dingdong Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I am hoping someone can provide some advice on this. I have applied for 457 (Subsequent Entrant). I have received a request for further information from the Case Officer, one of the things is that my partners employer needs to provide further information in his letter which includes: Nomination approval reference number (relating to your nomination); Does this mean that my partners employer has to apply to nominate me like he did when he sponsored my partner? Or is it my partners reference number? I read it to be that he needs to nominate me seperately? His employer isn't aware of this as the only time he has put through a de-facto application was when it was a joint one. Hoping someone can assist.

MaggieMay24 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 The employer doesn't need to submit a new nomination, however they do need to provide you a letter whereby they specifically confirm they will extend their nomination to include you. Perhaps you also need to provide the original nomination approval number as a reference for DIBP to properly link your application to a valid/approved nomination.

dingdong Posted July 2, 2014 Author Share Posted July 2, 2014 Thanks for your quick reply. The part that threw me was "(relating to your nomination);" - which made me think they maybe had to nominate me seperately, or something!? I just want to be certain so that I can pass the correct info on and they hopefully won't require any further info in relation to this point. Another thing they asked for was proof that I have lawfully enrolled with Medicare/proof of appropriate health cover. I can't at this time find where my letter is that came with my card, is it possible to get a JP to sign a copy of my Medicare card - or will this not suffice? I have health insurance (and I uploaded the confirmation letter with my initial application) but rather than go to the company for a more detailed letter, I thought it would speed things up to do Medicare as I work with a JP. Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaggieMay24 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Since you're being included in his nomination, it would now be your nomination too. I'm surprised the confirmation letter from your health insurance provider wasn't sufficient - I assume the coverage is sufficient for the requirements of a 457 visa? But if you have Medicare, then I'd try submitting a copy of your card and see if they need further information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dingdong Posted July 2, 2014 Author Share Posted July 2, 2014 Me too, they're main advert on the website is that their cover complies with the requirements for a 457 visa. I had more than 20 items to attached so I have had to group them together - it wouldn't have thought it would have been overlooked as I updated it under the section 'health insurance'. Anyways - many thanks for your help. Fingers crossed this is all they need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
