457 - Current processing times


tbk

Recommended Posts

I am 10 days away from reaching the maximum time for 457 High Risk Processing.

I lodged my visa application without a MA on May 16th, 2016.

No further documentation has been requested, no medicals, no messages, not anything. Application status is still: Received.

 

My sponsor already had an American and a Brit sponsored so TRN code was given a week after lodging nomination and I lodged visa application a week after that.

That probably means Sponsorship was already approved, right?

 

My field is Public Relations and Corporate Communications specialist. Aside from recommendation letters I also added a letter from my aunt who works for the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) stating my good character and family background. My aunt was the Australian Consul in Lima and Cape Town so maybe that'll help a little.

 

No news at least is better than bad news..

So, let's wait.

 

Adolfo.

Well I had some good news yesterday morning land in my inbox! My employer approved nomination arrived.

Lodged on the 12th July and received on the 6th September. Now it over to me to start my part of the application process without an agent!

 

Wish me luck!

 

Does anyone one know how long that normally takes?

Congrats Suzanne!

 

I got my nomination approved on the 30th and lodged my visa application on Sept 5. HR mentioned that it should only take about a week or 2 but I think it will take a month!!!!

 

 

My nomination and sbs approved 3 months ago, my MA applied my visa along with my wife and a child, it's been 3 months now I am still just waiting for the visa.

We had our visa approved in 1 month. Applied 1st August, approved 2nd September. This isn't the normal though, a lot of people are saying they're still waiting :(

 

We applied without a MA as well and weren't asked for any additional information so my advice would be to upload everything you possibly can to support your application!

Congrats! Yes your dependent can work without approvals.

 

May I ask when did you complete health check and the date hospital upload the health check result?

Thanks for your prompt reply, I think the working days for visa application starts from the date they received health results.

 

My visa application was on July 8, medical done July 10 but due to one of my dependent age between 2-14(?), blood test was required and the result took 14 days came out and hospital to upload. (Adults only 7 days).

 

So if I'm lucky and my guessing was correct, I might be able to got my visa next week.

 

Cheers!

Just found out my health result was one month earlier than yours to be uploaded and I'm from low risk country.

 

May I ask your destination? I guess not Queensland.

If your dependent is your partner, then the answer is an easy yes. If your dependent is your child, I'd suggest you speak with a migration agent to see what impact their working may have on their current or possibly future visa.

Hi yad,

 

My situation is similar like yours regarding IELTS, expired after visa lodged. Should be fine but no harm to take another test.

 

IELTS test should be popular in Japan and suggest you book the test soon.
