Hi

I am currently about 18 months into my 2 year period I am required to work for my sponsoring employer on a 187 visa and was wondering about the possibility of leaving the position earlier than this time due to unforeseen circumstances. The 2 year period will be up on 12 Jan 2019.

I have recently had my first child and as a result am on maternity leave. I am aware that my maternity leave period does count towards the 2 year period and I will not be due back to work until after this period has been completed. We are currently living off the one income of my partner (as well as my government maternity pay until October this year), which is sporadic at the moment as work is extremely quiet in the area.

Basically, I am interested to know if anybody else has been in a similar situation, and if so, would we have a leg to stand on if we moved away from the area so that my partner can find alternative work. If investigated, could we argue that we did not have financial security and as a result had to go elsewhere?

Thanks in advance :)

Congratulations for your visa!

What's your timeline?

Hi friends i have applied my nomination on Dec 2015 and visa on jan 2016, nomination has been approved on 11 November 2016 and requested medical which has been submitted on 4 December 2016 still waiting for the decision, does anyone know how long they will take to finalize the Result? In my immi account it shows the last update on 4 December 2016.

Hi I was requested medicals on the 14th December and then my visa was granted today (12th jan) [emoji16] shouldn't be too much longer for you.

So happy to announce that at 7am this morning (wa time) my partner and I became residents!!

Absolutely over the moon! Thank you everyone for the support of this forum. Hang in there guys it's a painful wait but it's worth it when the email comes through!

I applied in April. Nom approved mid December and requested to go for medicals for the visa. On my immi account it says the medicals were cleared on the 23rd December now impatiently waiting for the email that hopefully says I'm a resident!

Fingers crossed there's lots of grants this week!

Nope just call them if you applied more than 6 months and ask.

Congratulations! What processing centre had your file?

when you pressed ' information provided' you don't need to do anything for medicals. In fact your reports should be sent to immi the same day after your check online. Don't worry about that! Usually, it may take up to one months when you clear everything. Be patient and waiting for good news! All best for you!

Thanks I've just checked on my immi account and my medical says no action required where as my partners still says processing which I'm expecting will take a couple of weeks as he has type 1 diabetes. Fingers crossed immi are satisfied with everything else in my application as all they requested was the medicals. Praying for a grant before Australia Day!

Myself and my partner were requested to go for our medicals on the 14/12 so we completed them yesterday. Does anybody know how long roughly immi take to look at the medical results?

Also on my immi account it tells me to click on the 'information provided' once I've provided the necessary information. So shall I press that now since we've been for our medicals even though we haven't attached anymore documents into my application? Sorry if that doesn't make any sense! Getting so impatient now and with Christmas around the corner I have a feeling immi are going to slow down even more.

Thank you all for your replies I'll see if he can get any tests he has had here printed out and signed by his GP before going for the medical.

Fingers crossed this goes smoothly as it's been such a stressful few months. Nomination was approved today and only document they requested for the visa was the medicals so just this one last hurdle to get over!

We are already in Australia as applied for our 187 visa onshore so he is registered with a GP here. His first hba1c readying was 8 and that was back in February his most recent one is 8.9 so hopefully that will still be ok. We will look through diabetes Australia thanks advice

Has anyone got any experience with going for a medical that has type 1 diabetes. My partner is a type 1 diabetic and we need to book our medicals. We want to make it as straightforward as possible so can anyone advise if there are any additional documents he will need to take to the medical with him?

He's only just recently had a hba1c blood test which came back 8.9 for him this is good as his GP in the U.K. Told him to aim to keep it under 10 however we've been told by a pharmacist over here that 8.9 is high and he should be aiming between 6-7.

Woohoooo! So happy for you Danielle! Told you to be positive! I bet that if you had had your medicals submitted you could have had the visa by now!! Almost there!! :-*

Thank you!! If you are free this weekend we should catch up.

I know I can't believe it!! I'm so shocked that it's only medicals they asked for. Nick has type 1 diabetes so hopefully that doesn't cause too much of a problem

One step closer nomination has just been approved!! I'm soo happy as we've been told by immigration over the phone and 2 MA's to withdraw and resubmit because my boss sold 40% of the business since we applied creating a new ABN but as of this morning it's approved!

As for my visa they've just requested medicals.

There is a possibility before new year coz they are working next week as well. They are just close on public holidays as i spoke with operator.We can only hope. Which team is your ?

Vic team 4. What about you? I think it will get refused though because the business changed ABN since we applied so immi asked my employer to clarify so we've submitted the reason along with supporting documents from their accountant etc so basically waiting to hear weather we need to resubmit under the new ABN or not

Normally they takes 4-6 weeks after getting documents to decide.

Thanks for the heads up! Looks like it will after the new year now then. I think the wait is harder now I've actually had some contact from a case officer I was a lot more patient before they got in touch

Is there an average wait time once documents are submitted?

Info requested on 11/11 submitted on 29/11 the 8/12 was the 28th day since they requested so I know it's not even been a week yet but so impatient now and keep checking my immi account to check!

It was VIC team 4 that had my case

Hi Daniel, it has been extraordinarily journey for me as my MA provided wrong business name in the nomination application. The supporting docs we submitted are:

1 Explanation letter for providing wrong information.

2. Supporting letter from accountant

3. New organisations chart showing where the nominating business lies within the organisation

4. New BAS

And many more .

Will message you list latter.

 

Thank you Dan, hope you hear positive news soon.

 

This is the best thing happened to my life in 7 year after being in Aus.

Congratulations! What did you end up submitting again for your nomination documents with regards to the change of circumstances?

My employer has submitted everything now. Letter explaining, new BAS, a copy of some of my payslips and a copy of another employees payslips and even a letter from the local MP stating that the business is successful, locally owned and well known around town etc.

Congrats again!

How did immi know about the changes in ABN. Did they ask for new BAS?

My boss submitted a change of circumstances notice as that's what we were advised to do. If we hadn't told them and they asked for further documents like a new BAS or more of my wage slips etc they would of found out anyway and then would be questioning why we didn't tell them about it

so sorry to hear that did you mentioned everything in any submission report that why abn has been changed...they should have gave chance to explain the situation...

Immi hasn't refused the nomination just yet, they have asked us about the new partnership and ABN number but I'm not sure for definite what they have actually asked for. My MA has all that info though and just sent me an email now saying that she's done research but can't find any positive cases like mine and it's likely to be refused.

Hi everyone.

I am pretty sure I've mentioned this already but I'm just desperate for some positive comments on people who may have been in a similar situation.

I applied for 187 DE, since I applied the abn number changed as my boss sold 40% of the business which created a new ABN number however the business structure is exactly the same literally all that has changed is the ABN number and the name on the ABN number the workplace is still the same name and same staff members (it was two staff members that bought into the business)

On the 11th November we had contact from immi about this and now I've just received and email from my MA basically saying that it's likely to be refused. I'm desperate to stay obviously and I can't submit a new application as I'm already on a BVA

I'm located in WA but my case is with team 4 Vic,

Case officer made contact on the 11/11 asking for clarification on nomination details as the business has had to change ABN since we applied.

Has anybody got latest auto email regarding on which month they are processing ?

 

 

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

On the 9th of November the auto email said applications lodged early feb but it's not very accurate as I applied late April and had contact from CO last week.

Hey Danielle,

Have they asked for more documents? Is there anything your employer can send showing why the ABN has changed such as name of partners, financial documents, business structure change declaration, etc...

 

I guess they had to ask the question but don't give up, stay positive :-)

 

 

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They haven't actually said what documents we need to send them more so asking why the ABN number has changed. Well I think anyway. I have a print out of what they sent my employer but I'm still shocked that they've picked me case up and just confused with it all. Information overload!
