I GOT MY PR GRANTED TODAY!!

 

Can't speak more highly of my case officer.

 

Good luck everyone else! It's so worth the wait! :biggrin:

YAY - congratulations!!!!

Hi everyone,

 

I have been watching this thread for a long time - since I got to Australia originally in 2011. There's some great advice here and I want to share my timeline so far.. mostly because I can't think of anything else right now!!

 

Nomination was submitted: Unknown

Nomination approved: Unknown

Visa application submitted 26/02/2014 (including all docs and medicals)

Awaiting approval. The DIAC log-in portal says my application is "in process".

 

186 visa, 457 transition scheme, using MA - DR.

 

I am feeling anxious because the company I work for is being sold, so am really hoping that this is approved before the sale is finalised. There's been some good news though for people who's applications were lodged at the same time as mine getting approval quickly though, thanks for sharing.

 

Fingers crossed...:eek:

Good luck Laika! You only submitted 2 days after me, so fingers crossed you will have your decision very soon.

My timeline is :

 

ENS 186 (Labour Agreement stream ) nomination applied: on 08/04/2014

Visa application lodged on : 01/05/2014

Application status : on progress

Can someone tell me what documents do I need to submit apart from Passport, birth certificate, Police certificates ( AFP,ACRO overseas police certificates), I am not sure whether I need to submit P80 form. I would appreciate your advice.

And Can I travel overseas after applying this visa....

thank you

Hi Menuk

My understanding is that you will need to complete Form 80.

Yes, you can travel overseas whilst the application is in progress.

Good luck

Beck
