi Arshia,

Sure, I have contacted the embassy which held my passport, and they allowed me to pickup my passport and return it within a week. I got my biometrics and health check, then I returned back the passport to the embassy.

Hope that helps you.
