Do you know if the companies nomination had been accepted before you applied for your visa?

 

As I understand it there are two parts to a 457 - the first part the employer applies for & this is where they have to prove they can support the sponsored person, cannot find suitable local people etc.

 

Once that is approved (& I have no idea how long that takes) then the employee applies for their visa and ours took under a month.

 

I am just wondering if your employer hasn't sponsored anyone before whether their part is all in place?

My agent told me that they haven't received any news after the SBS approved. So I don't know what's happen.

If a Police Check has been requested by the Immigration Department for a subclass 457 visa, it means that you have a criminal history which can delay the processing of the application. Have you researched whether you meet the "character requirements" for this visa?

I got drive drunk, and suspended my driving license for one year in SA.
