    @Tini365 This is a very sensitive area of the visa approval and can prove a disaster if not handled correctly. You literally can have your PR taken away from you.
    - I've seen it before, and it's not hard (for your employer) to do. 

    My suggestion is to make sure that your current employer is OK with this (I, personally would ask them to sign something) - that way, they can not go to immi and complain.
    - Any complaint from them, will introduce an investigation and likely have a bad outcome. 

    If, however, they are happy with it all and it's a mutual decision from you and the company that nominated you - then you'll be fine.
    - No need to inform Immi about same. 

    At the end of the day, there is no law that stops you from doing this, however, if the company that nominated and sponsored you complains, or makes it known to Immi, then that's where the trouble can start. It's very possible that Immi can determine that you never had any intention on staying with the company, which is a requirement of the visa approval and allows them to overturn the approval / granting. 

    Thanks Hex, Really good info. 

    Luckily we have parted ways in a very nice way. No issues from my employer. After 5 years with the company, they felt it was fair enough. 

    I appreciate your feedback as always hex! Have a great weekend.

    After a long wait and a scare with my partner's criminal history, we have received our PR today!!!

    Absolutely buzzing to say the least! Going to have few beers tonight to celebrate and luckily enough, my Mum is over from the UK and staying with me at the moment. Great to be able to celebrate with family. 

    Thanks to this forum and for everyone help! Good luck to all and keep going. This was my second application and my second year of waiting! Keep believing! It will happen!!

    Another thing to note that should make you feel a bit more positive about the situation is that my housemate had the exact same problem. She had been arrested at the age of 14 for shop lifting so her police check also said 'No Live Trace'. She is now 30 years old, and a really great genuine, trustworthy and hard working person! Her MA prepared a Stat Dec and immigration approved her visa with no other questions asked. 

    Ahhhhhhh!!! You have made us feel heaps better!!! She filled in the same stat dec on the link you told us to fill out?

    You bloody legend!!!

    Would it not be worth getting a Stat Dec signed by a JP? A bit like the Form 80 I did this before immigration potentially asked for it. 

    Its another form of evidence to show you are of good character etc. 

    See link below to the form: 

    https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/form-listing/forms/character-statutory-declaration.pdf

    Hope this helps a bit! 

    Thanks Buddy!!

    I'll have a chat to my MA about it

    So sorry to hear this Tini365. We had a similar situation in September 2018 when we applied. My husbands also came back 'no live trace' for a caution drunk and disorderly also back in 2004. He was 18 at the time. Our MA advised we may be able to have it removed. In the meantime we submitted visa without the AFP. We spoke to police and ACRO in UK, managed to fill out a form to appeal the caution and it was overturned. (In the meantime we ordered a subject access which we were going to put in with our application if we were unable to get it appealed and provide an explanation ) We didn't have any evidence as to why we were removing it he just said young and a mistake and stressed what a massive impact it was having on our visa application.  It took about 3-4 weeks to come back but was worth it to have it now say no trace if possible. Even if it can't be removed don't stress if you can get a subject access explaining what happened and have a note from your MA it should be fine.

    I hope this helps best of luck.

    Thanks Katie, Good idea but we won't be able to get rid of the offensive weapon issue even though it was a stupid novelty lighter! 

    I'm sure it will be fine. Fingers crossed they don't make a mountain out of a molehill on this one! In the end, we just notified immigration she gave the wrong answer and apologised profusely.

    Hi Guys, 

    Our application has gone through to Further assessment. 

    Since my last post my partner and I have had a bit of a shock. On the 29th Jan we were asked to organise our AFP, UK Police Check and also our health check. We thought, great, we are getting super close. 

    We organised our AFP and got those back within a few days and managed to book our health checks in super quick. Both AFP and Health check came back positive and obviously no issues. We applied for our ACRO police checks and my partner had a bit of a shock when we got these back. She has "No Live Trace" on her police check. She remembered that she had 2 warnings for shoplifting in 2004 and referral order for carrying a novelty lighter with a serrated edge but didn't think these would appear because these took place when she was a minor. 

    In 2012 my partner got a police check done for her job as an airline hostess and this came back clean. This check we now realise was not as in depth as an ACRO police check. My partner had the understanding that because this police check was clean that no records as a minor would affect her adult life. She used this same police check for her 1st visa here in Australia in 2012 which was a partner visa with her ex and she also used it for her 457 visa after she split up with her ex back in 2013.

    As soon as we could we submitted a notification of incorrect answers along with a copy of the old police check that we luckily had on file. We then submitted the Acro police check.

    My partner is feeling incredibly sad as this innocent mistake could cause immigration to invoke PIC 4020 which could be devastating to our application. 

    I am still keeping positive as we are good people and we both have had a clean record in the UK and Australia since. There is nothing we can do to change this situation it is what it is. 

    All I ask is for everyone to throw positive vibes in the air for us both and hope that immigration will take this information lightly and approve our visa. 

    I'll keep you updated with our progress. 

    Good luck everyone!!!

    Good to hear IMMI has opened you file.

     

    I would suggest to submit  form 80, check the messages in this forum where lot of people advised to submit it. As far as i know form 80 is a mandatory document that need to be uploaded.

    You would here the people on this group saying shortly about the same what i had said. Rather than making further delay it would be best to submit as if IMMI department ask it later and it would delay again in processing your application.

    Thanks AJK, 

    You're a legend!

    Although this form 80 is going to take me about 4 days to fill in 😂 I Don't know how I feel about that 😂 All worth it in the end though! Cannot wait!

    Hey Guys, 

    Quick question. Immi has requested, AFP Check, UK Police Check and Health Checks but no Form 80. Do you think they will ask me for a form 80 if they haven't already? 

    I would love to try and get away with not doing the Form 80 as it looks as if it is a massive pain in the arse but if they are going to ask me I would rather get it out the way now if you know what I mean. 

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    This is a late update but I have been overseas for the past 4 weeks. We received news from immigration regarding my nomination, YAY. My boss and lawyer have collated the information requested from immigration and we have completed this today. 

    The request came from immigration on the 13/12/18. As immigration give 28 days to collate the information requested, does anyone know how long it usually takes to get an answer on our nomination after the 28th day? 

    Good luck everyone, I hope to see some grants today 🙂
