Dear XXXXX

Hope you are well,

Recently It has been noticed that Mr Dan Tehan, the current Minister for Social Services had made the determination on the Assurance of Support. The details can be found here:
https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2018L00425

Under current new requirement, the taxable income for sponsor will almost double the required income of assurers for 143 Visa (Contributory parent visa) compared with original one, and the years required to meet the requirement has increased from 2 years to 3 years. I understand that it’s a normal legislative process. However, it is unreasonable that this decision took effect suddenly without disclosure or public hearing beforehand.

As we all know the processing time of 143 Visa applications currently is 38 months, this determination took effect immediately affect all Australian Citizens and Permanent Residents who have parents overseas and have already lodged a 143 visa application for their parents.

At that time when they lodged 143 Visa applications for their parents, every tax payer had already self-assessed to ensure they can pass the AOS assessment in accordance with the original AOS requirements, hence they willing to pay thousands of dollars application fee to apply this visa.

It is really mean that after they have been waiting for years, the requirement suddenly changed without any buffer period. The tax payers who have lodged 143 Visa applications may not satisfy the new income requirements as it almost doubled up the previous requirement.

This unfair determination is very likely to waste thousands of dollars of application fee for each applicant, and most importantly, put local residents away from their parents for more years, maybe forever.

As the ruling party of a democracy country, the decision should not be made in such a way. The change would greatly affect the reunion of thousands of hardworking taxpayers, but there was not even a little bit of disclosure or public hearing beforehand.

The hasty decision gave no time for families with AoS due to find another plan and created a barrier between a huge number of the local residents and their parents. It’s challenging the fundamental group of the society, it’s not right and not fair.

According to online petition, we have demands as followings,

We demand that the new amendment to AoS income requirement to strike down by the Federal Parliament

We demand that the AoS income requirement to be restored to the previous standard in which is calculated base on the Newstart allowance payment amount instead of Newstars income cut-off amount

Or at least, we demand a transitional policy to be imposed which allow all  AoS Assurer for 143/864 visa applicants that have lodged their application for a 143/864 visa before 1 April 2018 to be subject to the previous income requirement criteria for AoS.

As the Shadow Minister for Families and Social Services, would you please help to abolish the determination? If it’s not possible, could you help to find some transitional plan so that the change happens in a smooth way instead of a bad sudden surprise? It would be very much appreciated if you could help in some way.

Thank you very much for your time reading this, appreciate your help and await for your reply.

Yours faithfully,

tinacookie

AOS是什么？

将心比心。如果你收到的信都是一个模板的，你怎么看？

这个回应很专业了，起码有他们工党的立场，也明确指出不公平的问题，以及糖宝政府已经一步步地再给新移民和多元文化HARDSHIP，再这么下去只会变本加厉，可能所有新移民都会要求抵澳15年后拿PENSION。

其实福利还是属于这个国家大多数人的，特别富的阶层说真的受这个影响不大，他们是”精英 少数派“，一旦底层的人开始受影响，我相信那些自以为事不关己的中产也会逐渐被波及和被剥夺一些权益。有时候不能老想着多少人懒还拿福利，要想着这么幸苦，自己万一有一天需要帮助也能得到这些福利，一旦福利没有了，你再努力以后也没有了。

大家都说过了，这只是个模版，建议大家根据自己的自身情况酌情加减。

是的，还有写信的时候请把名字写上，这也是对人家的尊重

frankkkkk

大家给不同的人发时 请把倒数第二段的As the Shadow Minister for Families and Social Services 进行修改。
咱们一定要加油，让那些政客听到咱们的声音，过了5月 如果没有议员提出反对 就会更难改了

我觉得如果量大到一定程度
会自动被归到spam里。。。

单独写了3封信，没用模版，发给了3个参议员。。不知道有没有用。
虽然我收入够，但是这个修改就是扯淡。今年能翻倍，明年还能翻倍，总有让你收入不够的时候

对我就是这么觉得的，或者哪天想个什么点子就拍脑袋出政策了。

请问能将你收到的回信内容附件转给我吗？我准备拟一封信给电视台的current affair. 以求媒体曝光，需要一些议员为复的证据以备说服力。

同时，呼吁大家除了给议员信外，也能给媒体投诉以寻求曝光这种政策制订的不公平来增加关注焦点，给议员有反对此动议的动力。

我将我的email 地址私信给你，谢谢!

That's the point.

我收入也够，同样反对。

但我不赞成群发邮件，发太多太滥反而引起反感。

让子弹再飞一会

我收到回复以后又根据自己家的情况重述了一下立场和申诉请求，希望有帮助

symeteor

更新下，收到了clare的回信……
和顶楼一样，应该是复制粘贴

micfox001

他这个回复都是政客的语言伪术。

从头到尾他只是在列举一些妈妈是女人的事实。 并没有说他们打算怎么办。
