Richo Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 same here. just waiting desperately and restlessly Hi Manson, As a fellow June DE applicant when do you think your residency application will be processed? Obviously there are no new updates from the Dept and we have no other option but to accept and embrace the wait (I'm not looking to restart a conversation on this) but base purely on a hunch/gut-feel my wife thinks mine will be approved on Valentine's day (which I suspect is a reminder that valentines day is coming) and I don't know why but I think it will be on Feb 22nd. What about you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about you? Hi Richo i believe your suspect is quite reasonable , LOL my wife has same vision too, she said pr will be approved before it hits eight months which is fair enough prediction. on the other hand i have been thinking 457 for a while, you know in case either 186 fail or take much longer, it might not bad idea to turn another way, most important thing for my family is to start life in au . more waiting would hold back our plans, and sometimes plans are no longer plans if the perfect timing pass. for now starting to think about a plan B would helps with anxiety of waiting and gives some sort of hope about life itself. anyway, we are far away from the worst situation. try to be positive here with family. cheers, mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came over Australia from the UK on a 457 in 2013. In 2013 was certainly quicker to get over on the 457 than on a 186 however the visa has its downsides e.g. you are dependent on your employer, you don't get medicare unless your country has a reciprocal agreement (the UK does), you don't get state benefits (e.g. child care rebates / free schooling) and it can be harder to get loans/finance as a temporary resident. Depending on your circumstances the downsides of a 457 may not be an issue. If I had my time again I'd have waited and come over on a 186. It takes a little longer but you are in a much better position once you are approved and become a permanent resident. Fingers crossed we are all getting near the end of our waits! I'm conscious others have been waiting longer but I hoping this doesn't take longer than 8 months. Richo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to everyone Welcome on board Ozdream1 and good luck to you too! To get the most out of the forum you might want to share a summary of your details on the spreadsheet and on you messages.

Richo not in au yet, Richo, im aware that both 186 and 457 have their downs and ups, based on what u mentioned here, some of which r new to me thanks btw, 186 seems to be a better choice, hope the waiting could end earlier to us, fingers crossed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
