Not similar .  Applied on july2019

nothing happens yet

Wow you are waiting longer then mine.

I got nomination approval Jan 2020 submitted my visa straight after January 2020 and heard nothing as of yet.

But all of my colleagues who had applied end of 2019 and beginning of 2020 have their case either approved or documents requested.

I thought my case is frustrating.

Micgeo I can’t believe you visa is till not granted.They asked you for “position availability” ages ago.

My Chef colleague had applied September 2019 and they just called our director 2 weeks ago asking if he is still employed and literally 1 hour later he got his PR granted.I’m same company as restaurant manager and mine file isn’t opened yet.

Anyone here in hospitality? Been waiting for my 186 for 16 months and still nothing. Last time I heard from immigration was almost a year ago to sent them my police check from my country and that's about it. 
 

I applied august 2019 for business nomination and got nomination approved January 2020 and applied end of January 2020 for visa part.Since then no movement.As restaurant manager.

Even though with an approved nomination they aren’t processing it.You definitely aren’t alone.
Unfortunately I do believe that this won’t change until the government change their approach to immigration.

Just now, Emix said:

Same here !

Restaurant manager applied  Visa applied 27.January 2019.Nomination already approved.Almost a year now.

Unfortunately I do think that they won’t go ahead with hospitality Applications until life is back to normal.We probably have to wait another 6-12months.

* sorry I meant visa applied 27.January 2020.

Hi members

I was a silent reader just decided to sign up to share our journey.

Restaurant manager WA

186 applied 5 October 2019

we did medical ourselves in January 2020

first response from Immigration March 2020(s56, some proof from accountant, proof from business owner applicant need further 2years)

Still waiting 

 

I can tell you guys, it’s kill us mentally. I saw many of applications lodged end of 2020 and already PR

How long we have to wait?

We pay tax, rent house, spend money 

I don’t need financial support from Australia 

I am really disappointed and hopeless 

Same here !

Same here applied August 2019 for nomination as restaurant manager,nomination approved January.

applied end of January for PR and it’s still received.

I’m above the given timeframe so I called immigration but the answer was that they cannot give any application status updates.

Anyone here with occupation as a cook in Queensland who got approved this year ? 

 

• Visa : 186 TRT (2 years on 457)
• Visa Applied - 26 November 2019
• Nomination Applied - 18 September 2019
• Nomination Approved - 30 October 2019
• Medical Examination: 22 October 2019
• State: QLD
• No. of applicants : 3 
• Occupation: Cook 
• Visa Status - received

Isisesperante I don’t think that any chef,cook,restaurant manager has received any Grant since the start of the pandemic.And it doesn’t look like it will start any time soon.My chef colleague is waiting since last year August with an approved nomination in January.I have beeen waiting since January with an approved nomination.Our MA doesn’t sound positive either.

As usual I always stay corrected..if someone else has different info they can share..

I lodged my visa application after nomination was approved. This additional information request only came in this morning. I guess since it was more than 9 months since approval of nomination, they wanted a confirmation. I had lodged the latest payslip last month but i guess that wasn't good enough for them. Should be able to submit it tomorrow.

Great.That’s gives us hope because your occupation isn’t on the priority list either but they started to process your case.
hope you get your PR soon.

I’m a restaurant manager with an approved nomination since January.it’s been 9 months and still no movement.I get that they want us priorities occupations with higher incomes etc but how long can they ignore us ? We are sponsor employed have a job and pay our taxes so I don’t understand that they pretend we don’t exist.At some point they have to give decisions about our applications too.Or announc that all applications beside PMSOL are on hold so we would stop chasing our status...

Restaurant managers and chef’s aren’t even on this published list

Hi guys, I have been a silent reader as well. Here is my status 

186 DE

Position: University Lecturer

Onshore: No

State: ACT

Number of applicant: 4 (all offshore)

Nomination applied: before 15 April 2020

Visa applied: 15 April 2020

Health check completed: 5 March 2020

 

Patricius, I am in a similar situation, although my visa was applied earlier. I was told by the agent that the Department is processing offshore 186 visa applications but quite slowly. You might check up the statistics for March-June 2020 the Department provides on the official website. The statistics, however, does not sound optimistic for us, university lecturers, because zero 186 visas were granted to offshore university lecturers during the period April-June 2020.

 

 

Kgbspender,

how can I find the statistics on immigration website ?

i tried but can’t find any information regards Visa grant statistics?

Hi Everyone,

I got Monday motivation news today.

My MA told me one of his applicant Chef got his nomination approval today.

This is not related to me but i think it's a good hope for hospitality related applicants.

Hope for the best.

That’s actually great news for everyone from Hospitality industry.Im waiting as restaurant manager too since end of January with a approved nomination.

My MA told me in July that all Hospitality Cases are on hold until further notice.

If they approve nomination for a chef that means something has might has changed.

Thats exciting!

I don’t think you are allowed to cancel your private insurance prior granting of your 186 PR.

Is the insurance not an obligation for 457/482 ?

Kewalch I thin your question is a bit misunderstood.You are worried that importing your case will have impact of your MA with the immigration.

But that’s a definitely No.Importing application will allow you to see your case.And your MA will receive any communication made from your CO.
