its not about being nice or not, it's about getting the facts right. We need to learn from recent history, the last time in 2010 ,there was a cap & cease, it became a major issue, however the DIAC were legally well protected...... Please read this article very carefully.... http://www.visalawyers.com.au/content_common/newsitem.aspx?id=5e2f05b0-0342-4328-8791-054fbeb176f8 Don't let emotions get in the way, I applied in Feb'08 and I've learnt that the DIAC has made sure that there is no recourse for applicants in the event of a cap & cease except for the refund of visa fee......ask yourself would you legally fight a lost cause......ask yourself are you willing to put down thousands of dollars into something that would yield absolutely no result. If you still want to go ahead, then good luck and make sure you have enough money. for the folks who get what am trying to say here, get your money back and if u really want to go to Australia...use that money to reapply.... Am signing off...this is will be my last post. Good luck and God bless

ok gagan...1st off stop giving false hope to the group. You have been doing this for over 2-3 years. U say u consulted a good lawyer...what's his / her name. Just stop it..... All the members who applied under 176 ( including myself) it's not worth going to court, coz it's a waste of precious time and money. Take your refund. Unless you are really unhappy in the country that you live in and have a lot of money then go for it.

Thanks BPremji & Bloomberg, I am an offshore client 176, I have another question for the forum, should I inform the department that I am out of job at the moment and in search of one.

URGENT feedback required : My org has recently gone thru a downsizing & my job has been terminated, incidentally my application is up for allocation in next month or so... I want to know how would this impact my chances of getting a grant. Also, will CO reject my application knowing that I lost my job & I don't have a new one? Any update/feedback will be appreciated. Thanks Sekena.

Folks, do anyone know how many apps have been logged in between Jul'11 - Dec'11?

just a 3 day update on allocation dates, considering 21st & 22nd May was a Sat & Sun.

Hi, I have a question about the Police Certificates, when I applied a couple of years back I had submitted 2 sets of Police clearance certificates (PCC), one from the birth country and other from the country I live in. Since I haven't taken up residency in my birth country after applying for Australian migration. My question is do I still need submit PCC from the birth country once I am allocated a CO? Technically I did not take up residency in my birth country, which means the PCC I submitted 2 years back is still valid. Any feedback/response to my question would be appreciated.

Folks, remember the table below, DIAC have no obligation to process Cat 4 within immediately, the standard norm is 18 months, so some of us CAT 4 will need to wait for a longer period. My guess is they might start Cat 5 offshore once they reach end of Jun'11 Cat 4 applicants.

Employment Verification : Hi, I wanted to get some inputs on how the DIAC go about doing their employment verification : Also, do they inform the applicant that they are doing a verification? who do they normally call for verification? Do they disclose to the employer that they are calling from the Australian immigration Or is it anonymous? Any further inputs that you can share with me would be helpful. Thank you all.
