Ricky0411 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I know! Pretty impressed as I did it myself instead of using an MA, I was so worried I would have missed something.I'm so excited I don't know what to do with myself! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk My last application 3 years ago from visa lodge to approval took only 9 days. Same sponsor, same destination, don't know what took so long this time. But from this forum, it seems destination to Queensland were all delayed. Anyone to Queensland got approved less than 8 weeks here ? 從我的iPhone使用Tapatalk 發送 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samson Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Hi Samson, You are moving to where as a what? Also, isn't the reference part of form 80? What were the requirements you had to submit for stage 3? I am currently in Perth working as a photocopier technician and being sponsored as that, but they use me more as a production printer tech so it's more skilled apparently. I have just been asked to prove my experience and skills. I uploaded a couple of references and payslips. My qualifications don't really match my trade so not sent them in. Ive been doing the job for 7 months here is Oz so I am hoping it all goes through ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prita Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Hi Prita, so sad to hear about your refusal. Training Benchmark should be 1% of total wages of company for last 12 months. It should be paid for Australian employee to be trained. Its one of requirements for nomination application your MA should know this. One of my friends nomination was refused because company didn't pay training benchmark. His employer paid the training benchmark And reapplied with 21 days and got nomination approved after 3 months. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk yeah even my employer is reapplying as per the MA and my employer he fullfills all the criteria, anyways we have 21 dys more to hope, just keeping my fingers crossed. i hope i too get the approval like ur friend..

niknikniknik Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Do I need to create a new immi account?? Hey! Yes you need to create a new immi, your sponsor has a separate one that you can not see. Use your TRN number to set it up! Make sure you have organised all the documents you need to upload as some may take some time to get. Fill out your application and when happy submit. You can save the application and go back to it later if you want to submit right away. You will be asked to pay for your visa at the point of submitting the application. Once your application is received you can start uploading your documents. Also on the left hand side there will be a tab for health assessments, click on that and print off the generated referral letter for your medical, this will have the HAP ID on it which is used by the hospital/immi to electronically submit/view your results. After all this it's a waiting game.... Good luck! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgqs Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Thanks so much! Can I set up an immi account now? I'm in the office but the documents are at home. Do you think I can just submit the docs tomorrow ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think I can just submit the docs tomorrow ? Yeah you can set it up now! You have time to upload your documents so don't panic. They don't look at your application for ages really but you don't want to be caught out if they try to process quickly!

niknikniknik Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Hey Nik, Sorry to bother you again but can you let me know the requirements you submitted? 1. CV 2. Form 80 3. Transcripts, diplomas 4. Health insurance certificate (did you submit the health insurance template?) 5. Health check Anything else I missed? No problem! I submitted: Degree certificate- I also attached a certified copy, I wasn't sure if a normal copy was ok. Degree transcript Post grad course transcript Birth certificate- must be sent in colour CV IELTS- you don't need IELTS if you are from uk but I just did it as it was easier than gathering all my school certificates) Job offer- I attached the letter of offer sent by my employer Registration document- as I am a registered nurse I attached proof of my Australian licence. I'm not sure if you would have to do a skills assessment in other professions. Health insurance letter- so if you arrange your health insurance you have to tell them it's specifically for a 457 visa and they should have a template that they will email to you. I went with Bupa. Very helpful! Passport ID page- in colour Work references- last 5 years International police check report- I used fit2work for this as I needed it for my nursing registration. Double check if you need a police report- i read in other posts it was being requested so I just attached it to save being held up. Hope this helps!

dgqs Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 I assume I can only start attaching documents once the online application is submitted? I am trying to attach documents but I can't seem to find the option for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antriksh Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Hi Everyone, I have a small query. My MA told me that today my VISA got cleared. But it'll take 5-6 days to get that Grant number. Usually how long it'll take to get that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
