Might be worth complaining to your local federal member of parliament. 
Dont know if it will make any difference but if many people start making noise about how we are be rorted by the immi Dept then maybe something will happen. 

Jeez.... 
This means there will be no documents required and just refuse the application. 
Better contact my agent now to make sure everything is uploaded. 
Getting really hard...

'The least important'... and yet my boss (and I being the manager of the shop) always struggle in finding proper and reliable staff particularly being in a regional area. Yes, many Australians apply for jobs, they say and promise to be the best workers and then they call in sick after the second week they start, they slack at their job thinking "oh someone else will do it" and they have no commitment in what they do particularly in the hospitality and retail industries. Australians in these industries are the worst, only very few are good but they are difficult to find or they are already employed somewhere else.

Immigration should give accurate information on what they r upto making these many people wait and delaying their files is not good..it shows their inefficiency

Any one from April and May? By looking at the recent PR granted. They seems from June to October. Why IMMI just skip from March to May?

Hi, I've been following this thread for the past few months but not posted before. Got some news about my application a few days ago but it's not exactly encouraging:
Occupation: Hotel / Motel Manager
Applied nomination and visa together 7th April 2016
LR country, direct entry
Immigration contacted 25/4/17 and have asked for a lot more information about the business I work for such as BAS statements, all of my payslips, resignation letter from the person who's job I took over, new employment contract, new job description, market salary research as there's no equivalent employee.
I thought it all sounds pretty standard but my agent said he has "concerns" because in 97% of his cases immigration have assessed the employer and applicant together but in this case they haven't even opened my visa application yet. Apparently he feels they're subjecting the business to a higher level of scrutiny than normal.
Just wondered if anyone else has had a similar experience?

Why did you said that. I think if you have a genuine position and a good company to sponsor you, you have nothing to worry much about even they get stricter, it will just depends on case officer decision then, but if it looks dodgy it will just buy you time then. 

Hi Guys I m just giving up hope..it seems like they will take another 2-3 months and they will give negative result bcoz they will start looking at the cases according to todays fact of strictness of immi..I think I will end up getting nothing..this wait will not worth..feeling very frustrusted nd sad

I just got my pr last week! Its been a very long process. It took me 1 year and 1 month. Good luck to everyone. I m not sure if the new changes affect 186/187 or only 457. 
Timeline. 10/3/2016 nomination and visa
24/1/2017 open file. New passports requested, svac and a document for nomination  ( don't know what).
3/2017  nomination approved
10/4/2017 visa approved
Massage therapist.
 
At the end I had to follow up with immi if they received the new passports as MA hadn't uploaded my husbands. So I called them a few times Thursday and Friday to check and Monday I called them again to say that they had everything and they granted pr.
