ACT June 2017

Thats right. I agree with you.

Your application would be processed and can be decided while you are out of Australia.

What is your occupation. What kind of business? How long did u work before business closed? Which regional area are you? Do you have proof that you have been actively looking for a job in the same area? Why Melbourne and Sydney? Why not another regional area?

Thank you for the good wish.

Did you ring Immi to ask what's happening?

Congratulations Ish..So happy for you.

Congratulations Ish. So happy for you.

Congratulations Mano. The stress is all over. I am so happy for you. Please can you share your timeline. I know you would have done that sometime before.

Being that your family menbers are included in your application, it would be very difficult for them to meet the genuine temporary entrant (GTE) requirement which is attached to all temporary visas. In other words it would be too difficult to convince immi that they would return after visiting you. You may want to talk to a migration lawyer but they will most likely tell you the same thing.

Thanks

Yes he can leave after PR grant, but he needs to be able to show he made genuine effort to remain in the position. Bullying and harassment is a good enough reason to leave an employer. You just have to weigh the pros and cons of the available options.

Processing time is updated monthly and because it is an average of the time taken to process all the Visas for that month, it is very unreliable. Some people get their visa in 10 months and others after 24 months. You will be surprised to get an answer soon because some applications from jan and feb 2018 have been processed. All the best.

Sorry to hear that. Please take it easy.

I am so sorry to hear this. Very pathetic. If you cannot resolve this issue at your workplace, the only option unfortunately is to lodge a fresh application with a new employer. You will get a Bridging visa C with no travel rights if you were on a bridging Visa A. Your wellbeing is number one. If you have the resources, please move ahead because mind you, you will have to remain with same employer even after visa grant. All the best. Cheers.

Congratulations. So happy for you. Any request for more docs after your nomination.

Hi Tipu, I believe you will hear from them soon. Fingers crossed.

Thank you very much for that piece of information. My agent updated my AFP and also submitted recent payslips, but said we cant update Medicals unless immi requests for it. My medical was completed in june 2017. So the medical is the only thing that is yet to be updated. Immi did not request anything. Once again your input really helped.

Congratulations. So happy for you. I was sponsored the same position in ACT. Timeline: Visa and nomination lodged june 2017 Nomination approved 1st Nov 2018 No document requested Visa status: received. Haven't heard anything since nomination approval and visa status is still showing received.

3 cases: The Department of Immigration and Border Protection refused to grant the applicant a Regional Employer Nomination visa. The applicant claimed that he had the relevant qualifications and relevant work experience required for the visa. The AAT affirmed the decision under review. Haly and Minister for Home Affairs (Migration) [2018] AATA 1051 The Department of Home Affairs refused the applicant's skilled visa on the basis that he did not pass the character test due to a conviction of culpable homicide in South Africa. The Tribunal set aside the decision. Kumar and Minister for Home Affairs (Migration) [2018] AATA 1105 The applicant’s Employer nomination visa was refused by a delegate of the Minister for Immigration and Border Protection as he did not pass the 'character test' due to an indecent assault offence. The Tribunal set aside the decision and in substitution decided the applicant should not be refused the visa.

Comgratulations mate. So happy for you.

He asked visa refusal after nomination approval. So its not the same thing as visa refusal after failed nomination. The information is for people who have been waiting for visa after nomination approval .The purpose of this forum is to share important information and NOT to vent our frustrations.

That is not being negative. Information is power and having one in a thousand visa refused after nomination approval is actually being positive

That is not being negative. Information is power and having one in a thousand visa refused after nomination approval is actually being positive.

Those were nomination refusal, not visa refusal. Its very rare to have RSMS visa refused after nomination approval. Please see my previous post. Because it is a high priority visa it hard for the visa to be refused after nomination is approved. See possible reasons for visa refusal in my previous post. Cheers.

After Nomination approval, there is 99% chance of Visa grant. The few reasons for visa refusal are: 1. Serious criminal history (that went to court) 2. Serious Medical condition (that is likely to be burden to australia health system eg HIV/ AIDs, Kidney failure requiring regular dialysis. 3. Character isssue including bogus/fake documents and fake Certificates in your present or past applications. 4. Qualification not matching position. If you dont have any issue with those, you will sure get you Visa. I only know of one person that got refusal after successful nominatuon because he had Cert IV. But he won the case at the AAT. All the best guys!
