  1. Yes, I perfectly remember your nick name next to mine in the famous spreadsheet. I can only suggest, find anything that keeps your thinking out of the visa process for as much as you can. Remember, there are so many people in the "waiting queue" that have been waiting form much longer.
  2. Good news on my side - Visa Grant today! Finally, a big relief after so much hesitation and frustration about the processing time. Guys, keep you faith! I know, it drains and poisons you, but there will be your day! Thanks everyone, and good luck!
  3. @ezzzzzz I think there are quite some people on the forum in the same situation - got nomination and no visa precessing for months. Not sure what is happening.
  4. @Fung Are you talking about this http://www.ozkiwi2001.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/MoJ-Consent-to-Disclosure-of-Information.pdf?
  5. Interesting! Actually, I have found that there are two options for New Zealand (with two different forms): Request for Criminal Conviction History - Third Party -> guess the one you used. Request you own Criminal Conviction History -> the one I have uploaded with my application. I am not sure if it makes a difference, as I have applied for visa by myself. I also could not find a requirement that specifically asks to use any of the above. The page https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-text/evidence/Pages/et-h0290.aspx says "All visa applicants (and Family Sponsors) are required to provide a penal clearance certificate or police check from each country visited in the last 10 years" indicating that both should fit the bill.
  6. No, I just uploaded my NZ AFP National Police Check report I got by email directly with my application. I am not sure what consent you are talking about. Did you apply via MA or by yourself?
  7. Hi @Fung, I have been waiting for 35 days since my Nomination approval. I hold a NZ PR (not citizenship). What do you mean by "how long it takes DoHA to verify NZ police certificates with MOJ"?
  8. I have a child who is turning 18 years in June this year. Does anyone know what consequences this may have on the visa application (assuming we don't get it by then). I do not have an MA to ask cause I have applied for the visa on my own.
  9. Does anyone know if the 30-40 days rule apply after the Nomination Grant? It has been 33 days since my nomination was granted, but no news afterwards. I understand that the two applications are the separate processes. What I do not understand, however, is why the DHA considers new applications instead of finalising half processed ones. Any ideas would be appreciated.
  10. It is definitely two separate cases. My nomination was approved a month ago, whereas the application was not even opened yet. All the documents for the application are up to date, so I do not expect the CO to ask me anything atm (only something very specific). It is, however, so frustrating to wait for the visa knowing it can arrive any moment and still does not.
  11. Agreed, you may call yourself whatever you want "in Facebook". As long as you do not use the alias in legal documents it does not have any legal consequences.
  12. No, my company is not an accredited one. I am also not aware of any rules the immi office is using in their judgement.
  13. @Johnkey8 I have been waiting since June 3rd 2018. Got my nomination on April 11th 2019, but still waiting for my visa (no further requests from immi). My company has sponsored heavily in the past, and I am currently the only one I know who is still waiting. I think we all need to be patient and wait. Do not worry, it will come one day.
  14. @Dip I have done my application by myself - do you know if it makes a difference? I have submitted all the documents.
  15. @karsheka You cannot activate a bridging visa. It will be automatically activated once your 457 visa expired. So, yes, if you have a valid 457 visa, you can go overseas and return back.
  16. @Hex 100% agree! And this is exactly the reason I asked here. Being said, I also think that the spreadsheet is relatively accurate, meaning that the proportions are still representative to the reality.
  17. Hmm, saw 2 on Monday and no one on Tuesday. Curious what happens during these short weeks...
  18. I am asking, as 2 colleagues of mine (same company) have already received their golden visas (a month ago and this week), though applied (for both nomination and visa) either at the same time with my nomination or a month later. This make me think that the delay is actually due to late application.
  19. Does anyone know if submitting the application after 3 month after lodging the nomination actually delays the processing time? It is hard to judge on this from the spreadsheet data.
  20. Got same email just now. Does anyone know the timeline from this moment on?
