Congrats Jamie! Time to celebrate!
When did you complete your medicals? I did mine on 11/04 and my MA told me they had been finalised on my online-application on Tuesday.

Hi guys,
I've been following this forum throughout my whole visa process. Now that I have completed my meds and all has been submitted, I would be interested to see who else has/is submitting their application this month.
I am a 29/single man, so hopefully that will work in my favour with regards to processing time!

Received my skills assessment yesterday...IT WAS POSITIVE! I was so so happy! I will be asking my migration agent to submit the EOI ASAP!
-
Thanks mate - at least I will know either way within the next two weeks. I will of course update you ASAP! As you say, we have met all the criteria!
-
My migration agent contacted me today to say AITSL have been in contact and my assessment has been completed! That means it took 6 weeks and 2 days from acknowledgement of recieving documents. I now have to wait two weeks for it to arrive by post! So so anxious!
-
We just need to put it to the back of our minds! It does seem that they do require a seperate confirmation of supervised teaching confirmation. So they might request this, even though it does say on your transcript.
I would certainly chase this up from your uni, just so you are 1 step ahead.
-
I think you are right - I have also read over the requirements countless times and everything matches - The wait is just killing me!
Yeah, I think the 189 is our only option really. I don't even want to think about if it is negative...
-
I still have my reservations despite this; however, I am a pessimist!
I am not sure what our options would be if it doesn't come back positive! Any ideas?

Hi - I have been private messaging another member who had a ProfGCE through a SCITT and was successful! They said as long has you have provided all of the correct paperwork regarding transcripts etc, then all should be fine! Fingers crossed!
-
Absolutely! I have trolled many forums; however, I have found nothing. I have however found a couple of posts saying that they were refused due to it being a ProfGCE but this was back in 2012. All I know is that I have met all the requirements the AITSL ask for (45+ days of supervised teaching confirmation on uni letter head paper, PGCE and transcript from UK university).
-
As long as you have submitted exactly what the AITSL have requested. My accrediting uni were fantasic - they provided me with a very detailed confirmation of supervised teaching. Having spent two years on a WHV in Australia from 2009-2011, I fell in love with the country. I actually returned to the UK, done a history degree and PGCE in order to simply return to Australia permantly.
It wasn't until I started the visa process that I found out that my PGCE was a ProfGCE - I was livid with my SCITT provider, as they had never mentioned this to me. Anyhow, it does seem that the Level 6 ProfGCE equates to a Level 7 on the Aussie academic framework.
Good luck! I will let you know as and when - I honestly don't know what I will do if its rejected. I really would love to find out if anyone else with the ProfGCE, attained via SCITT but accredited by a university has been successful.

Hi,
I am a secondary school history teacher who also has a ProfGCE. My skills assessment was submitted 5 weeks ago, so half way through a very anxious wait! Your concern was one of my biggest concerns, hence why I have gone through a MIRA approved migration agent. They have told me that the ProfGCE UK Level 6 is the equivalent of a Level 7 on the Aussie academic framework. I have 98 days supervised teaching.
I would be very interested to see if anyone else recieved a positive assessment with a ProfGCE.
Did you do your ProfGCE through SCITT or directly through a university? Mine was through a SCITT; however, my qualification was accredited by the University of Brighton.
Hope this helps!
189 Processing ... the wait begins!

I find it very difficult not to be anxious as so much in hanging on this decision!
Im looking at Perth Suburbs, possibly Mandurah - will be hopefully heading out as soon as school has finished (im a teacher), so late July. My only commitment here is my job, so i'm looking to go ASAP.
