Izzielizzie Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 (edited) Hi @jess6, yes, been waiting over 8 months now so praying the grant comes ASAP! Thanks for sharing your MA's input - did she say the same would apply to 186 Direct Entry applications? Read in one of the articles that DE applications (albeit already lodged) might be affected should the CSOL changes impact their occupation. How awful would that be!! I hear ya - have regrets too - been with my employer well over 2 years but had to go via DE because I turned down their 457 offer since we were already under spouse's 457! After his ENS didn't pushed through, wish I'd gone on my own 457 so that I could've done 186 TRN instead. After 8+ years on various visas here in Australia, PR is well overdue. Like yourself, my employer-sponsor is also a large, secure organisation and in the past, processing times have been around 4 months and thought we'd get processed quickly all things considered. But at this point, I'm resigned to the fact that maybe we'll be lucky to even get it by January, ha ha! Hope we get it soonest. The waiting is killer... @Izzielizzie - I lodged on June 20 this year, so I hope you get it before me Edited December 13, 2016 by MaggieMay24 Fixed quote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluegrass Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Hey @Lzzielizzie - thanks for sharing your story - it helps to know we are all in company of people who understand our anxiety, frustration, hopelessness and even regret! Somehow, we will all get there! I am the perpetual thorn in my MA's side as well, getting super anxious i'm at NINE months with no word on Wednesday. Her advice is to prepare for January and potentially waiting a year is a reality. I have found in this time of so much uncertainty and no transparency, managing my own expectations has helped. We will both get there!!! Sending you positive vibes! -------- 14 March 2016 Nom & Visa DE x 2 ppl - LR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely, there must be a reason. I find it annoying that Migration Agents are unable to give reasons or hints on why some files take longer.
