  1. Thank you guys for the great advice ! I appreciate it.
  2. Dear administrators and all, I am new to this forum, and I have a few questions with regard to the settlement in SA. I am recently granted a 187 visa, and my family and I are planning to move to Adelaide in 2 months. I would like to get some information about primary schools. Our plan is to rent a house for the first couple of months during our stay. So how can I apply for public primary school for my 8-year-old daughter? Do I choose school based on the location that I stay? Do I need to provide the lease or some kind of documentation to apply for a primary school ? I just want to understand how the process for applying my kids for school work out in Australia. I appreciate your advice. Thank you Joe
  3. Click on "removed occupations" from the link and you will see the below OFFICIAL note: "If your occupation has been removed from the list, you will be impacted if: you apply for one of the following visa programmes on or after 19 April 2017: Employer Nominated Scheme (subclass 186) – Direct Entry Stream Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) Skilled Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 489) Temporary Work (Skilled) visa (Subclass 457) Training visa (subclass 407) That is, any applications already lodged before 19 April 2017 for the above visa subclasses (other than a 457 visa) will not be impacted (even if the occupation was removed on 19 April 2017)." My occupation is on the removed list, I am not sure how "offical" the information is though. Is there anyone on the forum whose occupation is on the removed gets his/her PR granted recently ?
  4. Congrates to all the PR approvals over the weekend ! This definitely gives some hopes to those who are still waiting.
  5. My occupation is on the "removed" list, and this change will not affect any 186 DE application that was lodged before April 19. BUT, my concern is since my occupation will no longer be supportive for future 186 DE application, would that affect the way that CO makes a decision ?
  6. I respect the fact that they are slowing down the process due to public holidays or the lack of resources. But I don't like the way how they process applications. They should have done it based on first come first serve principle
  7. The processing time for DE 186 has been updated from 75% 9 months, 90% 11 months, to 75% 10 months, 90% 12 months...sad !
  8. Lucky you man ! CONGRATES. I am also a DE applicant, waiting for my nomination.
  9. Sue, does your IMMI account reflect the stauts to say "Assessment in progress" ? BTW, did they by any chance tell you whether Ocotober DE files are allocated ?
  10. Hi Sue, My timeline is on the spreadsheet: Nomination/Visa: 24/10.2017 HR country, 3 persons. DE application. Other than the nomination approval, I actually have other factors that I am worried about. I had a surgury last year to remove a precancerous lesion in lung, and I have completed my health check but until a CO is allocated, they cannot tell me whether I meet the health criteria..... so, I am pretty stressed out ! Hope everything goes well , and I wish that everyone on the forum gets his/her PR soon !!!
  11. I just noticed that too, a OCT DE file has been finalized. Actually, I called IMMI last week and they said that they just started opening DE files. Hope it is my turn soon....
  12. BTW, my lawyer just reassigned from her previous company and the email address she used to apply my nomination is now redirected to another person. Will that cause a problem. ? My lawyer said that she would still follow up on my case, but if her previous email is no longer in use, how could she response to IMMI if contacted ???
  13. I believe that they started to look into October transition files, DEs are usually 2-3 months behind. Fingers crossed.
  14. It is defintely a paintful process, and I myself can feel this already, though my waiting time is only 5+ months which is not worth mentiong in comparision to those JAN-APRIL folks.
  15. CONGRATS to Jose ! It seems that a lot of April & May DE applications are still pending, or are they just not updating the status on spreadsheet ?
  16. Congrats to KathLe ! According to the spreadsheet, it does seem that the transition stream is allocated in prior to DE, possibly because IMMI has a record of 457 application which makes it easy for them process ???
  17. LR countries are those countries from which you can apply an ETA. ETA eligable countries (LR) are listed here : https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Visa-1/601- (with a dash in the end).
  18. I hope that you will have some great news soon. I lodged nomination on Oct 24 via Direct Entry (HR country), ICT occupation, not sure how long I will be waiting for...
