Hi guys, hope you guys achieve the outcomes very soon. Just quick question, i have recently got approved 187 RSMS visa, and my boss wants to give me an opportunity for a job promotion. Its under same job classification as Chef, but promotion to a higher rank (Sous chef). Then my HR team declined to give me this offer because they saying that i have to work for 2 years under nominated position, (Chef). I am confused because i m not changing to totally different occupation, just trying to get promotion under same business within same job classification. Please advise me guys, even after the visa granted still we don't get to have a chance to get promoted?? What you guys think?? thanks

Does anyone knows the Australian immigration email address to send an enquiries through? Can t find anywhere in the website..

Finally I have received a golden email! Further documents submitted on 26/11/2018 then status changed to "Further assessment" Visa granted date : 15/01/2019 Hope everyone gets good news very soon!

the asnwer is No. CO who approved your Nomination, CO who opens your application and asked you to submit more documents(if any) after you submit more documents, the CO who opens again and asess your application further, All three of them are different Case Officers. I don t understand why they work like that, but thats what it is...

Thanks for the info I just wanted to know how long does it take approximately from initial assessment to further assessment ? if your allocated CO opens your application and decide to ask you for more documents, they change your status to "initial assessment" while they waiting for you to submit those extra documents, (mostly health exam, and police checks). When you upload those documents, then status changes to "further assessment" which means the application now ready to be looked at again. i see people approved within a month after submit their extra documents, (further assessment to finalized) but you know there is no answer for the processing time..

if your case officer starting to look at your application, the status should be changed from "received" to "initial assessment" OR "further assessment". I guess your application has not allocated to the case officer yet? but also that doesnt make sense because your allocated case officer approve your nomination...

does your status says "further assessment"?

Hi guys, just quick updates on my application FYI Area: ACT Occupation: Chef Nomination and Visa application submitted on 05/09/2017 RCB approved on 02/01/2018 Asked for further documents (Police checks and Health) on 20/11/2018 seems like they opened my file today as they requested for more documents. Hopefully my timeline helps to all chefs or who have lodged in ACT. I ll update as soon as thing comes up!

Hopeless question however Do you guys think the processing times will go up again?

One question, The processing time varies depends on what 'occupation' you are applied with.? Seems like a lot of cook is waiting since early 2016.
