Hi, Anybody out there who has/had applied for Victoria's state sponsorship as a Software Engineer(261313). Please let me know asap, need to know few details. Any pointers/suggestions are always appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Last year I got my skills assessed from ACS for my occupation but that time I had only 2 years of experience. Now, as i have completed 3 years so want to get my skills assessed for 3 years to claim those extra 5 points. Do i need to lodge a new request with ACS or can i reopen the same application? please guide. Anybody faced the same situation?

Thanks Ballac and catbin... i heard from my CO on 29 May. I actually called up DIAC inquiry number and from them i came to know that i already had a CO assigned to my application. So i sent him an email and immediately next morning he replied me asking for few additional documents. It took me around 3 weeks for me to produce PCC, once i submitted after one week i got my Visa. I will suggest if you should call DIAC, may be your case has already allocated but he/she might not have contacted you. All the very best for your decisions. Cheers. Punj

I got my visa grant today :-) and all the best for your decision :-) yeah its tough to wait but "all wll that end well" :-)

Hi, Can anybody guide me whether or not a person whose occupation is on SOL list instead of CSOL apply for State sponsorship? Thanks! Punj

Many congratulations dexter :-) ​when was the case officer allocated to your application ?

Okay let me give you more details: I entered my TRN, dob, passport number and the. Country but hen I click on Next button every time I get the below message : This service is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later. so I think this is a problem with whole system and it can't no be a TrN specific. What say? h e you also applied for skilled migrant visa (189 or190 or 489)

After entering details on this page it's saying "temporarily unavilable" :-(

Please share the DIAC email where I can contact them for my visa enquiry. It been 4 months and I am yet to hear from a case officer. I tried calling then on tel:+611300364613 but after a waiting time of half an hour they disconnected :-( Please advise. Thank you.

Aha ! Congratulations Nishit ... No mate I am yet to hear from them but glad to hear that you got CO. hopefully you will get positive result also :-) have also uploaded all he documents including medical(link is disappeared bit evidence o medical is still in recommended status), PCC uploaded. If you don't mind pleas what your email of where I can contact you, need to know certain things ! Punj

Just too curious to know if anybody's application has been assigned to a case officer. I lodged visa application on 21 jan but yet to hear from DIAC. Allocation time in website I'd reduced to 8 weeks from earlier 10 weeks but I don't know why my application has not been allocated. anybody else faced the same issue?

Hi Cheena -Is your application assigned to Case Offcer? even i lodged visa application on 21 Jan but i am still waiting for CO... i checked they have even reduced the allocation times from 10 weeks to 8 weeks. bit tensed; cant even wait... share your application status...!!!

Hi Amit - Any updates on Case officer?

You are on a right track ... Just wait for a case officer .. Once he/she is assigned to your application; 'll guide you accordingly ... CO will tell you when you need to take up PCC... You can see the status receive after couple I days ... For me also it took some time to reflect this status ... ​all the best for your application !!

Congrats buddy !!! All the best for your new innings !!!
