Aron Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Hi Guys, I want to let you know that my nomination is approved. Occupation: software engineer Nomination/VISA Applied date: 27th, Sep, 2018 Nomination approved date: 1th March, 2019. VISA: pending I applied nomination and visa at the same time, however i have not completed police check and body examination. I really should do that earlier as I might have seen visa grant at the same time. Damn. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eva.L Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I`m starting to think TRT is being approved quicker than DE. Please correct me if I`m wrong. The company has applied 1 year ago and just on the 4th of February the CO requested updated documents. Still showing as Further Assessment.

Hi Eva.L The visa processing times as per Home Affairs website would indicate that... DE: Processing Time 75% of applications: 12 months 90% of applications: 15 months TRT: Processing Time 75% of applications: 12 months 90% of applications: 13 months However as we know in this forum really case by case - and above time frames are just indication and not always accurate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LULULALA Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Hi All, I have been following this forum for awhile and would like to seek some advice from all fellow visa applicants here. I have applied for ENS 186 DE offshore and my nomination was approved in May 2018 and now pending confirmation on my visa approval. Once my visa approved, my nominated employer would need me to report in within 3 months. My question now is: - 1. Once my visa/pr approved if i decided not to work with this employer, what will happen to my visa? 2. Will it be automatically pull back or is there any rules stating that once visa approved i must start work with the nominated employer within a certain time frame? 3. Or once pr approved, i must be in Aus within a time frame or it will be revoked? What if i delay my entry to Aus? Thanks in advance and sincerely seek clarification and advice from all.

Mrv Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Hi guys, This forum helps me a lot to understand the process. MA lodged our applications last April 2018. Nomination approved 26Feb 2019. That's a good sign right? I asked the MA if we have CO handling our applications, they said they can't provide that information with us. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the whole point of this visa is that you work for at least 2 years with that employer or at least intend too. It is worrying that you have reserves already of working with this employer after they have "invested" in the nomination application for you. Your visa is granted on the basis that you intend to complete 2 years with that employer - If you applied for the 186 without a genuine intention to work for your employer for the full 2-year period, and it is determined that the application was made with fraudulent or misleading claims, then you are at risk and can lose your 186. 2/3. Unsure however usually offshore visa grants you have to enter by certain period (I think 3 months is correct) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unsure however usually offshore visa grants you have to enter by certain period (I think 3 months is correct) I would also add that if you decided to not start work with the Employer - they would be pretty annoyed about it and would call IMMI immediately. This could see your visa cancelled. Normally the "2 years" can be hard to enforce - especially if you are already working with the employer and you leave on good terms, say after 6 months - 1 year. However your case is slightly different as you have not started working with them yet. It would be pretty easy to come to the conclusion that you never intended to work with them in the first place and hence your application would be deemed fraudulent. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance and sincerely seek clarification and advice from all. @LULULALA 1 - Nothing, there is no law that forces you to work with the employer. -- However, I can guarantee this would not be a good choice, as all that needs to happen is 1 phone call from the employer, or for Immi to check up and notice you don't work there, implying you never had any intention to work there - which would break the rule required for the visa and hence, you'll have your residency rejected. 2 - Again, the visa is granted on the impression that you intent to work for the company, if this is false - then the visa will be granted in error and retracted. 3 - There is a period where you need to enter, once granted - however, i'm not sure what it is.

The company is small but really good. I`m starting to be worried. Hopefully once the 28 days of the requested additional documents to the company we will hear something. Hope is what keeps us moving but very anxious though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
