darshandave Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Hello All , We have applied for 190 NSW visa on 7th November 2013. All documents have been uploaded, PCC & Medicals done as well. The documents status show as "Received" ..but no email from any CO ... anyone in the same boat ? By when shall we expect a GRANT ? Hi Dipti, I have also applied from offshore on 11/11/2013 from India. I was wondering did u get CO allocated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cairnzees Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 The CO asked for form 80 for my husband and myself, and some extra proof of paid employment. Once I submitted extra info it was 2 weeks after we got the grant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staffordshiregirl Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Hi Cairns That's amazing and very quick. I thought the whole visa process took about a year. My husband and I are looking at applying for a 190 visa and been told we can based on info on the solid plastering code but as he doesn't have a formal qualification only 9 years work experience in the trade itself that we can go through vet assess and it would provide him with a cert level 3 Australian qualification. Is anybody else in a simular situation? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is anybody else in a simular situation? Thanks We started process nov 2012 . We also had to go through vetassess most construction and trades need to. My husband was self employed so took a while getting info on all of his previous work. He then had to sit the IELTS test to gain more points and it took him 3 attempts so wasted a lot of time then state nomination which took 3 months and finally submitting visa. long process but well worth it and if your doing it through an agent it should be pretty straight forward . We wasted alot of time through making silly mistakes. But hey ho oz here we come . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staffordshiregirl Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Hiya Thanks for your reply so did u do it yourself then rather than a agent? I thought about it would save near on 3k but seems risky and a lot of work figuring out ourselves. would u mind talking to me more about the vetassess process? For example does he have to do the documentation with app form then a verbal conversation with an assessor then based on whether he's says yes or no have to have a practical assessment ?? Is it one or the other or the both because I can't quite figure this out on the websites it's confused me...doesn't take much though haha. I don't suppose your husband did solid plastering?? And yes long road for u but worth it I mean I have told my husband it's likely the whole process takes 2 years. When do u think you'll move to oz then? So exciting for u x We started process nov 2012 . We also had to go through vetassess most construction and trades need to.

And yes long road for u but worth it I mean I have told my husband it's likely the whole process takes 2 years. When do u think you'll move to oz then? So exciting for u x Hi , we did online application for vetassess then you need to send off documents there is a document checklist on the vetassess website. Whether you have agent or not u still need to get the info together yourself which is the hardest bit. Once its been rcieved from vetassess we got to choose between a skpye intrrview or a practical test my husband did the verbal as that was the first date available once he got results from that(2wks) he got a certificate for AQFIII in carpentry and joinery. I am sure that each trade is different as some have to just do practical. It took a total of 3 months to get skills assessment most of that was waiting for vetassess to recieve docs in post. I hope this helps as it seems that long ago now Ask away if u have any other quiries cos about to make a folder of the process for my sister inlaw so she can join us in a year or so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
