daffodilly

Hi all, 

I have been reading quietly and checking my immi account regularly.  Finally received  our PR.

Here are the details

Occupation: Early Childhood Teacher 

STATE: NSW

Country: LR (Singapore)

Number of applicants: 4

ENS 186 (TRT)+ Nomination applied on18th June 2018

PR granted: 4th March 2019 - direct grant

I can't imagine the pain of waiting longer than this.  A  big hug and heaps of good luck to those who are waiting.  It would be great if someone updates my details on the spreadsheet under June.  This site has helped me immensely both with my 457 and 186.  

Its only been 4 months since I applied and I already feel like screaming, imagine those of you waiting for a long time.  Why on earth is the processing time increasing?  Never thought it will be a painful process when we moved here.  

Thinking of everyone waiting for a long time with no news.  Hope the situation changes soon and files move faster.

“NO” no problem at all if as long as company ABN, name, position and structure remain same. And you have to update to immi the changes of circumstances including organisational chart. Should not be any problem

Good luck !

Wow! This easy?  But my 457 was granted for NSW and it wouldn't matter if I get transferred to another State?  Where can I find information on this?  I don't want to speak to my managers till I confirm that this will not cause any issues with my application.

Thank you!

I'm depressed reading the miserable waiting stories   Praying the limbo ends for everyone.  

I have a question.  I had made plans thinking I will get my PR by end of the year but now looks like its going to take time.  May I know if getting transfer (same position/same ABN) to another state with the same company will affect my visa outcome in any way.  I really have to move state by the end of the year.  Please advice.  Thank you in advance.

Congrates ! Mate

Dear Muhammad,

can you share your experience about your child medical examination. You must have children. Did you have any issue regarding your child ?. My son has issue with speaking language in full sentence and toilet training etc. His age is only 3and half. Eventually it seems like immigration medical officer makes it an issue. Now they did not ask any further documents yet but they will ask soon as it appears in my immi account inbox about health examination.

Did they ask you anything like this, please share.

or anyone here in this forum has similiar experience like this. Please share.

Thanks

Hi, I don't think that not being able to speak in full sentence and not being toilet trained at 3.5 years alone can be an issue.  There are other factors a developmental specialist will look into before deciding if its an issue.  For example, can the child follow simple direction, does he/she respond when others call spoken too etc (just to mention a few) .

Waiting days gets updated automatically - no need to do touch those cells.

We had to roll back the spreadsheet - as we lost a few months - that's why you probably went missing.

Thank you! But mine did not get updated automatically  

Congrats to all those who received their grants and hope those who have been waiting long will be granted soon.  

Quick question regarding the spread sheet.  How do you all know which processing team and also does the waiting days get updated automatically or we update it?  BTW, I was deleted from the spreadsheet twice so far.  I am kinda preparing myself for a long long wait after reading all the posts here.

Hi daffodils 

I think it’s under the Intra Company Transfer. 

Oh I see.  I have never heard of that term.  Thanks for that.  My question is whether its best to stay where I am now or move.  

I have a question after reading some of the posts.  My company has few branches and the branch I have been working for 2 years have had many years of difficulty finding locals to fill my position and thus they recruited me from overseas.  However, we have managed to recruit many locals recently in my branch.  Does anyone think that this will be of any problem with my nomination/visa? Our other branches are still suffering though and we generally have shortage of staff in my position.  Should I stay with the same branch or it would be better to move to a nearby branch that is in need?  Does the immigration look at the general need of the company or individual branches?  Both could be done.  Please advise.  Thank you!

Really, some one got in four months only?

Well I was just skimming through it and surely saw a couple showing less than 4 months.  I could be wrong.  Do check it out for yourself

How exciting! Check through that spreadsheet and you'll be able to see exactly how long it's taken everyone that uses this forum

Thank you! I have not seen this spreadsheet.  Looks like some have gotten in less than 4 months.  It's okay to be wishful then  

Hi all, 

New to this side of the forum.  Finally we can apply for the 186 TRT.  We should be lodging soon.  Any recent applicant in this stream here?  

Occupation: Early Childhood Teacher from LR country.  Any idea how long will this take?  When we first moved here, I estimated 4 to 6 months.  I know that is wishful   What is the fastest you have seen here for TRT recently?  Thanks.

Which spreadsheet are you looking at? There are plenty of recent(ish) file allocations and approvals in June. I would send you the link but Im on my phone in a meeting.

Really?  Please share, thank you!

You really think its hard??

Use the spreadsheet, that may help you.

Thank you! saw the spread sheet nothing much for May/June?  

Hi all, 

Just wondering if anyone interested to join here if you are under TRT stream.  There seems to be lots of people in the ENS 186 thread both DE and TRT and I find it hard to search for processing trend in TRT alone.  It would be easier if there is a group for TRT alone.  

We are submitting Nomination and application together through agent in a couple of days.  Early childhood Teacher from LR country.  Read that people are waiting for a year or more and its really scary :( 

thanks for joining

Why don't you see if you are eligible to apply for 186 sponsored by current company?

I have not fulfilled the 2 year requirement yet. I will read up on DIBP website, thanks!

Hi all,

I hope to get some clarification on the 187 visa. I have been thinking this visa is usually applied by employers and their MA but I see many of you doing it yourself (I only read some posts on random pages).

I am on 457 but need PR badly as I have brought kids along and cost of living is really high.

If I can find an employer willing to sponsor me for 187 how do I make the move with least disruption to my current visa?

What documents do I need for 187 visa in addition to what I have submitted for the 457?

Can I do this myself or I will need a MA? Do I pay for the MA or the company will do it?

Sorry for so many silly questions, just trying to figure out my options

Thank you in advance!

What I am wondering is whether you will need to have actual experience as a manager or will it be sufficient to have worked in child care/early education for three years including one year within the last 3 years.

From what I understand, we need to have some leadership role performed? Mine is some teaching and some managing.

Hi my skills assessment came through early August as it did take the full 60 working days.

I did struggle with declarations from previous employers who did not seem to have me on their records?...

but did manage to get past 8 years evidenced so managed a positive result.

Completed PTE yesterday and just lodged EOI....,exciting times.

keep going....

Congrats Big girl! How exciting :-)

Did you have the employment statement for every centre you have worked?

How did you send? By registered post or courier?

Thank you!

Nice to see more people over here :-)

I just completed gathering my documents and planned to send it next week. My work experience consists of many centres, some as short as 6 months. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I think so. But it's not my area. If childcare manager is not on the csol then director might be. Past that I field out to the masses for advice

Actually applting for jobs is tricky. The job I do now is labeled in Oz as my managers superior's title. But with my job spec. Things are just different.

Ahh... Thanks for that info! will come handy one day I guess

(need to spell my name right for the @ thing to work)

 

For manager / director I guess it semantics. I manage staff. I direct a play. But Australia seems to use director instead of manager. (Theatrical approach as opposed to actually managing? Or am I just facetious ?)

Oops! My bad on the spelling

Agree on the terms used So we are getting our skills assessed as Childcare Centre Manager to work as Centre Director? Hope I am making sense (LOL!)

Good to find this thread!

I am too preparing to apply for childcare centre manager skills assessment.

How is it going?

@Pricilla101, I thought "Manager" and "Director" refers to the same job, no?
