Request for a second AFP check today. My middle name wasn't on the first version and apparently that is not okay.

Have you got your nomination approved?

i have sent it, but no reply is coming up

I reckon something happened to their email system.

I sent one email to them this morning and got the auto reply with no update.

10 minutes ago, I tried again but didn't receive anything up to now.

can somebody post a link to the spreadsheet so I can update my timeline there

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BcNOlnXc0F2QgYweRiQUYgH8LOgdmSEn-9rkxTkIlBk/edit#gid=106844240

Ok, ppls, finally my waiting is over! I just got a confirmation that my PR has been granted. The whole process took 6.5 month. Phew...

 

Best all of you!

Congrats!

Last year, were there any visa grants in the first week of the year? I am concerned that there have been practically none since the new year, and I'm worried that it is a sign that something unique is happening at immi this year.

After checking the old records, I found that Jan 2015 got even lesser approvals than Dec 2014.

Dec 2014 got about 20 and Jan 2015 only got 15.

When I looked into the spreadsheet. I noticed that there were more error.

My nomination date was changed by someone to a wrong date.

Could everyone please spend a bit of time to check and fix your timeline when you look into it next time?

Does AutoUpdate Email Notification still shows Early July?

No update. Still says 24 Dec 2015.

Just noticed that someone ruined all June's records in the Google spreadsheet...

any auto reply update from immigration

No update at all.

No it is illegal brother, we can not cancel till we get the permit residency this is what my migration agent told me when I ask same question.

Then you should think of changing your MA.

Obviously, Medicare is considered as adequate arrangements for health insurance and when I cancelled my private insurance, the staff at insurance company confirmed this with me again.

Besides, you cannot exempt from Medicare Levy any more as soon as you lodge your PR visa application. So you if want to keep your private insurance, you have to pay double.

with bridging visa you can have medicare card. different colour and just for 1 year but still good

Not for everyone. I got my Medicare card that is valid for 5 years.

Not sure if it's a bless and/or a mistake.

Guys i need your help one question,my company is going to change ABN but Company name will remain Same does it going to effect visa or in visa processing

it will happened within a month so,now i m getting worried

Help if anyone know about that.

After you lodge your visa application, you can apply for Medicare immediately.

And after you get your Medicare card (even the temp card), you can stop your private insurance.

I did this a couple of monthly ago without any issue.

They haven't updated this auto-reply email, as it says Email Updated on 24 December 2015 at the top of the message.

its Wednesday, what is an auto_update email saying today??????????

We are currently allocating ENS and RSMS applications that were lodged early July 2015.

She applied on 7th July.

I believe we are talking the same person. :wink:

I saw one person got approved today from another forum.

She applied for visa in early July, but not sure about the exact date.

Yes I am using MA. But some how my degree certificates are missing (not transcripts), so CO can't see my educational details. Hence CO asked for educational certificates and my MA in general term he used name "transcripts "

This is weird. You are from transition stream. Why did CO ask for degree certificate...

This should have been assessed while applying for visa 457 and shouldn't be required for visa 186.

Has anyone who lodged their visa on 2nd July heard anything yet? I have had my nomination approved since May and now waiting 169 days so far for PR... :mad:

It's actually starting to really bother me that we have heard nothing as I did the application myself and starting to wonder if I have made some sort of error in the application ARGHHH

The biggest mistake we have made is submit nomination and visa application separately.

If you submit visa application after getting nomination approved, you got the lowest priority.

Thanks guys.

 

I was checking the google doc on this website and the doco has some users who applied on July(even mid of July) and got their PR. I am hoping that they are doing July and also maybe the applications lodged on June but missing documentation.

I called the immigration office the other day and this lady told me that some applicants just lodge an application which doesnt have any supporting documents and that's why the processing times are getting longer most of the times.

 

So I believe if you lodged an application it's important to keep the docos valid and dont slow down your or other's processing time.

If you look at those approved July application, you will find that most of then submit their nomination in or before July.

I think they were just lucky to get their nomination and visa application processed together.

According to the old records, immi office did this a lot but not for everyone.

Hi everyone.i have been following this forum for a long time...i would like to share with you guys that I have got my pr yesterday afternoon.all the best to everyone who are waiting for their pr.your pr is on the way.cheers..

my timeline

nomination 29 June

visa 30 June

No contact from immi

nomination and visa grant 8 December

Congrats!

I am going to overseas next week end, will return month end. My 457 expires on 21/Dec.

 

BVB costs $140 and you have to submit in-person in immigration office (no online process). It took 5 days to get approval, but as per immigration it is necessary to apply before two weeks of travel date. You have to provide substantial reason for your travel and duration must not exceed 3 months. And also I think, you can't apply BVB from overseas (not even extension). Bridging visa A will only allow you to remain in Australia only after your 457 expires and it is valid only when you are in Australia. Go through with this link https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Visa-1/020-

I applied BVB once before and it was granted onsite immediately. Seems like even bridging visa takes longer to be processed...

One of my friend just got her PR.

She applied her visa on 26/06/2015. CO contacted her on 20/11/2015 for second instalment.

Her application status changed to finalised 10 minutes ago.

Interesting.

No one got visa application approved today up to now.

Quick question-I don't have immi user name & password but I have TRN. Is their any way I can see my file cause MA I not giving me immi details?

create your own immi account and import the application by using that TRN

Hi any one know when nomination is being approved so it is easy for visa application because no criminal history and all clear?

any one have any idea?

Ask your employer or your employer's MA
