Hi , don't worry , the hospital will probably already be cleared to sponser and the immigration dept can usually work to a certain date on a 457 .If requested. Ours only took a few weeks and the immigrstion officer put a condition on so we can validate in Oz rather than waiting for passports to be sent off and it being stamped.

I work in Sales/Marketing for Holiday Company, ran my own Company for 5 years doing the same.
I have a job sponsor, however we are waiting to get his Company approved and then hopefully they will accept me?
I bet you can't wait to get over there?
We hope to move to Melbourne as I have family there!
I wish you all the luck in the world and hope your paperwork comes through that you need x
Hi,
Do you have any idea how long it takes to become an approved sponsor? As i'm in the same boat at the mo.
That's reassuring. Haven't yet submitted ours but we have till mid January so should be ok. Its just the uncertainty of it all that's killing me!
Trust me, that won't go away unfortunately. We have done nothing but be uncertain about it all. We know it will be set in stone once we receive the visas but until then it doesn't feel real.
I think that the best moment for us will be when we get our visas and book the flight. At least then we will have a confirmed date of when we go, until then we will be in Limbo =(
But fingers crossed for all of us waiting for our Visas!!
My husband is in the process of formally adopting our 11 yr old (we got together when she was 2) We need the adoption certificate before we can apply for her new passport. Just waiting for a date to go for the hearing...taking forever.
I'm a nurse and have a job at the Royal Perth Hospital. I just hope we get everything sorted in time. What do you do?
Hope Mr barnett keeps his word and keeps the rph open
Mally

Thanks but that's not really a problem as we'll have been there a few years by then, may not even be working there at that time. Plus the hospitals actually relocating, not closing. Latest is that some services will stay at Royal Perth site

I think I may have done this the wrong way round!!!
The company have informed me that the 457 will take 4-6 weeks and is a done deal, bar a problem on the chest X-ray. That's all been sent off and the flights have been booked (25th October). Now here is the problem...My wife is on the visa also, but has been asked to have an aditional medical check that will take 2-4 weeks to get the results. Can my part of the visa be completed independently, or are we a package?
My thoughts were for her to come across on a holiday visa and hope all is well ( being positive!!) I don't want to think what will happen if she doesn't get in!!
