Good luck and hope everyone else waiting to hear does so soon! Congratulations. I am very similar, my visa was lodged on 23rd November and approved this morning for both myself and my girlfriend who has also received a 457 defacto visa. We are going to NSW No medicals or request for information fortunately. I hope everyone else who is playing the waiting game hears soon, I was advised 6-8 weeks only two weeks ago.

Samson Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 So to bring this thread back to life, I have decided to call them and sit in the hour long queue.. Its currently been only 10 mins..... Lets see what they can tell me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tal Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samson Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 So they answered in 28 mins, and advised me that there hasn't been any further updates since I sent in the additional docs that were requested a few months ago. He advised I am ok to work until April on my current visa and just hold tight and wait for them to process the application. I must say the guy who i spoke to was very polite and helpful. So 65 working days since the RFI and I will just wait some more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritGP Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Has anyone had their 457 issued this week? I'm now at 7 weeks + 1 day. LR, off shore decision ready application. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garym85 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Has anyone had their 457 issued this week? I'm now at 7 weeks + 1 day. LR, off shore decision ready application. . I had my 457 issued, as above. It took 5 days from submitting to issue for myself and defacto. I have no idea what the logic behind it being so quick but my employer had a MA pushing for it to be priority. Hope you hear soon Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritGP Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Thanks Gary. You seem to have gotten lucky there. I submitted mine on 13th October and the 457 office advised me they were processing applications lodged from 11th October onwards from Monday... Hopefully not much waiting left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritGP Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Hi there. The exposure from medical chest xrays is limited and the potential adverse effects are often over stated. Furthermore, the risks of the xray to the feoutus are reduced with a chest xray (compared to an abdominal xray) and a sheild =ing mechanism is often used for pregnant women to prevent unessecary radiation from getting to the feoutus. What i'm suggesting is that you look in to the limited risks of chest xray exposure yourself with your wife before deciding to delay the xray. My understanding is that case officers will look at RFI cases after 28 days - and it may take longer if you suply the xray after this date. https://hps.org/publicinformation/ate/q10300.html http://www.public.health.wa.gov.au/cproot/1384/2/radiation_and_pregnancy.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
