Thanks for the kind words. Just wish I knew what was the correct decision but hey that's life. My wife will be more comfortable back at home so I just need to support her. Hopefully I find a job when I arrive - that's my major worry.
-
Thanks mate that's great advice. Will take copy's of resignation letters, closed Oz accounts & our one way flight

https://www.nhsinform.scot/media/1139/health-care-for-uk-passport-holders-returning-from-abroad-v6-2016-186.pdf Just found the following Fact Sheet for NHS Scotland. Looks like we should be ok as long as we can provide documents that confirm we intent to remain in the UK as residents.

Thank you. Funnily enough I just registered on the electoral role last week. My wife is still on it from her Mothers address. I guess you are correct, an immediate rental would show Permanent Residency without a doubt.I will look into that. I will bring all confirmation of closed Oz bank accounts/ Credit Cards / end of rentals from here to strengthen the case that we have left for good.

Hi All, Posted this in another thread but thought I would start my own Post on it. Myself & Wife have been living in Perth for 4 years and are both PR. Both originally UK Citizens. My wife recently became pregnant and we are both very excited about our 1st. The problem being is that my wife just cant comprehend having the baby here. She is very close to our family and just wants to deliver and bring up the bub around her family. Which I understand. Myself on the other hand would like to stay here however we have came to the decision to move back. I want to do whats right for her. So we are planning the move back and have a few additional questions in regards to the move: NHS Treatment - as we plan to move back to the UK on a permanent basis she should be entitled to NHS treatment immediately - is that correct? I've read that its down to residency. We will be living with her mother initially until I start work and we can either rent / buy. We will have had the first scan here - I take it I can just bring all the scan details home for her GP? As far as I understand she is still registered with her UK GP so plan is to make appointment as soon as she returns. Has anyone had any experience of this? Or any additional things we need to consider? Thanks again,

I'm in the same situation to yourself in terms of the waiting period. PR granted in Match 19 and been here for 4 years. I trawled through the guides and couldn't find any such clause. http://guides.dss.gov.au/guide-social-security-law/3/1/2/40 Let me know if you have any luck...

Interested on your thoughts on my situation - with regards to this. Myself and my wife have been living in Oz for 4 years. She recently became pregnant and we both have decided to move back to the UK to have the baby and settle. She is very close to her family and we have decided we want to return to the UK permanently. Its been a tough decision but we dont want to bring up our baby without our family around. There would be no plan to move back to OZ when the baby is born. When we move back, we will be living with her parents until I can find myself a job. At that point we will look to Rent for a short time or buy a house. My thoughts on this is that as we are moving back to the UK to be residents then we would be entitled to full NHS care. Is this the correct assumption to make?

If you are going to complain, then yes, I would include your details. Otherwise they wont know who you are. Hopefully you get some good news from this.

Not sure if you'll have much luck. I know its tough that you've been waiting for so long however no where does the department state that all applications will be completed within "X" amount of time. If they did, you would definitely have grounds for a complaint.
-
Good luck with your complaint. Out of interest, on what grounds are you complaining on? Is it just to do with how long you have been waiting?

I assume in his IMMI account. Website will be updated soon.

Hi, can you share your full timeline - its good info for others. Make an appointment with Medicare - you are eligible.
-
Keep us updated, hopefully your agent will get a reply Should your salary be included in the training benchmark however? As you are not a Citizen I didn't think it could be counted? I could be wrong, not got much knowledge on the benchmark requirements.

I understand your point of view - I do. However my MA done nothing that another MA couldn't do. Contact the department. Also, I don't think me advising who my MA agent was would help anyone, or specifically the situation above. It would only delay the process even further. For example: Nomination is refused by IMMI and details of the refusal are sent to "Agent A". Then an unknown "Agent B" sends request to IMMI to vacate a nomination that they had nothing to do with or even involved in. I can see the above situation only making the situation worse. I'm happy to help anyone out on the forum as know how challenging a processes this can be I just don't think me sharing my MA would help anyone. Hope you understand The best thing the above poster can do is contact their own MA, and ask them to contact the department to request the decision be vacated - on the grounds that an error has been made. Hopefully they will get lucky and if not - get ready to lodge an appeal.
-
Personally - I don't think you have the time to start changing agents. The decision to vacate the decision would need to be done before the AAT appeal deadline. From memory I think its 21 days after nomination refusal. So in effect you only have 21 days to decide how your going to progress.

My nomination was refused due to error. My application was slightly more complicated then most and I can see how they came to that decision however there was specific policy in place which they didn't know about or missed. My agent, was able to send off a request to vacate the decision (I assume by email) and luckily, it caught the interest of someone and the decision was over turned and my visa granted. I must stress however that my agent did confirm to me that there was no legislation or process in place for situations like this. They could have easily just ignored the request. Sorry, I'm not going to share my agents name or contact details. Why? As I don't want them inundated with emails/calls when someone has a nomination refused. I just don't think that would be fair. Again, it would be up to the agent who submitted your application to look for solutions and provide a path forward for yourself. Good luck and I hope your situation is resolved quickly. If you have any other questions I will try to help as best I can....

I know it can be tough mate, I waited 1 year before mine was granted and I thought that was long enough...so I can imagine what your going through. All you can do is wait it out and hope for the best. Good Luck.

You and your friends may share the same Occupation but your applications wont be the same. IMMI department uses multiple criteria to assess each application on its own merit. It would be correct to call it unfair, if all the specifics of your application matched your friends but again that would be highly unlikely.

Unfortunately Cooks are seen as a "High Risk" occupation and can see increased processing times compared to other applications.

Find out what Bridging Visa he is on and if it allows travel.

Estimated Global Visa Processing Times should be updated this week. Hopefully we see another reduction. https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-processing-times/global-visa-processing-times

I suppose my post above just illustrates that receiving a nomination refusal does not mean your only option is the AAT. However, I do believe it is rare to get an overturn like I did. God must have been looking down on me....

Some more details on my case. My Nomination was refused 2 weeks ago. I spoke to my MA who immediately informed we need to act quickly and have two possible options. 1. MA would contact the department to ask them to vacate the decision to refuse my nomination - on the basis that the correct legislation wasn't followed. No guarantee this would be successful. 2. If above wasn't successful we would need to appeal to the AAT within 21 days. MA advised I had a strong case for this, unfortunately it would just be a long wait. Luckily my MA was able to get the department to review the decision and this week I received nomination approval and visa grant together. Now I'm still in shock - as I didn't actually believe that option 1 would be possible. I'm so grateful to my MA and would encourage everyone to use a reputable agent where possible. If I had applied myself I don't believe I would have had the same positive outcome. My MA is a large worldwide company - so that must have helped. I'm not going to go into the reason why my nomination was refused in the first place as that's my personal choice. I hope you all understand that. Looks like you all haven't got rid of me after all
