Applications declared as “Decision Ready” by registered migration agents continue to receive priority allocation. However, due to the unprecedented number of applications lodged in June 2012 we cannot provide an estimated allocation timeframe.

 

If your application was lodged before the dates listed above please explain this in your email and we will respond to you as soon as possible.

 

We are working through our large caseload in the most efficient manner possible and thank you for your patience during this busy period.

 

Post 1 July 2012 electronically lodged Applications

 

 

 

Due to the large influx of applications in June 2012, our capacity to allocate post July 2012 electronic applications has been affected. Decision Ready applications are a priority. We are currently allocating

e-lodged applications received July-August 2012.

 

Attachments for e-lodged applications

 

We appreciate that there have been some challenges around e-lodging attachments.

All supporting documentation for e-lodged applications however should be uploaded through the e-lodge system as they will be automatically filed and linked to your case.

 

Attachments forwarded by other means have been known to go astray causing delays in the finalisation of the application. Please ensure that you are familiar with the advice around attachments on the DIAC website.

 

Information/documents specifically requested by a case officer should be emailed directly to that case officer.

PROCESSING TIMEFRAMES

 

 

 

Once your application is allocated to a case officer they will contact you within 7 working days of your application being allocated.

 

If you have not been contacted by a case officer, and your application was lodged after the above dates, then it has not yet been allocated.

 

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.

INTERESTED IN APPLYING FOR ENS/RSMS?

 

 

 

You will not receive a response to your email if your query relates to any of the following scenarios. Please refer to the following information and where applicable re-direct your query as instructed below.

 

Information about applying for ENS/RSMS

 

The processing centre is not able to respond to pre-lodgement enquiries. The following links to the department’s website however provide information about ENS/RSMS visas:

 

- Information Booklet No. 5 Employer Sponsored Migration

 

- �Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186)

 

- �Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme (subclass 187)

 

- Skillselect

 

Note: While ENS and RSMS visas have been located on the DIAC website within the SkillSelect group of visas this does not mean that clients need to use the SkillSelect system to lodge an ENS/RSMS application. SkillSelect would only need to be used where an employer wishes to nominate a person they have identified through the SkillSelect system.

 

How to lodge an application

 

From 1 July 2012 all applications must be made online. The e-lodgement portal can be accessed from the following link on the DIAC website: http://www.immi.gov.au/e_visa/ens-rsms.htm

 

The processing centres have developed “document checklists” that highlight key information and evidence required in your application. These checklists can be found under SkillSelect on the DIAC website, or you can use the following links:

 

- Checklist for visa applicants

- Checklist for sponsoring employer

 

We encourage you to lodge all required information and supporting documentation with your application. A “complete” application will make the processing quicker.

 

Having difficulties lodging your application on-line?

If you experience any difficulties with this process please ensure that you are familiar with the material at http://skillselect.govspace.gov.au/

 

You can also call the Service Centre on 131 881 who can also assist with pre-lodgment queries or any issues you may be having with lodging applications online.

 

HAVING ISSUES WITH ACKNOWLEDGEMENT EMAILS FOR YOUR SUBCLASS 186 OR 187 APPLICATION?

 

 

 

We have had a number of clients follow-up missing acknowledgement letters where the letter has been sent.

 

A common explanation has been the clients junk mail filter as commonly used in Hotmail or Google. These filters may prevent legitimate emails from reaching your inbox. To ensure that you are receiving emails from the department be sure to check the settings on your junk mail filter.

AGENT ENQUIRIES

 

 

 

 

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. An on-line form is provided for migration agents with complex policy or procedural questions. Registered Migration Agents should re-direct policy enquiries using this on-line form: http://www.immi.gov.au/gateways/agents/contact/feedback/

 

Please note that responses to queries sent to this mailbox will generally only be given on complex enquiries not already covered through legislation and policy documents.

 

ALL OTHER ENQUIRIES

 

 

 

If you have a general enquiry that is not about an application for ENS or RSMS you should consult the Department’s website www.immi.gov.au and/or ring the department’s general enquiry telephone number of 131 881. The processing centre is not able to respond further to your email.

Thank You

Hi, Massimo, I have the similar timeline as yours, I lodged my Nomination and 119 Visa Application Non DRC on 28/05/2012, then received Acknowledgement on 01/06/2012, the difference was I included my girlfriend in my application. Anyway, if you have further info please share with me. I think you and me will hear from the immi soon.

Hi,

My application is a 119 RSMS not-DRC (no MA) in Paramatta and I received the acknowledgment letter on the 2nd June 2012.

 

I am still waiting. I hope I will know something in the next couple of weeks.

Does anyone know what is the difference (in terms of approval time) between DRC and not-DRC?

I see that the DRC from 12 June were granted and I would like to understand if the not DRC will follow by weeks or months.

 

Is there anyone else with my timeline? Which should be my waiting time expectation?

Oh, sorry. Got it now. I missed it before. Thanks.

Pollen227. It says that in the part you quoted.

?mark, The timeline here,r DRC or Non-DRC?

Hi Guys this is latest update from DIAC.

Kind regards,

RBP

Applications declared as “Decision Ready” by registered migration agents continue to receive priority allocation. However, due to the unprecedented number of applications lodged in June 2012 we can not provide an estimated allocation timeframe.

 

If your application was lodged before the dates listed above please explain this in your email and we will respond to you as soon as possible.

 

We are working through our large caseload in the most efficient manner possible and thank you for your patience during this busy period.

 

Post 1 July 2012 Applications

 

Due to the large volume of applications lodged before 1 July 2012 our current allocation of

e-lodged cases is limited.

 

At the moment our system is not readily identifying applications declared as “Decision Ready” by a registered migration agent. As an interim measure we suggest that you send an email to the relevant processing office mailbox advising that the application is decision ready with the TRN number highlighted in the subject line. Please ensure that the application is decision ready.

 

E-LODGED APPLICATIONS AND ENQUIRIES

 

We are currently experiencing delays issuing acknowledgement letters and bridging visas for applications lodged online. This is the result of a system limitation which requires the manual entry of the details of each application in our system. Please note that this also affects the time taken for your application to appear in VEVO.

 

When you complete an application on-line you will receive a Transmission Record Number (TRN) and confirmation of payment (where applicable). Please consider this as evidence that your application was successfully lodged.

 

The timeframes for acknowledgement letters, bridging visas and entry into VEVO are:

Thanks RBP .I logded my app at Parramatta, after 1st of June received Ak letter, it's been so long of waiting.

Hey, RBP, this is great info, at least we know that the cases r being processed. I lodged my case on 31/May, 119both NOM and. Non-DRC Visa. After that I heard nothing from my MA. They getting unhappy that i asked them too many times. My current student visa is going to expire in March 13. Hope im lucky.Im so tired .

Well, I think we still need to wait for a while.

I really got sick of it. Havent heard any NON DRC get aproved around these days on May.

G'day !

Is there anyone submmited NON DRC 119 visa around late May this year ? I lodged my one on 28 May, Ak letter on 1 June, payment accepted same day.

I've been waiting for so long, heard nothing else from immi.

I called them 2 weeks ago, they told me that I used a MA, so if I have any questions I need to ask my MA to contact them not by myself. Is that true ?

And yesterday my employer called again, they still say 8 months for processing time.

I'm getting sick of waiting. I got sick of going to the stupid college, facing the stupid teacher.

Anyone has heard from the immi ?

thanks, for the info.and your friend is good luck. but my agent did not lodge my app with DRC, so i think. i still need to wait.

Hi, everyone, I'm new here.

Im wondering if anyone lodged the 119 via around early June? I haven't got any further info from the immigration.

I appllied through paramatta, Job/Cook, Visa lodged on 28/05/2012

Acknowledgement letter 01/06/2012

I have't heard any further request from immi.

Is there anyone in the same situation like me?

I'm still holding my student visa, and I'll finish my course in Dec 2012.

Any suggestion ?

Can I send email to immi enquiry my processing status, if so , which email I should send to ?:wacko:
