I have known an invitation to succeed with over claimed points, where the points score met the required score after the over claimed points deducted.

We’re at the beginning of looking into moving to Aus, both me and my husband are gathering the paperwork we need to submit to AASW to verify social work qualifications (both child protection social workers). I’m autistic and ADHD, only support I require is ADHD medication. I naively thought that working full time in a profession on the skills shortage without any supports in place beyond a monthly prescription, would be enough to demonstrate my neurodivergence isn’t going to be an excessive cost. Now it’s coming to paying $$$$ for skills assessments, I’m not so confident. Anyone have any experience obtaining a visa as an autistic/ adhd adult? Thanks 

 

 

There is a procedure available that, assessed with professional advice about the complex health criteria, would enable you to develop a considered strategy.

Why not use your UK AMEX?

May I suggest that you consult one of the registered migration agents who posts on this forum for a case assessment?

An 801 application is invalid if an applicant does not hold an 820. Some delegates who intend to proceed immediately from an 820 grant to an 801 grant do not inform applicants about the 820 grant, and some do. This sometimes creates confusion.

Looks as if subclass 482 is going to be deleted.

I’m in the same boat as OP

The titanic!

If your application was capped and ceased, you are deemed not to have made the application and in any case 476 has been deleted, so you cannot reapply.

Apply for a refund of the visa application charge.

The money you spend on ancillary costs was wasted.

Do not complain about being 49. I am 83 and still firing on most cylinders.

The OP might be able to qualify for a Student Guardian visa (subclass 590) that does not as a rule have work rights.

I recall years ago advising a UK solicitor to lodge his own application and charging him a modest fee. After his visa was granted, he told me I had not charged enough and doubled the amount. BTW, solicitors in Australia may give migration advice, even if they know nothing about immigration.

Take advice from one of the registered migration agents who posts on this forum for advice, before applying.

There are numerous factors that can affect the progress of an application. How busy the processing office is, slow responses to overseas investigations, misplaced or lost files and so on. A polite query about the progress of the application would be in order at this stage.

A clause from our service agreement:

We will promptly inform you about significant developments in your case. If your case is not progressing in a timely and satisfactory way we
will let you know why this is so and what we are doing about it. Please note that various authorities might not respond adequately, or at all,
to progress enquiries.

It is more than a moral obligation. If the minister forms the belief that an applicant had no intention of working in the nominating state or territory action (visa cancellation) can and has been taken.

Free advice is sometimes worth what it cost. In some cases, preparing a considered professional opinion takes several hours.

If you apply to more than one state or territory you are unlikely to by invited by any. Check the conditions of all and edit your EoI.

Take Paul's advice.

Do I need to submit another skills assessment application each time I change employer?

No.

You can be asked to pay: visa application charge, health insurance, skills assessment fee (if called for) English test and medical examination fees, police clearances, travel to Australia (not return). I do not assist employers who are not willing to meet all of these costs.

From what you have posted, your interpretation is correct.

DHA are masters of displacing the modifier 'only'.

Well put.I

It can be noted that Canada and NZ immigration do not accept applications from unregistered parties, no matter where they are. 

There are too many backhanders on offer for Australia to do likewise.

Was your agent a registered migration agent.

Who lodged the 500?

Just about to apply for the 143 visa. I am inclined to use an agent (mara registered) but want to get an idea of whether most people use an agent or not and your recommendations based on your experience.  Do agents generally charge an ongoing fee while waiting on the visa to be approved?

1. !t is sound practice to consult a RMA for an assessment, even if you do not retain one to manage an application.

2. In my experience only lawyers do this.
