Visa and nomination applied may 2017, nomination approved October 2018, thats 17 months, visa granted on february 2019, total 21 months. This is to my own understanding. 

Ok this makes more sense...lol otherwise nomination being approved in 5 months seems unrealistic...

You are the one who is wrong. May 2017 to Oct 2018 is 17 months.

The result of the visa was not finalized in October 2018...it was finalized 15th Feb 2019. So this person should make up their mind when did they apply in 2017 or 2018 because if it's May 2018 to Feb 2019 is 9 months.

yes, by mistake. it was 2018 not 2017....sorry...took 17 months...

If it's a mistake how did U calculate 21 months?? U not only made a typo mistake but U even wrote at the bottom it took 21 months...how could U make such a big error? If it's May 2018 then that makes 9 months not 17 months as U claim...are U just here to waste people time by giving wrong information.

6.After three weeks, same Co asked for medical check for both applicants. 

But between first and second request, we blessed with boy. so, I had to add his name in my file. So I had to applied his birth certificate and passport. it took five weeks. In between I and my wife finished our medical check. in this period CO changed because of X-mas holidays started.

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

Yes I'm sure you can take up the promotion. I think the HR doesn't want you to get that pay rise so they are making up bullshit excuses. As long as your not changing your profession and your with the same employer this should not be a problem at all. A simple fix to this is - according to the 187 visa requirements, you cannot quit without substantial reasons but it's much easier for the employer to dismiss you. So ask your boss to fire you on Friday and rehire you as a sous chef on Monday with a new contract.

Ur welcome Mark23. I applied for AFP yesterday, as soon i get it i will upload into my account. Any idea how long they will take after i submitted my AFP ?

They say around 21days to get AFP but for my last visa I got it in less than 2 weeks

Hi 

I need some advice guys

I have applied as a cook in a restaurant and a retail shop. also another person as a manager for the shop under same management. But his nomination got rejected saying position not required.  Because one nomination was rejected will there be any effect on m nomination.

DNJ

Hi DNJ

What is the turnover of the business? If the turnover is over a certain amount then ur nomination will not be rejected based on the number of staff required for running of the business.

Thanks Shoi84. After you were asked for AFP I'm assuming 12 Feb 2018. Have U got ur visa yet??

Is anyone waiting from November 2017 for their nomination or visa to be approved for a cook or a chef?
