Hi, I am living and working in Cairns, QLD as a cook. My employer is ready to sponsor me. I have done certificate 3 in cookery and advanced diploma in management. I can do certificate 4 in couple of weeks as well because I have studied almost all the units of it as part of advanced diploma. I have valid IELTS with 6 each. I am currently on TR 485 visa which is expiring in 3 months. My question is; can I apply for PR and what type of visa I should go for? Also, how much time do I have for all this? because I have heard that new rules are coming on 1st of july 2013. Does anyone have any information what kind of changes coming in? Please help. I am in chaos! Also, if anyone can give an advice about some good lawyers/immigration agents in Cairns? Thanks! P.S: Has anyone recently applied for RSMS 187 as cook OR any PR visa as cook?

Hi, Is anyone applying or have recently applied for RSMS 187 visa from Far North Queensland? I have a situation here to discuss and its really urgent! Please drop me your email address here in reply OR drop an email at nitecreatures@hotmail.com. Your prompt response and help in this regard will be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Hi ginz, My TR 485 is according to old rules and regulations which is due to expire in couple of months. Would immigration apply new rules on my PR visa (RSMS 187) when my TRA was according to old rules and visa was granted following them. Regards, ​Yazzi

Hello, ​my question is Do I really need Cert. IV to apply for RSMS now? I have already done Cert. III and Advanced Diploma which overall is advance course of Cert. IV.

Hi, I have a question. I'm currently on TR 485 visa. Do I need Certificate IV in Hospitality (Commercial Cookery) to apply for my RSMS 187 as a cook when I have Certificate III in Hospitality (Commercial Cookery) and Advanced Diploma in Hospitality Management? Thanks, ​Yazzi

Hi, I am currently on a TR visa subclass 485. I have to lodge my RSMS in a couple of weeks time as a cook in QLD. I have Certificate III in Hospitality (Commercial Cookery) and Advanced Diploma in Hospitality. I have all my documents ready and my employer has already done his paper work for my visa 187. Now, my lawyer is saying I need Certificate IV in Hospitality (Commercial Cookery) to lodge my visa application OR I have to show 2 years of past experience as a full-time along with Cert. III as cook. Now, I do not understand the point of getting a Cert. IV when I have Advanced Diploma which is advanced course of Cert. III. Why immigration needs that when it was not required for my TR 485. I am so confused. My employer is ready to sponsor me. Now, what option do I have? Has anyone gone through this recently? The chaos I must say! Thanks, Yazzi
