As per the below two links below link(Eligibility Criteria for DE) clearly says occupation must be in the relevant list https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-listing/employer-nomination-scheme-186/direct-entry-stream#Eligibility Where as this link (Eligibility Criteria for TRT) just says must have the required skills and qualifications for the position you have been nominated for. https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-listing/employer-nomination-scheme-186/temporary-residence-transition-stream#Eligibility Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nora Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 1 hour ago, Hex said: Thanks @Nora, she was granted her 457 in June 2018 (06/2018) and her occupation (based off that website) is on the MLT - see below. - It's frustrating as to why this needs to be so complicated. Ah yeah I see, her occupation is on the MLT. Sorry didn't see the attachment. So, I wonder why she is applying for 190. I mean her occupation is eligible for both visas. Probably because she wants to do things quicker;(not waiting the three years to apply for TRT), However, as far as I know, she is able to apply for Direct Entry without completing the years time on a 457. In any case, I do not see how a MA can profit from the type of visa an applicant applies for. They only charge the service fees, not the cost of the visa itself.. perhaps one takes more time than the other. On another hand, I am still waiting for my MA to come back from his holidays haha my application went from Received to Initial Assessment. Apparently, the action required is to click on "I acknowledge that the documents are complete" button. We applied on 05 March 2018. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, the action required is to click on "I acknowledge that the documents are complete" button. We applied on 05 March 2018. Yeah, those were my exact same thoughts. She would got the DE route (so she doesn't have to wait thr 3 years), and already has a positive skills assesment - hence, why I was confused as to why her agent is telling her to go for the 190. I'm hoping he is just not sure and once the question is asked would change his mind. I feel the 186 is way more secure (also then the 457 won't go to waste). Either way, it's an interesting one - i'll let you know the outcome if interested? As for your application - that's a weird "action required" and I'd be very dubious of that - as if the CO has already viewed the case, they would know if all documents are complete or if something is required. Let's see what your MA has to say (PS - when my MA was on holidays I spoke to another agent in his office to look at my file, not sure if you have the option, but if you are as impatient as I was - that could possibly be an option?).

But oh boy, haha these holidays are driving me nuts!!! Can't wait for my MA to get back. @ajk is your status showing "received"? We have done everything since March 2018; Medicals, Police Checks, all necessary translations, Form 80, etc. The only one thing I had to do again (but not because we were requested) but because they expired were our Australian Police Checks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is showing status as 'received' and last updated was on 16th march.I have still another 2 months time before my AFP, PCC and medicals to get expired. I had submitted Form 80 as well.

I rang the my MA's office today, but he is the only one in charge of all visa related cases. Yes..keep me posted about your friend, just for curiosity. Remind me, did your PR come through @Hex ?

Same boat, our medicals will expire on April. Prior to the 29/Dec/2018, the last date shown as updated was 3 April 2018 (when medicals were done). Best of luck.. I think we are nearly there!!!!!!
