    It is so delightful to see so many grants! Go, CO, Go!

    Actually, your message reminded me that I have to get a haircut.

    I believe you got your gold medal in this competition The next award is a golden email.

    Oh my god, I did not realise how many people are still waiting from 2016-2017. You all guys must be very strong to wait for such long time. I wish you all guys to get your visas by the end of this year.

    You are the next one! And let the power of the uni be with you.

    Those Temple Bar parties...

    The waiting process is killing me.

    According to my knowledge, interim Medicare is an adequate health insurance, and you can stop your private insurance while still being on 457 visa, once you got Medicare. (I did this by myself.) And I confirmed this information in the medicare office. Also from my experience, immigration department gives sometimes different answers to the same questions, when you call them. So I would not trust to what they say.

    Where did you see a word "private" in that requirement? It says "adequate", not private.
  10. Loktar
    As far as I remember somewhere reading the law it was also mentioned "at the same location". But I do not remember exactly, whether it applies to the time period you had to work to apply for TRT, or for the whole process.

    Congratulations! Another grant for a March applicant!

    Just 18 months mate? Then you are still within the timeline, which is 19 months now. By the time you reach 19 months, they will increase the timeline again, lol.
  13. Loktar
    In my opinion, you can safely wait for about five-six months, and then do your health assessment. I doubt any case officer will be assigned earlier than in six months period.

    Two years of what? As there is not employer associated with the visa.
  15. Loktar
    On the home affairs website, the processing time for the 189 is 8-11 months.
  16. Loktar
    They also earn more money by doing so. A company has to pay for the nomination.
  17. Loktar
    Because 457 and 186 are two very different visas.
  18. Loktar
    It looks fine to me, but perhaps it is better to seek a professional advice from a MA.
  19. Loktar
    Make sure it is in effect (i.e., your 457 has been expired).

    Guys, I forgot to add my internship in the employment history in the application form. I just did not consider it as employment. Though, technically I was paid, so some may consider it as employment. Do you think it is a concern and I should submit a correction form, or is it fine to leave it as is?
  21. Loktar
    These numbers do not look too bad. While in fact the waiting time for 186 has been almost tripled since last year; a number of highly educated people now prefer to immigrate to Canada instead of Australia. In Canada, as I remember the full PR process takes about three months at most (they do specify the upper limit), and it is several times cheaper as well. This I believe will affect the economics of this country and it is sad that it is happening.

    I think, if all visa applicants passed the medicals and police clearance, this should not happen (in most of the times).
  23. Loktar
    457 visa has been abolished. A replacement TSS (482) visa can be issued within two months, it is a much quicker than its predecessor.
  24. Loktar
    Have you tried 13 18 81 ? As I understood some ppl from this forum called to the department after March 2018, and were able to speak with someone on the line.
  25. Loktar
    Have you tried calling them by phone?
