Hi all,

Finally I just got invitation letter to the ceremony. Below is my final timeline:

date of application: 24/02/2019

date of test email: 12/11/2019

initial test date: 16/12/2019

rescheduled test date:13/11/2019

date of approval: 13/11/2019 

Date of ceremony: 24/03/2020

My local council is Cumberland (NSW), but in the letter, it says due to high demand for ceremony in my local council, I was put in another council (Blacktown-NSW).

Good luck to everyone

they refuse my nomination just because it was notpaid on due date.

I think it may depend on the CO. My employer paid the benchmark 10 months late but we just mentioned in a document that payment covered which year

Your MA is right if you were granted a DE 186 visa. Opposite to the 457 transition to PR you have to work at least 2 years with your sponsoring employer AFTER your PR was granted on a DE. However, my MA also told me that DIBP has no resources allocated to follow up  and cancel PR visa if you decide to leave your employer as it is common practice but it's legally not correct and yes it might affect your citizenship application. 

My PR is transition stream. Yes I heard people say they wont cancel your PR but when it comes to citizenship I am not sure it will be that easy

Kindly share your timeline .. your occupation , which date u applied your visa and nomination and under which stream?? 

Yes we should work for 2 years .. if your employer notifies immi that u are not working ,, can cause u trouble .. I would say listen to your migration agent as they are experts 

Transition Stream, 2pp

Hi everyone, I have been silently followed this forum and find it very helpful. So I hope someone here can help me with this question.

 i have just been granted PR 186 ENS but my MA insists that I need to work for my employer another 2 years because it will cause me trouble when applying for citizenship. they will check employment history and may not grant citizenship if I dont work for my employer 2 years post PR. Have anyone here got any idea about this? 

thank you
