  1. Don't worry about it. Speak clearly to your migration agent and follow their advise. Get a second opinion if it helps. Personally, I believe there is absolutely no issues with two different occupations. DHA realizes there is a lot of overlap between similar occupation codes.
  2. 1) They won't 2) There is no specific order. Whatever comes to their desk first. But remember if your 186 is granted and your 482 is granted after that then your 186 will cease to exist and you won't be a PR. I would suggest, give your notice to employer 1 and work for employer 2. If Bridging Visa C comes into effect, apply for working rights on it. It is usually granted fairly easily. Seek advise from a registered agent/lawyer on this. Get a second/third opinion if needed.
  3. Some great news from me! 186 DE granted on 4th May. Less than a month from application. Below is the timeline and other details: Application date: 16th April 2021 S56 request for health check: 20th April 2021 Health check completed on 27th April 2021 and migration agent confirmed results were uploaded by the clinic on 29th April 2021. DHA called my employer on 4th May morning to confirm employment and few other details. Visa granted by afternoon of the same day. Very, very quick. Occupation: Software Engineer (261313) which is on PMSOL Location: Offshore (yes, that's not a typo!). Working remotely from home at the moment. I was concerned that offshore applicants weren't being looked at but I believe for PMSOL occupations it doesn't really matter. Happy to answer any questions that may assist other people. (Please do not ask me about my employer's details, however)
  4. They are prioritizing PMSOL occupations at the moment. 263111 is not on there so even if you were onshore it would take time (though you'd have bridging visa). My immigration lawyer (very reputed and knowledgeable) tells me they have seen offshore grants for PMSOL occupations. For employer sponsored, temporary visas which are on PMSOL and applied offshore, the turn around is 1 week if DFAT has granted travel exemption so for PR visas it should not be very different.
  5. Anyone offshore with an occupation PMSOL receive their 186 visa recently? Or does anybody know if DHA is processing them at the moment?
  6. Yes, my last flight was business but got bumped off cos of the 50% reduction in flight caps. Have to wait for the refund and increase in caps before I can shell out $6k again.
  7. Anybody know if 186 DE for PMSOL occupations are being processed for offshore candidates? I currently have a 482 visa with travel exemption but finding it very difficult to return to Australia due to the flight caps otherwise I would have been onshore.
