    If you are not out of the country for a long time, then I see no reason why this would affect your case. Typically, once the CO opens / views your case, they will either grant it without requesting anything (ideally), or send you a message requesting additional documentation. If they do request documentation though, you would only have 28 days to get it to them.

    Providing documentation before the CO attends to the case has no impact on processing time. The only time this would affect the processing time, is if the documents are not provided and the CO requests them (they they would need to wait for you to upload the requested files). - FYI, in this case - they allocate 28 days for you to upload any requested filed, meaning there is at best, another month before the CO gets back to your case.

    If your application has been lodged, then that'll mean that you would have received a bridging visa(s), which would contain a TRN reference number. Login to your Immi account, click on the "import" button and follow the steps (you should just need to enter your reference number) - that'll then import your application where you should be able to view and monitor your visa process.

    @lastdrop yep - mine were placed under the "Other documents" folder:

    As far as i'm aware the new PROPOSED law to cut the migrant numbers is just that - still a proposal. I haven't seen any literature that shows otherwise. Please let us know if you / your agent has information to shows otherwise - I know the number was going to be 30 000 (less).

    You need to update you address - immigration have that as a requirement. Any address and circumstance (in this case) changes need to be made aware to immigration.

    I would include all details up to date of submission. If you then travel and come back and they had still not reviewed it, then simply update the document and re-upload.

    As far as I know / have heard; they are having massive staffing issues (churn). Which doesn't help anything.

    I was told that it was unlikely that I would be required to complete it, however, completing it would avoid any time delays with my case. At the end of it, the case officer did actually look into it, and I was lucky I had already provided it, else it would have been another wait. My suggestion on this, is to complete it. - It shouldn't take more than 1 / 2 days to complete and the amount of time it COULD save you, would make up for it. For me, it was all about being proactive.

    I'd say they are mostly in (roughly) February / March 2018 at the moment.

    Would you mind please letting us know where you get those timelines from? Based off the home affairs immigration website: https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-processing-times/global-visa-processing-times it's still the same and has not been updated since 17th October.

    @ICT Customer Support Officer It's very unlikely you'll be able to get access to the nomination application. You can try and import the nomination with the TRN number, however, i'm not sure it will allow you access to same. This is because, the nomination is for the company (typically applied for through the MA Immi account), which includes all the company finances etc. If you have gone through an MA, I can almost guarantee that they won't allow you access to same (not without explicit permission from the company - even then it's not for sure). My suggestion would be to hold on tight, wait for the nomination to be approved (the MA should tell you) and then monitor your application closely.

    Hi @GTRZ If I understand your concerns correct, then yes, both those items will affect you. Q1. If your employee is no longer registered for sponsorships, they will not be able to lodge an application for sponsorship. There is a reason you need to stay registered. Q2. Every sponsorship should fall under the same requirements, meaning if a training requirement is needed for any 186 TRT - then it's the same across the scope. I suggest you confirm all this with a MA soon, as I feel this will directly affect you (unless i've misunderstood something).

    Why risk it, if not absolutely necessary? I was in a similar situation and had to accept to basically put everything on hold whilst getting the visa grant. At the end of the day, it's your choice / risk really, might also be worth while bouncing it off an agent as well though.

    These have not changed since the 10th October, please see this site for details: https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-processing-times/global-visa-processing-times

    @Harrie Gill Unfortunately, what your MA said is true - if the ABN number changes, the nomination / visa application becomes invalid and needs to be reapplied for. I, personally don't know of any work around / "loophole" to this, and personally don't think there is one. As much of a pain as it is, I would go with what the MA said and withdraw to re-apply. Sorry if it wasn't the news you wanted to hear!
  17. Hex
    FYI - it's not a case of "may reject" your application. As far as I know, if you leave your job while the application is still pending, they WILL reject your application if it is not withdrawn. That and the nomination (obviously).
  18. Hex
    @Hydra Correct; the nomination and visa application would be applied through from your company. If you quit / leave, then the nomination and visa request would need to be withdrawn and a new application process started. Once you get PR, it is documented that both you and your employee agree to keep you working at the same place for at least 2 years from grant, however, this is not a law as situations arise outside of our control. My suggestion is to stick it out, get the grant and then re-evaluate.

    @galisuman Stay strong, you never know, could be sooner than that! Holding thumbs!

    Hey @ajk, sorry - I don't have access to the spreadsheet (and I'd like to keep it that way)

    If things go well, and this is based off only my opinion. I'd say within the next 1-2 months

    @BenoitThanks mate, much appreciated! - My wife had only added up to the last 8 years, they are very strict on this and needed the full 10 years of past residence (including any police clearance for any country you've lived for more than 12 months). We had to complete tons of information at the bottom of the form (they provide additional space for extra details). we just labeled it as "section x - continued". - I would recommend to everyone / anyone to do a form 80. It's a pain but is so easy for the CO to ask for it, which will only delay things longer. Also, you should already have everything needed to compete it. So there is no real reason not to. Remember updating your application does not slow it down at all, unless its a request from the CO.

    I just received my visa grant. I don't need to tell you guys that words cannot even explain this feeling... Please update my case on the spreadsheet; Below is my full timeline. 09/01/2018: Nomination and visa application 30/08/2018: s56 requested more documentation (form 80 and character update for my wife - she didn't add the full 10 years of passed living address) -- Submitted back within 3 days. 08/10/2018: Nomination approved 09/10/2018: s56 requested additional documentation. Now that my son was passed 2 years old, they needed a TB scan (both children had a medical already), once passed age of 2, they have to provide a TB scan as well (for certain countries). -- Submitted back within 8 days. 12/11/2018: Visa grant received. This forum has helped me tons and don't worry - I'm not going anywhere. -- Knowing how hard and stressful this process is, I've decided to stay dedicated to try and help anyone, with anything I can with regards to this process.

    @Deep1991 No, nothing as yet - the last request for documentation was sent (and provided) on the 12th October. They say that the documentation needs to be provided within 28 days of request (which is now past). I'm holding thumbs (and anything else), hoping that someone picks the file up and ticks the box.

    @tocsa As far as i'm aware, the training benchmark is for the company nomination (which affects your visa obviously). The fact that the company has an applicant on or off shore, should make no difference. The requirement is to confirm that the company (not the applicant) is up to standard on training. Hope that helps?
