  3. Hi All, my application lodged 12/12/2014....waiting I received this long auto-reply from Immi: **This is an automated response. Please do not respond to this email** Email Updated on 22 April 2015 IMPORTANT INFORMATION Thank you for your email. This email is verification that we have received your email and are in the process of actioning it. You may expect a reply within five (5) working days, however please be aware that if your query is addressed by this email or does not relate to an ENS/RSMS application already lodged you will not receive an individual response. Please do not send duplicate emails as this may cause delays in processing. This mailbox is for post-lodgement enquiries only. If your enquiry does not quote a TRN or file number for a relevant, un-finalised subclass 186 or 187 Nomination or Visa application, you will not receive an individual response. If you have not lodged a subclass 186 or 187 nomination or visa application and would like information regarding these subclasses please visit the Department website that at the following link: · I have a pre-lodgement enquiry Please note that all emails concerning your case must be sent directly to your processing team as referenced in the subject line of the email from the department .Please do not send emails directly to case officers. * Current system issue regarding attaching documents- Please read* Clients are advised that we are currently experiencing a system issue whereby documentary evidence is being requested for secondary applicants when lodging a Nomination. Please note that this is displaying in error as all secondary applicant information is required at the visa application stage. Clients are advised to attach information regarding the organisation as this is the only documentary evidence required at the nomination stage. CONTACTING THE PROCESSING CENTRE Please note that all email correspondence must now be sent to the nsw.pse@immi.gov.au mailbox only, regardless of the state where the application is being processed or whether you have received correspondence from another mailbox. If you have sent an email to either vic.pse@immi.gov.au or wa.pse@immi.gov.au please do not send a duplicate email. All emails previously sent to VIC or WA mailboxes will be automatically redirected to NSW PSE Mailbox It is important that you are specific in the subject line of your email as this will ensure your email is efficiently filtered to the correct team. · Please note the Team reference in the subject line of email received from the Department and please put the Team reference in the subject line of your return email – for example if the subject line has “Team 1” then reply with “Team 1 (and your TRN or file number)” in the subject line. · If you do not know what team is processing your application then please put the TRN or file number in the subject line Please note that if you are requested to send specific documents by physical mail to PESE then they must be sent to PESE GPO Box 9984 Sydney NSW 2001 regardless of the office where the application is being processed. We are currently allocating ENS and RSMS applications that were lodged in December 2014 QUICK LINKS- Click on the following questions to go directly to the information you require: · How soon after allocation will my application be assessed? · My application was lodged prior to the current allocation date and I have not heard anything? · How do I apply for a bridging visa?(PLEASE NOTE THIS PROCESS HAS CHANGED) · My Health referral letter did not generate · Method of payment · What is a Complete Application? · How do I attach documents to my application? · Acknowledgement letters · Penal Letters · Lodging a Valid Visa Application · Important reminders · Withdrawing an application · Refunds · RCB Advice & Agent Enquiries Processing Timeframes Once your application is allocated, a case officer will attempt to conduct the assessment in a timely manner according to the published service standards. If a decision cannot be made quickly they will email or phone you to request further information. Please note that all applications are assessed by a standard process as required of a Section 65 Delegate and that additional information or documentation is only requested when necessary for a decision to be made. Note that the visa processing officer requesting this information may not be the final decision maker in your case. Where your application is within the published service standard you will not receive a response with regards to status, progress or allocation enquiries. There are a range of factors that can impact the processing time of an application, including: - whether the application was complete at time of lodgement; - how quickly you respond to requests to provide documentation; - complications obtaining health clearances; - if police checks haven’t been completed they may take significant time to obtain; and - checks with third parties to verify claims made in an application. The Department’s published service standards for the processing of ENS/RSMS applications can be found at: http://www.immi.gov.au/about/charters/client-services-charter/visas/8.0.htm While we attempt to finalise all applications as soon as possible, the service standards acknowledge that 25% of cases will be finalised outside of these time frames. Cases are centrally allocated. This means that your application will be allocated to the first available processing officer regardless of the state in which you reside or where you have lodged your application. Generally cases will be allocated by date of lodgement and the delegate may make a decision based on the information accompanying the application. If further information is required, you will be contacted by telephone in the first instance, otherwise an email request for information will be sent with a response timeframe. After this timeframe the case officer will then proceed to a decision. The department has Ministerial direction concerning the priority processing of particular applications. Further information on the priority processing for skilled migration visas is available through Fact Sheet 24a. http://www.immi.gov.au/media/fact-sheets/24apriority_skilled.htm My Application was lodged months prior to current allocation date We publish the current allocation dates to give clients an indication of where their application is sitting within the assessment process. If you have received your acknowledgement letter after lodgement and have attached all necessary documents to your application then please wait for the case officer to contact you if or when required. Health Referral Letters If you are requesting a health referral letter, please note that in the first instance you should log into your online visa application and click on the hyperlink “Organise your health examination”. You must answer the questions listed in order to obtain a referral letter. Please note that where the link is available it is your responsibility to generate your health referral letter. Please ensure that you open the referral letter on a PC and not a Smartphone as you will need to print the letter. If the link is not displayed on your online application, refer this matter to PESE mailbox via email. The subject of the email should state “Organise your health link is not available”. If your case has been allocated to a case officer, please also include their first and surname in the subject line of the application. Method of Payment Please note that a Credit Card surcharge now applies to transactions made using Visa, MasterCard, American Express, JCB and Diners credit cards. The following rates apply: · Visa and MasterCard – 1.08% · American Express and JCB – 1.99% · Diners Club International – 2.91% Since its introduction on 19 April 2014, the credit card surcharge is only liable to be paid by visa applicants when they pay an instalment of, or part of an instalment of, their VAC with a credit card. The credit card surcharge does not apply to the fee for sponsorship and nomination applications. For more information visit the DIBP website information pages: How to pay Bridging Visa Applications Important new information regarding Bridging Visa applications PESE are no longer able to accept emailed bridging visa applications or applications that have been attached electronically to the client’s online application. Clients may only lodge a Bridging Visa application in person at a DIBP Client services counter or by mailing the application form to PESE DIBP GPO Box 9984 Sydney NSW 2001 For more information on Bridging visas please visit the DIBP website at: http://www.immi.gov.au/visas/bridging/ Complete Applications To reduce processing times for applications in the Employer Nomination Scheme (ENS) and Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme (RSMS) clients are requested to lodge complete nomination and visa applications which include all the necessary information for assessment, as prescribed within the document checklist relevant to the type of nomination, or visa application you are seeking to lodge with the department. The benefits for clients and case officers in providing complete applications are that applications will be finalised in a more efficient manner and processing times will be reduced. Document checklists for nomination and visa application made under the Permanent Employer Sponsored visa program are available on the department’s website. See: - Checklist for ENS 186 Nomination applicants - Checklist for RSMS 187 Nomination applicants - Checklist for ENS 186 Visa applicants - Checklist for RSMS 187 Visa applicants Attachments for e-lodged applications All supporting documentation for e-lodged applications should be uploaded through the e-lodge system as they will be automatically filed and linked to your case. To attach documents to your online visa application you will need to login to your ImmiAccount. If you do not have an account you will need to create one to access most online services. Click the link below for information on ImmiAccount: ImmiAccount Information Please note that each file attachment may not exceed 5MB in size. PDF is the preferred file format. If you save your files in other larger formats (JPG or BMP for example) you may exceed your ImmiAccount data limit which is 300MB (i.e. a total of 60 x 5MB files). Please note that attachments forwarded by other means may cause delays in the finalisation of the application. After uploading your documents please send an email to this mailbox with the following in the subject line: “Team…..TRN XYZ123456 Documents Uploaded” In the event of a successful document upload there is no need to attach the same documents to the email.

Please do not send a duplicate email to this mailbox. Attachment Reminder The Department requires high resolution coloured scanned copies of original documents. These documents should be certified prior to being uploaded to an application. Please note that PDF format attachments are preferred. Having difficulties receiving your acknowledgement letter or other DIBP correspondence? An increasing number of Email service providers are including spam blockers that can affect the delivery and display of some Email messages. To ensure that you are receiving emails from the department please check the settings on your junk mail filter. These filters may prevent legitimate emails from reaching your inbox. We recommend adding the Department’s domain (immi.gov.au) to your list of safe senders. For further directions regarding Yahoo, Hotmail or Google mail, please see the following links: Yahoo https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mail-for-desktop/SLN4910.html?impressions=true Hotmail http://onlinehelp.microsoft.com/en-us/msn/ff808591.aspx Google http://support.google.com/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2368132 Penal Clearance Letters Clients are reminded that Penal Clearance certificates from Singapore, Japan, The Netherlands, Fiji, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Spain or Hong Kong, require a letter from the Department. An email must be sent tonsw.pse@immi.gov.au with “Penal Letter” in the subject line requesting a letter. Clients must quote their application TRN. Lodging a Valid Visa application The process from 22 November 2014 for lodging employer nominations for subclass 186 and 187 visas via eForms will require the Transaction Reference Number (TRN) be entered in order for the nomination to be validated in the Department’s online lodgement system, ImmiAccount. This must occur before you can continue to lodge the visa application using the eForm. If the validation of the employer nomination fails then you will not be able to lodge a visa application until the TRN for the employer nomination has been validated. The requirement for a visa application to contain a TRN for the nomination in the eForm means that an employer nomination and a visa application eForm cannot be lodged at the same time after 22 November 2014. An Employer nomination eForm must always be successfully lodged and the nomination paid for before you can complete an application to satisfy the criteria of paragraph 5.19(2)(a) of the Regulations (employer nomination eForm 1395), 1114B and 1114C (visa application eForm 1408). Should you have any questions, please go to the Agents Gateway and direct your query using the appropriate radio button: http://www.immi.gov.au/gateways/agents/contact/feedback/ Warning message on your visa application If an online warning message is displayed indicating that the nomination details entered into the visa application could not be matched, please check with your nominator to ensure that the Transaction Reference Number (TRN), visa category (ENS 186/RSMS 187) and stream (Direct Entry, Temporary Residence Transition, Agreement) are correct and that the nomination has been lodged. It is your responsibility to confirm these details, if you are satisfied that the information is correct, please proceed with your application. ANZSCO Please note that the following ANZSCO- ASCO Correlation table (July 2010) is the only DIBP endorsed table: http://www.immi.gov.au/employers/_pdf/asco-anzsco-correlations-all-occupations.pdf The ANZSCO listed in the approved Nomination must match the ANZSCO listed in the visa application. AFP Clearances Australian State Police Clearances are not acceptable. Only “Complete Disclosure” Certificates issued by the Australian Federal Police (AFP) are acceptable for the PESE program. Withdrawing an Application You can withdraw the application (or individual applicants from the application) at any time before we make a decision about your application by completing form 1446. This form may be downloaded from the DIBP website at the first link below. If you are withdrawing individual applicants from the application, please specify their full name and date of birth. If the dependent applicant is over the age of 18 years we will also require that they sign form 1446 indicating their desire to withdraw from the application. For more information please click on the links below: http://www.immi.gov.au/allforms/ https://www.immi.gov.au/FAQs/Pages/can-i-withdraw-my-visa-application.aspx Refunds Nomination Employer Nomination Scheme nomination applications are submitted under Regulation 5.19(2) of the Migration Regulations 1994. According to the Regulations there are no provisions for a payment of a refund regarding a Regulation 5.19(2) nomination fee. Please note that the nomination fee is a requirement at the time of lodging your nomination application; this payment is an application charge and does not relate to the processing of the application, or if the application is granted or refused. Visa Refunds for the visa application charge, under Regulation 2.12(F) of the Migration Regulations 1994, are only provided in very limited circumstances. It is not intended to cover situations where an applicant (or a decision maker) subsequently decides that the application was a ‘mistake’ because, for example the applicant: • changes their mind about pursuing the application or • does not satisfy a criterion for visa grant or • claims it was a mistake to have applied because their visa application was unsuccessful (that is, the applicant states that they would never have applied had they known their application would not be successful) or • considers, in retrospect, that they applied for the wrong class of visa or · withdraws their visa application due to the nomination having been refused. In such situations the applicant is not entitled to a refund of the first instalment. Pre-Lodgement Enquiries The Processing Centres are focussed on processing your visa applications efficiently. If you have a pre- lodgement enquiry please consult the Department website to obtain information on the requirements of applying for an ENS or RSMS visa. The following links provide direct access to the appropriate section: - Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186) - Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme (subclass 187) RCB Advice Please note that RCB advice should be sent to the RCB specific mailbox rcb.advice@immi.gov.au To expedite processing of applications we require separate emails for each RCB advice (i.e. one email per client). Please populate the subject line of the email in the following format: “Recommended or not recommended, Company name, nominee (if known) and Transaction Reference Number (TRN- if known)” Enquiries related to the processes of Regional Certifying Bodies (RCB) If your enquiry relates to the processes or timeframes for RCB advice please contact the relevant RCB, a list of contacts can be located at http://www.immi.gov.au/Visas/Pages/187.aspx - under the EmployersTab “Who can nominate a skilled worker for this visa” Agent Enquiries All Agents are to please direct enquiries through the Agents Gateway located on the department’s website at – http://www.immi.gov.au/gateways/agents/contact/feedback/ Policy questions from Registered Migration Agents The Agents Gateway provides information for registered migration agents on visa applications, legislation, registration as well as useful links resources.

  4. Hi, Let's clear some air regarding change in immi status over the weekend. This is what immi released: [h=3]New application statuses[/h]The status of In Progress is being retired and three new statuses introduced. Application Received – indicating your application has been successfully submitted and will be assessed within advertised application processing timeframes. Information Requested – indicating an immigration officer has assessed the application and found that more information is required, so they have requested that you provide further evidence in support of the application. Assessment in Progress – You have provided all the requested information. We might proceed to make a decision on your application. We could also ask you for further information. In this case, the status will return to Information requested.
