DesiPants Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Congrats guys, good to hear of so many Grants! :) Would you guys know when does the processing time start from? Is it from the date you submit the bare minimum application or after the submission of a complete application? A complete application being the one with PCC and medicals done. I submitted my app in April but PCC is pending due to COVID closures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve rang so many times the past year and they either say they can’t discuss it, some have said that it’s not acceptable and Informed me an email has been sent to processing to prioritise it, then I hear nothing. They keep saying that Unfortunately there is a 10% margin. A lot of different answers. I'm in the same boat, mate. Waiting for 13 months.

restaurant.manager Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 If immigration starts working on weekends too, it'll take out 1000s of individuals from swear depression. Only visa applicants could understand that, this depression is more pandemic than any other disease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, occupation: carpenter Feb 2016: I Came to Australia from the UK on a working holiday visa with my partner Aug 2016: applied for a 457 sponsorship defacto Dec 2016: 457 granted May 2018: applied for 186 ENS using the same migration agents I used for the 457. The migration agents told me to do my health and police checks just so everything was ready to go as soon as they opened application. July 2020: visa and nomination status still stands at received countless calls to home affairs have got me nowhere they actually used covid 19 as an excuse recently. I did a formal complaint and now my migration agents are taking it to the ombudsman as they don’t know what to do either and said it’s unacceptable. I am at the point where I just want an answer as mentally I’m struggling to look forward and I have a family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Requested documents from department. Old owner transfer buisness under new company and abn. Department said new owner immediate family member of old owner they just transfer company under new abn and new company to just nominate to me. Because due to any reason department cancel old owner sponsorships 2018. New company registered 2015 have valid sponsorships and i have already 482 nomination transferred on 17 may 2018 under new company.

I think that's very likely. Many restaurants and cafés are suffering from the closures and may not open again, so there will be less need for migrants with hospitality skills. There is currently high unemployment in hospitality and it's likely to continue after the pandemic, so there will be plenty of Australians looking for those hospitality work. I don't know what the government will do, but they may require employers to try again to find an Australian to do the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzy_man10 Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Hi guys, How long have you been waiting since your last response to an S56 or RFI? Would love to hear your stories, I'm trying to gauge how long a typical wait is from RFI response and visa grant. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
