Visa Nomination Refusal. Withdraw - then what? Restaurant manager, NSW. 187/RSMS, 17th May 2016 - RCB Approved, 14th July 16 - Submission documents for Visa 10/2018 - Agent requested police checks to update file - (Not Immi.) 1 st Feb 2019 - Visa Rejected. Reason: The employer had stopped operating under original ABN (Mentioned during time of application) Although business was still running - had changed the ABN in Jan 2016. Immi had contacted employer requesting ( Jan 18) request documents/reason for changing ABN # Employer had not submitted docs within allocated time frame (14 days.), Visa rejected 1st Feb, Agent notified me 5th Feb. giving me (apparently) 28 days to appeal - as I was told. I was told I had 28 days to appeal / withdraw. To see I only had 21 days to appeal and 28 to withdraw. My agent got back to me on the 5th / Feb (5 days in) Since I missed the appeal - now I need to withdraw or get rejected. Cost of appeal 17xx odd dollars so around 1800/- ++ \ this is addition to previous "paperwork charges" for previous app from agent. 2 years 7 months .... and again I am waiting. What happens after I withdraw? can I re-apply?

They have given time to appeal until the 20th/02

Pending They require the employer to be present during appeal . Looking at the next step more furious that the agent who was handling this did not check any documents - prior

Lets all wait it out ..

Yep. Frustration levels have exceeded and no more levels .. was promised 6 - 8 months, then 12 and on and on and on and .. . .. .

June 2016 ? - we should just hang-out ...

look at the way the approvals are going, Nov 16, Sept 16, Aug 16 etc. this was just an assumption.

Congrats. I applied around the time frame, restaurant m. though. Fingers XX

they are definitely working backwards, by month dec - jan 2016, then prob Dec - jan 17, then work forward from ?, assuming change of rules brought in lesser applications ?

Have you received it yet?

Honestly, not been a party pooper..You just need to leave this at the back of your mind for now and move on with other stuff. With experience the wait is 24 months+, unless things change from immigration. We tend to hold back on a lot of stuff one by one, hoping for that one day... then realise it was a waste of time. While at it, one misses out on a lot of valuable time....and things to do. U will get it at some point. Just dont make the wait a priority.

True. So many changes in life and situations. This does not give one time to actually decide if to settle down, or just keep waiting. Sooo much money invested ? - so unsettled, life has become. There are usually many decisions that a human can make across 24 months, but each time, focus goes back to the If and IF NOT of a visa.

IF file is open, then a matter of days, assuming all documents are up to date. Medical valid for 12 months, IELTS - 12/24, not quite sure, employer contract etc, If the documents needed to be updated, due to delay/time, that will depend on how soon you submit the documents.

June 2016 cook offshore still no news yep July 2016, Rtail - NSW Sigh ....
