    Hi, we applied for VISA 190 and it was an offshore application. Just to check with you guys, are we allowed to apply for medicare.

     

    Thank you

    Alan

    Check out this link (scroll down to "If you’ve applied for permanent residency"): https://www.servicesaustralia.gov.au/individuals/subjects/how-enrol-and-get-started-medicare/enrolling-medicare/how-enrol-medicare-if-youre-australian-permanent-resident

    I think you're eligible. I enrolled with Medicare while my PR was processing, but my application was onshore.

    If you want to be sure, just visit a Medicare service centre and they'll be able to guide you.

    Hi,

    I have applied for visa 190 on 1st Feb 2020, in the General Accountant category & it was an offshore application. At the time of applying I already had 1 year of experience as an accountant in Australia. In the state sponsorship invite, they have mentioned that I need to stay and work in NSW for two years. Since I already have one year experience does anyone know whether this 2 years will count that one year's experience.

    Or is it 2 years live and work in NSW from the day they grant us PR. 

    Many people say that it takes about 8 months for them to grant PR for Accountants for visa 190. Is it true? And have ayone heard any PR visa 190 rejections for accountants. 

    Thank you

    Alan

    Hi all,

     

    Does anyone know if NSW still require the 1 year teaching in state experience? 

     

    I cannot find any information on this. 

     

    Thanks all! 

    Yes they do, see below screenshot from here.

    190 I have applied for, again heard nothing back, i have 90 points on this and am led to believe that the Auditor points ceiling is 95, so unless anything changes im not holding out much hope.

    491, i'm currently in the country on a TSS working for a firm in Sydney, so not sure this would work for me.

    I think my only real option will be to transfer onto the 186 in a few years time.

    Oh I see - I didn't realise you were in the country already. Yeah, a mate of mine has just gone this route (from 457 to 186) as an Auditor. It was his only real option.

    Unfortunately that was my thinking too. I was holding out hope that they have finally decided to look into my EOI and i'd hear something soon, ahh well!

    As an aside, have you explored other visa options such as 190 or 491? (as you mentioned, a 189 invite is not likely with 85 points)

  6. Very interesting - never seen that before, but it looks to me like an automated email being sent to ensure correct points are claimed at EOI stage, rather than getting to application stage and finding the issue then.

    Yes I read about the bridging B visas too, do you know if they are easy to get or do you have to meet certain requirements? e.g. compassionate circumstances, like a funeral or wedding?

    Bridging visa B is easy and quick to get. I got one in November. I just said I was visiting family back home. Didn't have to provide any evidence. It was granted within a day or 2.

    Hi guys. I’m on the 482 visa and found a new sponsor who has already submitted an application for nomination transfer. My question is, will the Department of Home Affairs contact me regarding this application?

    I did a transfer in February last year and did not receive any contact from the DHA.
