Totto Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Hey Guys, Been following this blog for 4 years now. Applied for 186 direct entry jan 21st 2018 No correspondence till last week. Nomination and Visa opened : DOCUMENTS REQUESTED FOR NOMINATION : Salary Rate Explanation VISA REQUESTS: UPDATED MEDICALS AND NEW AFP CHECKS. Got the medicals done today, feeling optimistic but a bit scared. I've hear that when you get a request for medicals, it means you're almost in. Anyways, fingers crossed. I was about to give up after 20 months of waiting for this last visa. 5 years of paperwork and around 55k spent. occupation: Graphic post press tradesperson Number of applicants :2 Low risk country (Italy/Portugal) 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have thought that for the last 12 months, seems closer to one now, but they may manage to limp on, reckon labour will win it easy at the moment so can't see Turnbull calling an early election. Do you think things will be that different under labour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hex Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Does anyone here know how important qualification(s) are on a 186 TRT. I've heard that with a TRT, it's not important at all, as you meet the work experience. With DE, I know you need a Skills assessment. I'm more curious to know if they even care in the TRT - from what i've heard, they don't / shouldn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please do not post things you do not know. Once you applied for PR (by lodging visa application), you can get Medicare and stop your private health insurance. I know it from personal experience. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't care about immigrants like us and thats evident in his comments on foreign policy. The only thing I would say would work in our favour is that he understands the economics of immigration and its contribution to the economy. I doubt he would reduce the target but he may get rid of occupations which are not as highly skilled as others/or in demand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott morrison used to be immigration minister during 2013-2014 under Tonny abbot government. During this calender year 126k visa were issued which is still highest number of visa in australian immigration history. Based on this history i guessed he won’t be as bad as potato. But i still believe this government immi policy will remain same as before. Edited August 21, 2018 by KazBaker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we will see another challenge for the leadership this or next week. Going to be interesting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
