Shobi777 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Shobi777, can you ask your employer to try to chase up nomination? They donot care I have asked them before they said to me just wait when immi will finish process they will send it to us nothing else ,I spoke to my MA and he said to me wait 2 more weeks and then he will try to contact immigration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traceyd Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Shobi777, if you go to immi.gov.au, and then go to help and support and click on contact us, there is a couple of boxes relating to things, tick and another page comes up, scroll down and try to find one similar to what you have applied and then send a contact form to enquire with your visa TRN number if you have it from application and see if you et a response, I did this and that is how I found out at the time my nomination was successfully lodged but not approved.

Melbkitty Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Hi can anyone tell me what the process is following Medical - I had mine last week do I need to do anything or is it sent directly to immigration? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traceyd Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Melbkitty, They upload the medicals and they that is usually the last thing the case officer is waiting for before they grant the visa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swimming Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Hi can anyone tell me what the process is following Medical - I had mine last week do I need to do anything or is it sent directly to immigration? If the co ask you to do this he/she will give you a hap id the result will be given to co directly according to this ID you need not to do anything after the body check Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDR Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 I heard an interesting bit of news today. Immi is working to hire some retired CO's on contract to help deal with the backlog, my contact expects to be working in the next couple of weeks. The "target" processing time, for a complete "decision ready" file, once a CO is assigned is half a day, or in other words, they are targeting two decisions per CO per day.

PaddyIrishMan Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Hi, Does anyone know what happens if you leave your company soon after being granted an ENS 186 permanent residency? I know it's frowned upon but do they really chase people up on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drsurf Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Can anyone advise? I am applying direct entry and had my nomination approved within 2 days of applying back in December. Unfortunately I couldn't lodge my application at that time as I was waiting for police clearance checks to come back. Made my full application with all medicals etc on 12th of feb. is there any advantage of applying after the nomination was approved in terms of time taken to grant the visa or am I at the back of the queue and processed according to application date? fyi contacted the case officer who approved the nomination at the Perth office. They are processing November applications currently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi drsury we are on the same boat, my nomination was approved on Jan, and submitted the visa application at the end of Jan I think we have to come to back of the queue as the visa application date. The only difference is there is a case officer's name on my visa application acknowledge letter, maybe it means I have a co already, maybe not , I am not sure. I did not get a word from the submission of my application to right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
